00:00 Being pro-active about wholesome thoughts; gladdening the mind is the first thing that should be done
05:01 The Dhamma is best learned in small groups; Western Buddhism misses the point
08:30 Transmission of joy, enthusiasm, delight for the Dhamma
10:28 The value of the Dhamma is great but repetition is essential; mindfully wake up; mind state influences mind objects
20:35 Investigating the state of mind is the first thing we do; then: how can we tweak this thing?
24:26 Ānāpānasati is like a jigsaw puzzle: seeing body, feelings, and mind working together
26:55 Diffuse anxiety and being unaware of unwholesome thoughts; fear is primary
31:10 Gladdening the mind is working with body and feelings: out of the past, out of the future; the breath is life-giving
38:19 Safety, security, comfort, and satisfaction, the basis of ānāpānasati
42:38 The various postures are about whether we are comfortable; 10 minutes for practice; confidence grows
46:15 The progress of skill development; feeling wealthy (sammā sankappa)
48:45 Unification of mind and perfect morality; the teaching is simple: don’t worry be happy
