Mindfulness of the Interactive Domains
Ajahn Sucitto
Moving into the inter-reactive, inter-responsive world we can become distracted, scattered. Seeing the seeds or tendencies to act in worldly ways contributing to disparities and lack of fellowship, we hold our attention suitably, living with others calmly and peacefully.

Ajahn Sucitto
Life is interactive and irregular with moments regarded as too much or too little. We use community as a field of practice to span these, developing awareness, knowing how to manage the volitional formations, self making impulses that cause suffering.
