These are the five hindrances that impede our meditation practice towards mental development. They are the obstacles that we often encounter in our progress on the spiritual path. The first of which is our pursuits for sensual pleasure or desire. We should also watch out for the other four minefields of ill will, sloth & torpor, restlessness & worry, and doubts. In order to combat them, we need to have strong mindfulness, loving kindness, perseverance, peace of mind, and wisdom. So do not give up your fight to overcome the five hindrances.
