Below is a recent piece from the site – it was very hard to choose just one article to preview here! I really love the idea of getting to know our dark thoughts so that they won’t get the better of us… Sayadaw U Tejaniya explains how taking an interest in life as it is can lead to liberation.

Your Mind Melds Remain Mysterious
Your Mind Melds Remain Mysterious I love it when science discovers via technology and study that something incredibly mysterious is going on and are then forced to speculate how those findings could possibly be so mind-bending, and how or why the actual mechanics of the discovery remain largely unknown!
