In this Dhamma talk on 14 June 2026, Luang Por Yao emphasises that spiritual progress begins with a humble and respectful attitude towards the Triple Gem, which allows a practitioner to truly listen and perceive the Dhamma. He recounts the historical significance of the First Turning of the Wheel of Law, where the first disciple attained enlightenment by realising the impermanence and unsatisfactoriness of all conditioned phenomena. The teaching highlights that our internal suffering stems from ignorance and attachment, likening our identification with the self to a person fruitlessly chasing their own shadow. To overcome this, Luang Por encourages a diligent practice of mindfulness and merit-making, urging listeners to relinquish their attachment to the physical body before death inevitably returns its elements to nature. Ultimately, the purpose of the discourse is to foster Right View, transforming a clouded mind into one that is bright, clear, and firmly established in the truth of non-self.
