When you sit in meditation, what are the things that can bother you? These “things” are called “vikaras.”

So, what are the things that can bother you? The first thing that could come into your mind is lust. Second, greed can bother you. The third thing that could bother you is anger towards somebody. Jealousy can bother you. Entanglement or attachment, to somebody or something can bother you. So, it’s these four or five things that bother you.
