Is It Possible to Change the Channel?

i just want to encourage all of us to hold it carefully and tenderly, to remember where we've put it when we wake up at night. Recently sat a retreat with a bicunalio at the bary centre for buddhist studies. A monk who practises very intensively. He spends five days a week in retreat, in silence, sitting all day. And actually, he sits down to meditate, and he gets up seven and a half hours later to have a lunch, take a shower, maybe rest a little bit. Then he sits down, gets up another seven and ahalf hours later. Ah, we have to do some grief work around losses and wounds
