The importance of happiness | EN | Ajahn Nitho | Venabu 2025*

In the beginning of a retreat it is important to focus on deliberately creating happiness and beautiful states of mind, and this is exemplified in this talk by teachings of the Buddha and current teachers. When we are happy inside, we get to sit for a long time, and the longer we meditate, the more stillness and clarity is created for our development of wisdom. In between the meditation, staying in the present moment is important. In the present we are free from so much of our fault finding mind, which tend to dig into the negative parts of our past and fantasying about the future through the lenses of negativity creating anxiety and fear. In the present moment we are relatively free for a while.
