Acharya Goenkaji:
Understand Dhamma with your own experience by meditating daily, morning and evening.
Also it is advisable to periodically attend a 10-day, 20-day, 30-day or even a longer meditation course as time permits, to go deeper into the truth.
Keep checking to see if Dhamma is deepening within, if it is manifesting in your daily life.
Check if the mind is growing more wholesome, or are you just misleading yourself that you are growing in Dhamma?
Also check that your daily sittings have not turned into an empty ritual by asking yourself, “Am I really feeling the sensations?”
And if yes, “Am I really seeing and appreciating them as impermanent, (anicca)?”
And if yes, “Am I getting established in equanimity?”
🌷 These are the benchmarks.
