Ajahn Brahm discusses sutta MN128: Upakkilesa Sutta regarding the obstacles that can arise in the last stages before entering deep meditation (jhana). This teaching was given on a retreat during Ajahn Brahm’s visit to Anukampa in the UK. Read MN 128 on Sutta Central: https://suttacentral.net/mn128/en/sujato?lang=en&layout=plain&reference=none&notes=asterisk&highlight=false&script=latin “A second discourse set at the quarrel of Kosambi, this depicts the Buddha, having failed to achieve reconciliation between the disputing mendicants, leaving the monastery. He spends time in the wilderness before encountering an inspiring community of practicing monks. There he discusses in detail obstacles to meditation that he encountered before awakening", Sutta Central.
