Mental Formations
March 27, 2011. 105-minute dharma talk given in English, with consecutive translation into Thai, with Thich Nhat Hanh on the third day of the Understanding Our Mind retreat at Mahachulalongkornrajavidhayalaya Buddhist University (MCU) in Bangkok, Thailand.
Thay speaks about mental formations and the nature of their manifestation in the mind. Specific topics covered in this talk include being present, the five mantras (first two only), pebble meditation, and non-duality. On subject and object: each of the mental formations have a subject and an object and they manifest at the same time. On cause and effect: this is because that is. On the Five Skandha: there are five sections that represent form, feelings, perceptions, mental formations, consciousness but they manifest from the same thing.
