    This talk blew my mind about 9 months ago & it was almost too much. So lucky to have access to this teacher & teachings but I’m feeling more & more confused. I’m starting to think I both know nothing & everything. “I still don’t understand anything” and yet I now know “everything changes”. Whatever has the nature to arise -will pass away. I’m glad to listen again but I’m still horrified that everything changes - I have no “ah-ha” moment, I feel lost. I feel like I’m doing meditation / Buddhism wrong - the farther I go with vispassana the more I fragment & any foundation I had dissolves. I have nothing to hold on to

      A complete Buddhist practice is 3-dimensional: Ethics, Wisdom and Tranquility (or Sila, Panna and Samadhi, in the Pali language). Meditation (Samadhi practice) is only one part, so it's perfectly understandable that you feel disoriented and unstable. You're like a boat without oars. To stabilize your meditation practice, please continue to study the Buddha's teachings, and do your best to follow a path of ethical conduct. The monk and translator Bhikkhu Bodhi has published several books of collected excerpts from the Suttas (discourses). One which many people recommend as a starting place is "In the Buddha's Words". Reading the discourses will give you some sense of continuity with this 2,600 year old tradition, that you are participating in. The problems of human nature and human life have not changed, even if customs and technologies have. In Buddhism, a basic foundation of ethics is contained in the Five Precepts, and the Noble Eightfold Path. The Five Precepts are: to refrain from killing other living beings, to refrain from stealing, to refrain from using sex in a way that hurts self or others, to refrain from lying, and to refrain from using alcohol or drugs which diminish one's sense of responsibility. The Noble Eightfold Path is the fourth element of the Four Noble Truths, which the Buddha taught in his first discourse. It lays out the eight factors of a practitioner's progress toward freedom from the suffering inherent in material existence. When I first started investigating Buddhism, I was surprised to find that good old Wikipedia has a lot of information about definitions and concepts in the various schools of Buddhist practice. RUclips has an enormous number of videos of "Dhamma talks", "Sutta studies" and other lectures and discussions. The two people whose videos I watched most when I started out were Joseph Goldstein, and Bhikkhu Bodhi. So I got the two perspectives of a good lay teacher and a scholarly monastic. Also, there is a group based in the UK called the Vipassana Fellowship (vipassana-dot-org), which hosts a 10-week online meditation course that I took myself 10 years ago. There are daily lessons which give a systematic presentation of the Buddha's life and major teachings, along with texts and audio files introducing several kinds of meditation. There is an online forum available for student discussions, and the staff answers student questions. I found it to be a very good introduction, at a reasonable cost. I hope this helped you. May you be well, safe, and happy, and make your way to liberation.

      Thank you so much for your response@@MsLeenite . From what you wrote - it seems you are pointing to study the ancient texts & to follow ethics. Ethics- I am working on now becoming a vegetarian & to be more accurate in speech (less lying to myself & others). I am taking courses with IMC and with my vispassana mentor in Canada - so it’s reassuring I’m attempting to do the things you suggest. I am surprised how hard meditation is for me presently. I resist embodiment, feeling my breath & truly seeing the emotions, thoughts & physical sensations that arise. I’m hoping to come out the other side sooner rather than later as there is much discomfort presently. All the best to you on your path. Warm & kind regards, Judy

    Dear Joseph, thank you so much for your clear and loving elucidation of Buddha’s precious teachings. It’s hard to express in words my gratitude to you for your many years of effort to gain this level of wisdom which you are sharing with all of us. Connecting to your teachings through the internet feels like a true miracle. Hearing Buddha’s teachings from your gentle voice and also seeing your face conveys the meaning in deeper ways more quickly than only reading books. It is also wonderful to see that there are so many people who are on this path. May loving kindness, truth and peace prevail on earth.

    How do you learn to have love for inconsiderate people who keep triggering your trauma?? I have trauma around banging. My alcoholic father would lie on the floor and pound on it (loudly) while ragging about God and Jesus, etc, when I was a child. Now, I have a millennial neighbor who REFUSES to EVER take her 2 yr old child outside, but let's him run around the apt. These apts are connected and have VERY cheap, particle board floors. I can hear it when people just walk. The kid, who is already very obese, running in the apt is really loud. It sounds like someone is bowling!! And it throws me into a rage that I can't control. It makes me mad that she's so lazy (can't put that damn phone down) she's willing to ruin that kid's health. Kids need fresh air, sunlight, connection with nature, and exercise!! And SHE, when she was pregnant, complained about other neighbors for THE SAME THING!! How can you have compassion for such an utterly inconsiderate, hypocritical person?? Also, how does one be connected and present in the body, yet not identify with it?? Any thoughts would be appreciated. I don't want to be so angry. Thanks.

    Karma = Action + Causality = Nataraja (Lord of the Dance). “There are no mistakes in the Universe” (Allan Watts), hence the line by Rumi: “Judge a moth by the beauty of its flame.” Be aware rather of the supposed size and ripples of your Karmic Ego in this immense Universe. 😃

    A lot of wonderful things in this talk. However, I believe it would be worth considering a way to restate the idea that "no one makes us feel a certain way". Of course we have an impact, sometimes powerful, on each other. Be it through kindness or cruelty or a whole range of other emotional communication. I have latitude in my response but I certainly have emotional responses to the words and behavior of others. The words "no one makes me feel a certain way" carries a sense of detachment that verges on insular. Perhaps we might say that "we can learn new ways of responding to the words and actions of others".

