Clarity: The Unobscured Mirror Behind Delusion
Maitrīsārā explores the second fetter, doubt and indecision which Bhante calls vagueness. The antidote is clarity but also faith. This wide ranging talk weaves together both theoretical and personal themes and differentiates between wholesome and unhelpful doubt. It explores why we might get stuck in doubt, and how to work with it. The talk draws on a sutta from the Samyuta Nikaya about what feeds doubt. And what therefore counteracts it.
