10 Things I Learned from Reading Sapiens
Looking at the advancements in technology at present-the elaborate railway systems, the most iconic buildings, and the thinnest mobile phones that have everything-it almost feels impossible to believe that humans used to make do with sharpened stones and leaves as clothes. That is where the confusion comes from; we seem to forget that Homo sapiens, Wise humans as we unashamedly called our kind, is not the only species of humans that ever existed. Theories show that the early Sapiens killed off the Neanderthals. Whether it was due to inbreeding or murder, we won't know for sure. That's only one of the most su...

Man's search for meaning - Victor Frankl
Three "spheres"; abdominal cavity (lusts=black horse) chest cavity (white horse=honor/animal instincts) cranium (driver= mind) we are made of 6 paired opposites (6 married couples) logic/imagination are married and we see them as one (our thoughts) the mind is married to the body (he loves her and looks after her, protecting). What people overlook is the main core of his teachings; his daemon. this word sounds like another word that people associate with evil but has a completely different meaning, it means the Holy Spirit. This Spirit will lead a person and it is how he said he knew the right way- by follow the voice that was not his own thoughts speaking in his head. In the allegory of the cave, the people casting the shadows is your mind, as well as other peoples, that is what is controlling this world. if you go "past your mind" (you do this by shutting it off) then you are outside, the sun is the Holy Spirit that appears in what is now darkness- when you turn your own mind off.

Well, yes it was part of our dna. 🧬.Single mutation stopped brakes for neuron production in frontal lobes. Allowed us to abstract. No, Neanderthals buried their dead too. We just got better. No, we developed the ability to metabolize gluten. If life was great for the primitives why did the Australian aboriginal lifespan go from 30’s to 70’s after the white man came?
Lies lies and LIES. Stop teaching people LIES. Science is a new corporate religion to kill our souls and makes us a robots without free will. STOP THIS. We are not animals - we are souls in the bodies and demons in human skin wants to make us slaves forever. Wake up.
This book sometimes sounds like globalist propaganda. lol In any case, pretty much each point can be easily disproved, and some facts are inaccurate, based only on this short summary so I fear for the rest. For instance, the scientific era started 500 years ago, despite that all the sciences named here exist since at least the ancient Greeks?... Trying to see our evolution as linear, or divided into small boxes, is pretty naive and pointless. It's all way more chaotic than that.
How surprising, the author is an adviser for the WEF. 🤣
Every comment is a positive one. Wow. That's pretty hard to accomplish these days. You always have haters.
I believe in God and Jesus teachings. The bible as well. That it is inspired. These enlightened tools are within the same realm of Spiritual Awakening. So i avoid suffering less often and for too long. I can grieve, let go, detach and continue to live on much better honoring God and Jesus sacrifice. King Solomon existed the same time as Prince Sidartha. I believe they all leanrned from each other. Read Ecclesiastes in the Bible. It will help.
Atheists love to say that in Buddhism 'gods' don't exist despite Buddhists clearing worshipping Buddha as if the Buddha is a deity. When you look for an atheist who speaks of Buddhism to explain this contradiction, they word wrangle, or have a ton of other pretenses if they know anything more than superficial things; and you will find that most atheists speak as if they are so sure, and have vast amounts of knowledge on Buddhism, or really any religious subject even when they clearly don't even know basic things. That's atheists of all races who speak about Buddhism whether they claim to be Buddhist or not. The problem is that according to tradition, Mara, the "god" of evil tried to tempt Siddharta Gautama (the original Buddha). Lately, atheist Buddhists are trying to correct this clear contradiction by claiming (or rather lying by saying) Mara is a demon and not a god, but it gets worse. In Buddhism there is Sakra, a deva or god who rules one kind of heaven, who is married to Shachi also called a 'deva' or goddess; in fact Sakra is known by his other name of Indra, or king of the 'gods.' If he's king of the gods, then that means there are more than one god in Buddhism. So Buddhism doesn't live up to the godless people's ideal of a perfect religion without 'gods.' When their lies are called out, atheistic 'Buddhists' twist, and word-wrangle to claim that they 'meant no creator god.' This is a lie as Sakra is in fact a creator god, and Buddhists acknowledge his existence. When that lie is pointed out, they jump to another lie claiming Buddhism doesn't 'worship' a god. But, to the chagrin of lying atheistic people of any race (including Asians) who claim to be Buddhists, Chinese Buddhism has 24 protective devas who are in fact 'prayed' to, and 'venerated.' When their lie about not worshipping gods is called out, they claim not to 'worship' them, but they do 'venerate' them; in other words, more word-wrangling. When that lie or word twisting is pointed out, then they jump to saying that Mahayana Buddhism prays to Buddha, and others, but Theraveda Buddhism prays but doesn't expect anyone is listening. In other words, the major schools do pray to a deity of some sort, and all of the schools know this; and prayer, as even a novice or any complete atheist knows, is in fact a form of worship. So, when you get past the word-wrangling, or just flat out lies, Buddhism does in fact have gods; Buddhism does believe in a creator god, Sakra (Indra); and Buddhists do worship gods in the form of veneration (24 devas) alongside worshipping Buddha himself/itself. To all Buddhists who claim that Buddhism is an atheists dream of a religion without gods worshipped: STOP LYING!!!
It’s not that Buddhists do or do not believe in God, they simply don’t focus on that question
Craving is suffering. There is a way to let go of craving, suffering. He advised how
Budh means wisdom love! It is a a way of being, not a person! dha or dhi means mind. So it is not a person. The person with the most complete love without conditions was siddharta. That was the Buddha. He said he would never take a form again. Also not in dreams or visions. If some one says he met the buddha, he is mistaken.