    Canzona di Bacco In occasione del carnevale a Firenze venivano composti canti carnascialeschi per i trionfi, rappresentazioni allegoriche o ispirate alla mitologia. La Canzona di Bacco, composta dal Magnifico signore di Firenze per una di queste sfilate, descrive il dio del vino, che avanza accompagnato dalla sposa Arianna e seguito da satiri, ninfe e altri personaggi. Quant’è bella giovinezza, che si fugge tuttavia! Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Quest’è Bacco e Arïanna, belli, e l’un dell’altro ardenti: perché ’l tempo fugge e inganna, sempre insieme stan contenti. Queste ninfe ed altre genti sono allegre tuttavia. Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Questi lieti satiretti, delle ninfe innamorati, per caverne e per boschetti han lor posto cento agguati; or da Bacco riscaldati, ballon, salton tuttavia. Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Queste ninfe anche hanno caro da lor esser ingannate: non può fare a Amor riparo, se non gente rozze e ingrate: ora insieme mescolate suonon, canton tuttavia. Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Questa soma, che vien drieto sopra l’asino, è Sileno: cosí vecchio è ebbro e lieto, già di carne e d’anni pieno; se non può star ritto, almeno ride e gode tuttavia. Analisi del testo Quattrocento Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Mida vien drieto a costoro: ciò che tocca, oro diventa. E che giova aver tesoro, s’altri poi non si contenta? Che dolcezza vuoi che senta chi ha sete tuttavia? Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Ciascun apra ben gli orecchi, di doman nessun si paschi; oggi sian, giovani e vecchi, lieti ognun, femmine e maschi; ogni tristo pensier caschi: facciam festa tuttavia. Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza. Donne e giovinetti amanti, viva Bacco e viva Amore! Ciascun suoni, balli e canti! Arda di dolcezza il core! Non fatica, non dolore! Ciò ch’ha a esser, convien sia. Chi vuol esser lieto, sia: di doman non c’è certezza.

    Some quick notes that I took while listening to it, maybe someone will find them useful. Nonetheless, I still recommend watching the whole thing, very insightful. karma - our actions bring results skillful/unskillful - the point of reference is the motivation behind the action the cause for metta to arise is seeing the goodness in people, to see what is good in people nobody makes us feel a certain way

    the self is a pattern? Who recognises that this succession of thoughts is a pattern? We see there is no substrate? Who sees? how are we ever going to see the self. The self is He who sees, you cannot see the self, you can only be the self.The Self is not peace, it is absolute bliss. Being aware of thoughts is not going to help. Neither is trying to improve your mind, as this means you are using your views of what is good and what is bad. Who says this is right? The buddha? If you are looking for the self, you need to look elsewhere. aanany@live.com

      Clearly, you have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER about Buddha's Teachings. It's like you are someone who has just started his Kindergarten Buddhist Education. That's why, you are asking all kinds of questions, but making mistakes. Now, I am not saying this in a Derogatory Sense AT ALL. I am just stating a FACT. You just don't know. That's all. If you want to know why you are wrong, you need to go through Proper Sources. I will share One of the BEST Sources with you, IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. If not, forget about it. You will Continue to be Wrong. That's All ...

  • @lumri2002

    Some of the things that make Buddhism appealing include learning to be perceptive and balance. One doesn't loose connectivity with other non-Buddhist people who practice good religion or philosophy. For example one can easily perceive the goodness of other people of different belief or religion without abandoning the practice of Buddhism. In such manner Buddhists are complementary and not dualistic. As an exercise, one may watch the short video and see if one may reflect the good point being shown.

    Useless teaching. "there is a body" that is too general. Aviously there is a body. But become mindfull about the diferent bodyparts. Then he jumps to breathing. No sistematic order. And look at his eyes, they are restless, moving around. There is no calmness in him. Just an empty talker.

      Do you think maybe you are assuming too much from this one little video? There are a million different reasons why this turned out the way it did, when it did, and anyway, this is just a little recording of part of a session, no? Near innumerable different variables to why he went about things the way he did, why his eyes may have moved as they did, what was happening to him and his life, in general, etc, and so on... I’m just saying, maybe you might want to be a little less presumptuous, a little less cynical, and a little more curious about why anything here is what it appears to be to you, instead of assuming and projecting?

In which direction prayer should be offered. How buttering should be done to pardon your sin etc. Here is a teaching that makes your concepts observed and cleared at subtle mental level and make one enlightened by own efforts. 🙏🙏🙏

    Thank you for your expression on the essential points Joseph. I recall a lovely feeling arise in my heart some years back when my desire to 'know what it was and is' from sincere study, just popped in rays of giggling as something occured and everything changed. Yet my eyes could not register any change. Everything was exactly the same apart from an absence of what became apparent as 'the desire to acquire' by more study. I refer to it as a flash of 'en lighten-up (ment)'. Ocassionally I notice my furrowed brow as desire arises - the waste product of unguarded thoughts - and I smile. Sometimes I'm fortunate enough to be walking through a town passing people and that smile can be given to someone in passing. I believe the smile to be such a gift of wordless wonder like the ephemeral majesty of the snow capped mountain. If it was so, each smile I collected, would be saved in a wooden box carved and colourful, and a delight to be held. All I would need to do was carry it with me at all times and hand them to someone that needed it then. But hey, what's so delightful is this stream of commentary is nothing special. With metta
