Mindfulness of the Hindrances

Date: 2021-08-05 Thursday

For this sit we’ll be exploring the five hindrances, but in a way showing how they are opportunities instead of problems. The Buddha included the five hindrances – grasping, aversion, sloth-and-torpor, restlessness and doubt – as the first of the fourth foundation of mindfulness, and therein lies the secret about how to approach them.

As we develop mindfulness toward the hindrances we see that they no longer grip us as they once did, in an opening of freedom that is incremental. We hope to see you there. This exploration can be very helpful on the spiritual path.
