I listened to this desana yesterday, and I felt a moderate sensation of joy, as if I just realized that no sense pleasure, be it of the mind or the senses, would ever make me lastingly happy.
I thought that maybe this sensation would go away, but at work today, I was just told that my Ph.D contract, what I thought Id be working with for the next three or so years, would be terminated. But I wasn’t angry. I didn’t feel any resentment towards anybody. I don’t know if this is even makes me Sotapanna Anugami, but I’d say it’s a step closer.
I greatly look forward to these new posts, Lal! I am constantly looking for any sense pleasure that would be worth doing at the expense of other people, the same way Diogenes looked through the agora with his lantern looking for a wise man. Experiencing Sotapanna phala would just be relieving since it would make such inquiry obsolete.
