5 Hindrances to Self-Mastery

5 Hindrances to Self-Mastery

1. Sensual desire (sight/touch/taste/smell/hearing) = Am I addicted?

2. Ill will / aversion = Am I feeling a negative emotion?

3. Dullness / heaviness = Am I unmotivated?

4. Restlessness = Is my mind jumping from though to thought?

5. Sceptical doubt = Am I indecisive?

Rain (is the solution)

Recognise which one you're experiencing

Accept that's what you're experiencing

Investigate why you're experiencing it

Non-identify with that experience: 'i am not the body, i am not the mind, i am not my emotion'

Please share stories of methods how you are overcoming each of them :)
