Day 5: How Do We Know This is Working?

Yashobodhi is our guide for this year's Dharma immersion online and at Triratna Centres around the world as part of the 2018 International Practice Week. 

Day 5 revolves around evaluating the mind-training practice we've been engaged in all week. This is essential on any spiritual path, with any kind of method or doctrine, and Yashobodhi provides a clear set of questions to ask ourselves in checking out that the things we're doing are actually helping! The sense of agency and confidence we can gain from owning the practice in this way is a strong alternative for the routine, everyday kind of ego-clinging that can so often hold us back.

If you have any comments or questions about this point or the retreat itself, let us know in the comments here and we'll try to respond.

With thanks to West London Buddhist Centre.
