Talk: Talk: 20010706-Larry_Rosenberg-IMSRC-q_a_practice_cant_be_separated_from_living_part_iii-8723 Leandra Tejedor.json Start_time: 00:22:19 Display_question: Can you speak about wise action? Keyword_search: Buddha, Rahula, beneficial, reflection, joyful, living, awareness, problem, future, past, present moment Question_content: Questioner: (inaudible)Sitting or living… putting it into practice…something I have gotten involved with that has happened. What’s the value in that and how do you deal with it before it happens? Larry: The Buddha gave very good advice to his son, Rahula. Now, this is kind of… it's sort of textbookish. Life is much more dynamic, and fast, and not so easy to do this, but it's not a bad thrust. Before you act, reflect on your action. Maybe it's just a second or two. Sometimes we don't have more time than that. Is it beneficial for you, and others, or is it harmful? If it's harmful, don't do it. If it's beneficial, do it. Then you start to act, whether it's verbal or physical. And maybe you've concluded, it is beneficial for myself, and for others. Then you start to live. And in the midst of it, you see that it really isn't. I thought it was, but look, I'm hurting someone. I'm hurting myself. Stop. Learn how to stop. Apologize. If it's if it's you that's begun to cause this, extricate yourself. And then the third is after it's over. Even if it's over, let's say it seems beneficial, and you're done with it. Break_line: And then sometime after, it reflect back. Was it really beneficial? So, there is value in after the fact reflection, and how do you catch it more quickly? So it is that you don't spend your whole life, just reviewing your past. I understand, but that's what practice is. That's what we're practicing. In other words, it's this moment. And that's part of what I meant by interest. If you're interested in learning how to live, it really can be quite joyful. It's quite an adventure. It's quite a challenge. I know these are corny words, but rather than medicinal, sometimes well, some of the questions are too medicinal for me. Break_line: Sort of like, I have a fungus. What herb do I put on it to stamp it out? It's about living, so that awareness can help. It's interesting to see how we live. It's not just to keep fixing things. We get obsessed with problems. We're incredibly problem oriented. And when you're very problem oriented, then you're very solution oriented. And if you're very solution oriented, you're not as interested in what is, because what is, is the problem. And yet what the teachings are saying is the best solution is, not jumping over the problem, but into, and through the problem, comes something that can be truly beneficial. Break_line: So, I don't have a formula for it. But also, as practice matures, you more, and more, do keep up with the moment. And then you lose it, and you come back. And it's true we spend so much of our life in the future, and in the past, but part of what practice is, is starting to more, and more, inhabit the present moment. End_time: 00:25:30
