About this listen

In the second installment of our series, Phramaha Piya Jundadal and I dive into the mental landscape of the modern world. Drawing from his travels and years of meditation, Piya observes that 99.9% of people—regardless of their background—are in a constant struggle with their own thoughts. We discuss the "monkey mind" and how our modern habits of high consumption have fractured our attention spans, making a well-trained mind more essential than ever for happiness. Piya explains why "cutting off" from society in intentional doses is a vital act of mental hygiene and offers a blunt look at how laziness can become a primary obstacle to a meaningful life. This is a deep dive into making inner peace a daily priority, moving beyond theory into the practical discipline required to master one’s own consciousness.
