Question: Dear Sayadaw! How to stop talking and doing when we have desires to do so?
“If you want to talk or to do, you should be mindful on desire at the present moment; If not being mindful you will talk and do as you wish. The cause of talking and doing is our ignorance and attachment. That’s why you should try to be mindful your own wish or desire to talk and do at the present moment. If you’re able to be mindful on her desire to talk and do, you may know about the nothingness of our wish or desire.”
