The teachings of Ven Ajahn Chah
Sitting for hours on end is not necessary. Some people
think that the longer you can sit, the wiser you must be. I have seen chickens
sit on their nests for days on end! Wisdom comes from being mindful in all
postures. Your practice should begin as you awaken in the morning. It should
continue until you fall asleep. Don’t be concerned about how long you can sit.
What is important is only that you keep watchful whether you are working or
sitting or going to the bathroom.
(Ajahn Chah)
