In this Dhamma teaching, Ayya Brahmavara explores how to work skilfully with shame, remorse, regret and self-criticism through the lens of the Buddha’s teachings. In Buddhist practice, the qualities of hiri (moral conscience or shame at wrongdoing) and ottappa (moral concern or fear of wrongdoing) are important guardians of ethical conduct, helping us recognise harmful actions and develop greater mindfulness. However, there is a vital difference between wholesome remorse, which encourages us to acknowledge our mistakes, apologise, make amends and learn from our actions, and unwholesome self-blame, self-hatred and shame that keep us trapped in the past. This talk explores how Buddhist meditation, mindfulness, self-compassion and the cultivation of wholesome qualities can help us restore our moral compass, respond more wisely to difficult emotions and let go of unproductive guilt. Discover how to balance moral responsibility with kindness towards ourselves, learn from our mistakes without becoming defined by them, and continue along the Noble Eightfold Path with greater awareness, wisdom and compassion. A valuable reflection for anyone interested in Theravāda Buddhism, the Buddha’s teachings, Buddhist psychology, mindfulness meditation, ethical conduct and practical ways to bring the Dhamma into everyday life. #Buddhism #BuddhistTeachings #Shame #SelfCompassion #Mindfulness #BuddhistMeditation #TheravadaBuddhism #Dhamma #HiriOttappa #SelfForgiveness
