I have been practicing Buddhism for a year. Today, in Dharma class, I heard about Tonglen for the first time, but with little information . Your instruction is very helpful. ❤

mhmm

Its a test. To focus and ignore the hacking, coughing, sneezing amd nose blowing. 😅 You get used to it...

33:20

🙏🙏

Loved this! ❤ except for all of the ad interruptions. It made the meditation a bit of a challenge to stay focused.

How the actual fuck could he do this to me? May he suffer. May he suffer for all eternity. May she suffer eternally, too. Grief and rage suffocate and rape me. I want to die. I pray to die. I'm in hell with no escape. Submerged in darkness and turmoil. PANIC PANIC PANIC PANIC PANIC ENDLESS PANIC I WISH ETERNAL SUFFERING UPON HIM AND HER. MAY THEY SUFFER FOR ALL ETERNITY FOR WHAT THEY'VE DONE TO ME. I WANT TO DIE. I WANT TO DIE I PRAY TO DIE I BEG TO DIE I PLEAD TO DIE I'M IN HELL WITH NO ESCAPE PARALYZING PANIC DEBILITATING TORMENT I'M IN ANGUISHED AGONY I want to die. It's my only prayer: please please please Lord let me die. I DESPERATELY WANT TO DIE. 44 years of suffering with intermittent fleeting windows of relief. Please Lord let me die. Please. Please, I want to die. Please. HE FUCKING ABUSED ME. He's gone now. I'm left to suffer, and he has a replacement. He replaced me in an instant. He's given me SEVERE PTSD. I have debilitating paralyzing daily panic attacks. He raped my soul. He used me while he needed me and then discarded me like garbage. My soul is raped. The PTSD is unbearable. HE REPLACED ME. HE SHATTERED MY HEART. HE RAPED MY SOUL. I'm all alone and suffering in anguish, and they are living happily ever after together. The PTSD and the loneliness and the grief that he's given me... Makes it so that I can't breathe. I drowned. I suffocate. I die inside. I'm in hell with no escape. NO ESCAPE. He raped my soul: brutally viciously violently maliciously sadistically intentionally. Every night: nightmares. Every day: panic attacks. I want to die. Every morning I wake up in despair, desperately praying to die. I can no longer bear the pain. He betrayed and abandoned me, discarded me like garbage. I'm so fucking traumatized and terrorized and terrified. I'm dying inside. My soul is raped. He's given me severe PTSD. Severe! Severe! Severe! How and when will I ever heal?

Christian meditation is millenniums old. The Bible states to meditate upon the scriptures and on the Lord. The Catholic Church has a long history of contemplative prayer. The monks and nuns cornered the market on it.

21:28 three stages of tonglen

Thank you for this. I just wished there wasn’t ads. They interrupt the meditation which is disruptive for working with a challenging meditation

God Bless You ❤

I am proud , honoured and appreciative to translate your books ,Mrs.Chodron 🙏🏻

What i should do in the breaks of breath when i dont breath in or out ?

Life changing

"A Walking Mistake"? How did you know that is what I have often felt! Now, through God's merciful intervention, I am thrown back into my teenage reading of Thomas Merton, and the CAC and feel I have a chance of starting to be what I am meant to be in the years left to me, after more than three-quarters of a century in the world. God bless you. Please pray for me. PS Is your Therapy diary full for then next decade? PPS I only got up the courage to write a Comment by being very tired.

I love Pema!! She never fails me❤️❤️

12:37

I so love and appreciate her and thoroughly enjoy her remarkable ability to self-deprecate, but with great love and compassion for herself. Just hearing her do that, I've almost subconsciously been practicing that lately, and the effect it has had on me, has been remarkable. It has helped me to just lighten up on all judgement. I am Pema's age she, is a wonderful guide on this path even unto my dotage!

YOU Can never be given enough Thanks for the support you give so generously Thank you

His expression of this frame of mind is something I’ve looked for for a long time.

This is so valuable and beautiful, especially around 33:00 where he talks about how Jesus got the sick and ill to see beyond their illnesses to their true nature in God. That is what the miracles are all about

Prayer and meditation is everything.

Thank you God.

This is such a sweet way to practice Tonglen. It's taken a few years to land with me but Pema and Tara Brach really make it an accessible practice. So grateful for teachings like this that can bring me close to sanity... Sometimes 😄 Thanks for your humour and fearless good heart Pema 🙏

Simply a most wonderful person of our time. We are blessed. Thank you for letting me feel I can stay here in this time space reality now.

Thank you for the guidance and openness of your wisdom...your Life....

I am struggling with forgiveness at the moment, mainly self-forgiveness, ie forgiving myself for being a fu'kin' idiot.

Thanks

#AwarenessConsciousness

This is the way I've always meditated. Just seemed right...💖🙏

I've always felt that way...

Forgiveness is the opposite of _____. Fill in the blank

That passive voice trick really does work. Much appreciated, Mr Goldstein! Cheers! S

What an amazing spirit and how lucky we are to benefit from his deep wisdom and insights. May he rest in peace !

If you want to understand your mind, sit down and listen to this.

Thank you. Well timed.

Wonderful teachings.

Only thing I remember is aah aah aah .

When we can’t get over the high jump bar and wear ourselves out. God places it on the ground and we trip over it and fall into the arms of God Love that description

I am an ethical vegan, into yoga, meditation, I find it useful. I do not push my values on anyone nor am I ever shaming. However, what hurts my soul, in yoga class, meditation sessions and other places is when people who are complicit in the horrific treatment (one could start with the Dali Lama loves to eat lamb and of course his hosts know that) of so many beings (animals) wish upon them all of these wonderful states. Short of some sort of reconciliation (am I missing something?) excluding the being that one is complicit in torturing from these wishes solves things for me. I have great respect for my yoga teacher who no longer uses the traditional wishes (at least in my presence). Love Sharon, this is not about her beyond the topic being Loving Kindness.

Hi Sharon A circle of men in Austin ATX Had a conversation tonight Regarding Peaceful loving kindness I did a search for a meditation by Sharon This video came up Thankyou Spirit

might have helped me in a situation years ago... thank you

That mother, who lost her son... What a heart! ♥️♥️♥️ Bodhisattva heart. Truly amazing and so inspiring 🙏❤️

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I love Thich

Thank you for opens the door for my healings.

At about 46:56 I realized that I wasn’t doing Tonglen.. 😅🤣

Does anyone know who this women is doing the interview ?

This is so beautifully explained, I am inspired to turn more towards contemplative meditation. His voice is reassuring, loving and resonating like a cello with a soulful tune. Thank you so much!

33:00 (Marking the start of the meditation for future personal meditations) This is lovely. Gets me out of my self serving ego.

Oh I loved this so much !! I really needed to discover this practice 🙏🏼✨ thank you Prema and thank you Universe ❤️❤️❤️
