“It’s your defilements reacting.”
- - -
Question: After prolonged meditation, with mindfulness of the breath, I get a very strong nauseous feeling, which persists for a number of hours or a few days, during which eating has to be forced. So how do I manage this?
Tan Ajahn: When you go to the movies, do you experience this?
Lay: No, Tan Ajahn. Only after meditation. Going to movies, I’m ok.
Tan Ajahn: So, it is your defilement. It is your desire or your kilesa reacting. It wants to prevent you from meditating. It creates this obstacle. You should ignore it because other people don’t have this kind of experience.
