Questions
Q1: Are the five spiritual powers and five faculties one and the same? Faith, energy, mindfulness, concentration, and wisdom.
Q2: What is the best way to dedicate merits to a sick and/or dying friend? |
Q3: Do you have any advice for dealing with significant physical discomfort, without giving into sensuality as a means of distraction? I know I should try to be mindful and equanimous but this becomes difficult as the severity of discomfort increases. Thank you!
Q4: May I know if the feeling of intuition is the same as what we call gut feeling? And whether we can trust our intuition? Our intention?
Q5: Do you believe in the law of attraction? Meaning, if we think of something often, then will we get it?
