 Questions

- I always try to listen to the Dharma talks from various respected teachers like yourself ... on various topics during my meditation and this really helps me to understand the Dharma and also I can concentrate deeply. I am worried that this habit of mine may not be the correct way to progress in meditation.

- Are people good by heart but harsh by mouth true Buddhists?

- it is said that every meditation subject such as kasina has it's own nimitta. What is the nimitta in metta meditation?

- I’ve heard Ajahn talk about collectedness? Can Ajahn share more about that and say if there are any good reference for it?

- Can you please explain some discrepancies in the Buddhist concept on Rebirth please? What is written in the texts does not match with what I have read and heard more recently.

- you share about some Thai elders who are enlightened, but you rarely mention non Thai monks. Is it because non Asians, or people with western education are too analytical and find it difficult to get into Samadhi?
