      I was actually just wondering if he was still alive, as he looks like he's nearing the end of his life in this video. I never listened to a teaching from him before, but now that I'm starting to listen to his series, I'm learning a lot. May he rest in peace 🙏

    Ever Notice that the concept of a heaven to go to is a reflection of the desire to have no suffering & the craving for the end of 'life is a state of constant flux' for things to stop changing so we dont have to experience the dukkha of the unknown, learning/adapting & losing something that accompany change?

    In most places a senior students with often low intelligence, will teach new students. This is a mistake because they don't teach or answer questions well. Often getting things quite wrong and inadverently putting people off or confusing them. In this instance Richard's high intelligence enabled him to teach well and he has the depth of understanding to answer people's questions.

    After watchng all lessons will i then understand buddas philosophy of life ? This covers everything?

      Hello @_notabot_. The Buddha taught the same ‘material’ (the Dhamma / Dharma) on many levels over his long ministry. This beginners series is pretty comprehensive; the only content missing from Richard Jone’s beginners lectures is the prehistory of Buddhism. One day I may add that content for the context - which is illuminating. For a ‘higher’ level of thre same teachings look at the A hiddhamma playlist on this channel or others such as Bhikkhu Bodhi. There you will find much more minute, granular detail of the psychological processes of the Dhamma. Please feel free to email with any questions or to request handouts.

    maybe I'm missing something obvious here but isn't nirvana conditioned also? just as everything is caused by prior events isn't achieving nirvanas condition that you make steps to achieve it, that your in a position to do so, and that you learned about it at all? or as I write this wonder if maybe achieving nirvana is conditioned but experiencing the state itself once achieved is non conditioned from that point on. but his example of paper more suggests to me its about how the state of object or thing got to place its in. any people have any insights?

    • @ryza1913

      minutes later his example to me says its about the state itself once experiencing it not how you get to that place

      Nibbana is the only phenomenal that's permanent because it's not created nor can it be destroyed by cause and effect

    • @minthura9053
      @minthura9053 Год назад

      NIbbanna means ceasing or blowing out. Since the cause ceases, the effect ceases. NIbanna is asankhara. The end of the flux of arising and passing away, the end of dukkha.

    • @minthura9053
      @minthura9053 Год назад +1

      @@nahanng7791 Nope, you can neither say nibanna is permanent nor impermanent beause its asankhara. There is no more arising and vanishing. The Buddha clearly said that sabbe dhamma anatta. All phenomenas (both sankhara :the mind and the body and asankhara: nibbanna) are devoid of the permanent unchanging atman nature. The mind and the body only exist in a flux of appearing and disappearing meanwhile the nibanna is the ceasing of that flux. That's it. There is no permanent atman nature in both sankhara and asankhara.

      @@Jan-Dehning there's something called etymology. Buddha might say xyz meaning for that word that doesn't change the original meaning from the original language which it came from. Origin .. get it?. I'm geographically located in a place on earth which people call India. So I'm pretty confident i know more than you in this matter.

      Nothing lasts for ever, according to the dhamma ‘everything is impermanent. This is one of the causes of suffering.
