Show Notes
In this conversation, Tyler shares his practice of breathwork and attempts to change the noted dissatisfaction into satisfaction. Dhammarato points out a few mistakes in working with the breath and hones in on meditation with an intention of "cleaning the mind of the garbage" instead. He gives a definition to the "racing mind" and identifies "mind moments" as snapshots in which one can use Sati to see Dukkha and get rid of it immediately.
