Based on past questions and conversations with students, MOI teacher Mark Wiesman discusses the following five topics:
1. Working with difficulties, especially with events from the past and worries about the future.
2. What's the purpose of this path? What to do when practice feels like it's not working or going very well.
3. Counteracting the Five Hindrances of sensual desire, ill-will, sloth & torpor, restlessness & worry, and doubt.
4. The various Buddhist traditions.
5. Nirvāṇa / Nibbāna
While unpacking these topics, Mark emphasizes the importance of periodical reflection. He suggests frequently asking the following: "What do I want from my practice? Where do I want to go with this? Is their wisdom to be gained here? What can I learn from this?" In addition, he tells us to remember the importance of kindness and compassion to ourselves and others.
