We can develop the causes and conditions that will support our meditation practice. Virtue and right view are important foundations that guide our practice toward its liberating potential. Skillfully working with the five hindrances, particularly the forces of sensual desire and ill will, support the development of the seven awakening factors. By cultivating these conducive conditions, concentration and insight develop. - Note: the first couple of minutes of this talk have some slight acoustic issues which resolve after a few minutest.
