Being mindful of the space between thoughts is indeed a great teaching. Sometimes we get so caught up in the actors we forget they're strutting across a stage only to disappear behind the other curtain when they're done! Thank you Ajahn! Sadhu!
the samana is calm for he doesn't live in the future. if one were to be in the future one couldn't be calm. Is this the reason why a samana has no future?
Living in the future is living in thoughts of what we think the future will be. Also, the nature of thinking is to worry about what might happen in the future. So the samana’s not worrying about the future is why he stays calm.
There is always a future next moment....goal is to be where you are when you are there and be there as fully as possible. This is different from conventional reality. Eg. The buddha statue being delivered to monastery tomorrow. Will tomorrow happen as planned is uncertain and unknown. Universal reality vs conventional reality
