When the time for Thai king birth day that
time all “Mahapanya students” went to the meditation in “wat phukhulong”. So I
have to write down my own experience here like this. I would like to write
about my three days meditation experience. When I was arrive that place I feel
so happy and peace because that place very quiet place, beautiful place, temple
place and forest and mountain place. Why we have gathered there to practice
meditation, it’s because our hearts and mind do not understand what should be
understood. Actually we don’t know what is wrong and what is right, our mind is
not calm, not restrained. They are swayed by doubting and agitation.
There are 103 monk and novice come from
different-different temple, school and district, we stay together and to
practice meditation together. There have many Buddhist lecture they teach about
Samatha (concentration), Vipassana (insight) meditation and walking meditation
very well. And so many important topic like a Samadhi(meditation),
sati(mindfulness), Citta(mind), characteristics of mind, seven enlightenment
factors, 4o meditational objects, Thai chanting etc.
During the meditation there is the time for training
the mind and nothing else. Whenever the mind is affected by sense impingement,
whenever there is a feeling or sensation in the mind, just let it go. Whether
those sensations are good or bad is unimportant. We don’t create suffering over
the breath being too long or too short, sitting and walking meditation are in
essence the same, differing only in terms of the physical posture used.
During the three days we flow the time
routine very well. Like’s morning Chanting, meditation, breakfast, walk for
alms-round in Temple, lunch, personal time rest, evening chanting etc. last day
we got the certificates after that we take group photo all together I think
that all are so happy that time. I always remember that time because that is my
first or new experience day. I was very careful about rules and regulations
that time. I would like thanks for “MP.V, MP.V staff lecturer and wat phukaulong
Temple.” At last, this is my own experience. “May all beings be happy. “May all
beings be free from suffering.”
