1
Mindfulness helps us to recognize the pain.
2
The pain can be a physical pain or a mental pain.
3
And our practice is not to exaggerate,
4
because to meditate is to look deeply and to recognize things as they are.
5
The Buddha spoke about the second arrow.
6
When we learn the art of taking care of the pain,
7
handle the pain inside, we should know the teaching about the second arrow.
8
When someone gets an arrow, there is the pain in his body.
9
But if a second arrow comes and hits exactly at the same spot, and then the pain is not only double,
10
it can be ten times stronger.
11
when you have a painful feeling whether that painful feeling comes from the body or comes from your perception
12
you should recognize it as it is and not exaggerate
13
you should not amplify the pain with your fear or anger or imagination wrong perceptions.
14
Because the fear, the anger makes the pain in you multiply by ten times at least.
15
You imagine that you are going to die very soon.
16
You imagine that you cannot stand that kind of fear and anger.
17
Maybe you will die.
18
So that is the kind of amplification that we should avoid, the second arrow.
19
If it is a minor physical pain, we know that it is only a minor physical pain.
20
If it is a feeling of anger born from some wrong perception,
21
we should know that that it is a feeling of anger born from some wrong perceptions.
22
If it is a strong emotion we should know that this is only an emotion.
23
And you are much more than an emotion.
24
When you are overwhelmed by a painful emotion
25
you think that you are only that emotion but in fact you are much more than an emotion you are form,
26
feeling, perceptions, mental formation and consciousness and the territory is large and your emotion is just a small thing
27
an emotion is something that comes stays for a while and finally it has to go like a storm.
28
Why do we have to die because of an emotion?
29
And that kind of insight is very crucial.
30
We have to practice.
31
We have to see the emotion as only an emotion.
32
And we have to learn how to handle that emotion.
33
We are not afraid.
34
when the emotion comes, we should go back to our breathing.
35
It should relax our body.
36
We should get inside that this is only an emotion,
37
and I am capable of taking care of it by the practice of mindful breathing and embracing my emotion.
38
And if we know how to handle the emotion, we will be able to help our children, the young people to do the same.
39
Breathing in, I know this is only...
40
One emotion.
41
Thank you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
