00:00:00 Habit formation is fundamental
00:08:05 Remembering to be here now
00:11:25 Being a victim of rules and rituals
00:13:54 Having wholesome thoughts: slapping the water
00:20:11 Mahasi noting but with a fit mind
00:22:43 Misery was the motivation
00:27:32 The Buddha taught us to see the conditioners
00:30:57 We don’t accept feelings as they are
00:34:01 Thoughts are like the weather
00:38:30 We want to keep doing the wrong things
00:48:17 Going back to the foundations of the house of cards
00:53:43 Hindrances will arise
00:57:20 Being in the moment is more time in the senses
01:02:04 Now is the time to practice relaxing
01:06:48 There’s only ever one more step
01:14:33 There is no permanent self: it arises and passes away owing to conditions
01:19:56 The Dhamma is wholesome manipulation through joy
01:28:35 5-10 minutes of wholesome thought six times a day in seclusion
01:31:32 Object and subject
01:39:03 Just be in the present moment
