It is impossible to do that in a single comment or even a long post. I would have done it if that was possible! One needs to keep reading and understanding concepts. I myself am learning, too. Buddha Dhamma is like the deep ocean; one can go deeper with more understanding. Once in a while, you come across a “breakthrough,” like the concept of “distorted sanna,” which opens up a new, life-changing view. That is what happened to me in 2023.

  • Don’t try to understand everything in one session. You seem to stress yourself out by doing “marathon sessions.” That is unhealthy, meaning it could be stressful and may affect the physical body, too.
  • Please take the time to re-read what I wrote above and the links. I don’t think you even read what I wrote above carefully (let alone the links) before responding!
  • Try to understand the concepts, and avoid hanging onto every word I write. Sometimes, it is difficult to express ideas in words, and what I write in a particular sentence could be misinterpreted. (Of course, if I write something with apparent errors or contradictions, it is OK to point that out.) If you read a post in its entirety (and the links), you should be able to get the general idea.
