This is why ppl r misguided thinking that you need to be sowan first to practice
nobody will become sowan without sowan magga citta viti. Sowan magga viti arises with following chitasikas...
- ekagga
- nekkama, avyapada, avihinsa sankappa
- vaca virati
- kamata virat
- ajiva virati
- sati
- virya
- panna
panna does NOT arise without co-existing factors.
you have to PRACTICE getting these factors frequently in your vitis..
listening to damma alone wouldn't cut it no matter what concentration you are listening with.