Daoism's objection to animal sacrifice is actually an objection to Confucianism's rituals, as Confucians believe that observing traditional rituals (especially the Zhu's animal sacrifice) is a way to cultivate virtue.
I have the great fortune to be living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and have found a teacher here who teaches from the original Pali Canon. This has brought me light years ahead of what I was doing prior to studying with this Teacher. I have learned that Buddhism is a way of life, and changing the way that I used to think, it definitely is not a religion. Gotoma Buddha did not teach, rights, rituals or ceremonies as a path to Enlightenment. Great explanation of the Four Noble Truths…🙏
Very similar to hindu idea of tattva . Satva ,rajas and tamas

It is wisdom on our part not to regard this book and this video as mere opinion. We need intelligence and education from A philosopher teacher, who can give us a new story of existence. We have enough stories about what's going on in the sports media, enough stories about the sickening private live of movie moguls. It's important to educate ourselves and our children about the Philosophical underpinnings of our world in its history🖖🏻🌹

My ex suggested me this book. That's the only good thing she'd done to me.
The clarity with which this video presents the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path is remarkable. It's a reminder of the timeless relevance of Buddha's teachings in finding inner peace.
Buddhism is cool however I do not consider myself an atheist.

Author did well to explain but his knowledge is limited on God's topic.
Budhism has been recommended by scientists and well educated people
Basis of Budhism is reincarnation and law of karma . The necessity of Budhism is impermanence sufferings and concept of no soul . Budhism guides us to stay in human world and heavens until final stage is attained . 🙏🙏🙏

Very similar to the writings of John Milton .
I have been to some of the villages in Bihar where the Buddha taught the four noble truths. One of them is Bhatgawan mispronounounced as Bandagawan in the Mahaparinirvana story. Very educative. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

5:13 Where does Daoism say anything about a god?? I've read the Laozi and Zhuangzi and have never encountered any mention of anything roughly relating to a deity... Absolutely nothing. Other than the phrase "Mother Dao", which is meant completely to refer to nature as a whole, and specifically the creative parts of nature, not a literal "Mother Dao".Daoists believe in an order to the universe, which often manifests itself in a nebulous way. Things are the way they are, whether we'd like them to be that way or not. In some ways, it has some things in common with stoicism, but also things which it interprets in a completely different way.
Since when did Daoism is all about Laozi and Zhuangzi are considered the Bible? Do they call themselves creating Daoism? People give them that title "founders" to praise them but Daoism itself isn't that simple but rather a product of generations that is both before Laozi and Zhuangzi and after, that's the problem with people encounter it.
@@HolyFox2024 When Westerners got their hands on it, basically. I am not saying it is wrong for them to embrace it, but we do have a bad habit of patronizing traditional practitioners by stripping such philosophies of their supernal content and then claiming to be expressing it more authentically than peoples who have been connected to them for centuries. They are in constant search for something to replace the religion they were born with, usually Christianity, and see what they want to in these Eastern systems. Something seemingly purely rational while also having the legitimacy of being ancient.
Thank you for the video. You have explained Buddhism so well. I will watch this many times. Slowly I will learn and practice the Middle Path and more
Sound like noble lies fuck this fake ass shit
This is a very useful video, but the background music is ugly and very distracting.
Educative.
I do research on how and why Buddhism disappeared from Bihar. I realize there was no conversion to Hinduism. Hinduism quietly crept in and is running parallel to Buddhism.
Great summary❤
Thank you so much brother , I was unable to understand the 4 noble truths and your video made me understand it very well ❤
You're most welcome ❣️
