Beginning with highlighting the importance of forbearance, Ajahn Anan then goes on to relate an occasion when Luang Pu Chah taught a couple of Catholic nuns who came to see him. He said that really all religion is emptiness.

2021.02.17 | As the Buddha emphasised, whoever sees the Dhamma, sees the Buddha. By realising that all conditions are inconstant, we see his Dhamma body. We understand that the Buddha and the Dhamma are the same thing.

In this talk Ajahn Anan explains how there is a natural path to the practice: getting lost in worldly pleasures, seeing the pointlessness and suffering inherent in that kind of happiness, seeking a way out, finding that path, and finally, going beyond dukkha. It can take time though, and we may get lost in worldly delights for a while. But if we stick with it, we’ll make it.

A talk on the occasion of Magha Puja (February 26, 2021) by Venerable Ajahn Anan Akincano.
“Whether lying down or sitting in a quiet place, one must put down all sense stimulation. Be determined to train one’s mind, to make one’s mind peaceful, and to be concentrated in samadhi. Make the mind greater than the ordinary level that already possesses goodness, such as giving alms and keeping the moral precepts. But the thinking still doesn’t stop, so we then train the mind to be concentrated in samadhi. Then we will see the enormous value of the teachings of the Lord Buddha. This is the principle of Dhamma practice and of developing the mind (bhavana). However you practice, may you all, the monks and laity, see the Dhamma in this life.”
2021.02.16 | If you spent a whole year building a strong and beautiful home, what would it take for someone to convince you to pull it down? When the mind has resided in this body since birth and is clinging so tightly to it, how can we get it to let go?

English devotional chanting for the occasion of Magha Puja.
2021.02.15 | Really, there is no one who walks the path; no one who sees the Dhamma, no one who knows the Dhamma, and no one who is freed from suffering. Everything is empty. This is how the awakened mind sees things.
