When he says "get lost" I know exactly what he means. It's those thoughts that come randomly and when I become aware, I can't seem to recall the thoughts of just moments ago. When he says being "aware but not meditation", I know it's being aware of those thoughts, even the random ones, and being able to trace them all the way back to where they started. Since I've started meditating, I've been more and more aware of my thoughts and the difference between the two. It's been a very interesting journey so far. Now, when I'm aware of thoughts, i seem to be able to examine the content of those thoughts more deeply. It leads to some entertaining ideas and insightful self-reflection. Unlike the superficial random thoughts of the "monkey mind."
Wow.. That great .. I love to trace all the things, but it takes times, after that how to analyse those thoughts! Can you explain that? It will be helpful for a novice like me !
@@YaksenPushMongo I have a question, so when you “recognize your awareness” do you then become mindful and present? For Example if I am meditating and I get lost in thoughts but I realize that I am do i then shift my attention to the present and focus on that?
I wonder at which point people stop viewing lack of grooming as something positive instead of negative. "Oh he's not grooming himself out of laziness, it's out of enlightenment."
@@欺软怕硬 It isn't out of laziness. Nice try. Try to rid yourself of anger and jealousy. You will feel much better. When you attack others only you are attacking yourself.
@@欺软怕硬 I can understand that. Grooming has long been an important part of many religions, and most especially Buddhism. From what I can gather, Rinpoche was taking part in an intensive retreat. Maybe grooming was kept to the sidelines here? He looks clean, with or without the hair. I believe that as long as we are clean, that is more important than shaving.
One thing I learn from the habit of meditation that it also bring much more other good habits(exercise,healthy food, healthy reading, want to do things,etc).
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and knowledge with us. I believe you're the first person I came across with here in WWW that makes meditation simple and easy. That's how it should be. :)
Mingyur Yongey Rinpoche!!!!!!! You are a wonderfull teacher . Namaste. And you look SO cute with your hair on :D sun is shining... the weather is sweet.. :D Thank you for this treasure teaching. You have a beautiful way of expressing and explaining the mind. Thank you so much for teaching. Namaste, God bless you
Thank you so much! Every time i listen to your teachings i learn so much. I'm very glad that my generation is able to use all this technology in a good way sometimes. We may get distracted also but it's up to us to make good use of it
I remeber when I had the 1st experience like this. I was like... "whoa what? Feels exactly like waking up... but waaait where the hell was I for the last 40 years???" - It really was eye opening, realizing I actually was around - summing up the moments altogether - 24 hours aware in my whole life so far... wow.
Merci infiniment 🌺 d'avoir sous-titre la vidéo en français 🙏💗🌈😃 , j'aime énormément cet être , j'ai lu son livre cette hiver 😇 , et je suis très heureuse de le voir et de le comprendre dans ma langue maternelle ! Bravo Rinpoché pour votre expérience , votre retraite.... J'ai adoré vous lire 🙏🌈🕊️✨💐
Occasional thoughts about the past or future are fine; mindfulness (as I understand it) helps those who think constantly over the mistakes of the past, or worry constantly over what's coming in the future, and are therefore failing to live a meaningful and satisfying life in the here and now.
What a great teaching. The jewel 💎 here is even when we are unconscious we are aware. So then the question is are we present or lost in our awareness at any given moment?
Helo Rinpoche Ive noticed that I feel angry deprresed scared and I have an dark negative state of mind what is the solution?how can I be balanced calm relaxed?
Yeah, it would help I suppose. But the best and simplest thing to do is to have satisfying sex on a regular basis. No one that has that ever feels like depressed angry scared for no reason. I wish u all the best, Vasile
I learned about Rinpoche and even read his book , but all this time I knew him with his shaved head. I also have watched tons of videos with him and everywhere he was like that. And when the thumbnail of this video came out on RUclips I saw a swarthy guy with long hairs and mustache and thought " What this Indian guy is doing on Rinpoche's videos?" and went on scrolling down. Only today, when this video appeared again in recommendations, I just looked at the picture more attentively and some lightning stroke in my head like "Wait a minute, is that Rinpoche himself??" And this is actually the question I'd like to ask (him or anyone who is in deep knowledge of meditation): does the hair on the head influence the meditation process anyhow? I mean, most of the monks we see, they're shaved bald but does that really matter?
Just my opinion, but when he says "get lost", or "mindless" to the lay person that actually means "day dreaming." In other words, you're not aware, instead you're day dreaming about something, which is the opposite of Mediation.
I understand awareness is always with us, but how do you recognize it? How can you recognize something that is not in experience. A camera can’t take a picture of itself. So how can we recognize what we already are???
This dude is awesome. He is fat, he is thin, he has a jungle on his head, his head as is smooth as an egg, he wears glasses, he doesn't wear glasses.
Hahahaha
My god.... hahahah
Being at oneness makes you eternally cool no matter how you look what you wear or age
hahaha :) Yeah, he looks so different than usual. I like him very much ! He`s so gentle and clear !
He is also in focus, and also out of focus.
When he fist said 'awareness' I was like aha, its him.
😂😂😂
haha me too
jajajaja
Lol
@@Sawaan44w hi
He looks so cool with hair and beard !!!
He is a doppelganger of dhanush
yesss...nice.... I get loss.... my concentration..
40 years old with no greys. Meditation has it's benefits.
HE IS ASIAN.
I just became really aware of his hair. You are beautiful with or without that amazing hair and beard.
Hair awareness.
Hairwareness
Hawareness
He just completed a long retreat whereby he does not shave and cut any body hair. The retreat usually last 1-3 years or longer.

pretty accurate description of what happens to me when I do some basic meditation regularly. it is really neat.
@@Light_Yagamiii theres no need to trace every thought.. let go and just watch

His way of explaining really fits our Western mind and culture. A great teacher.
For 30s I thought it"s so amazing that this person speaks just like Mingyur Rinpoche, he even makes the same grammar mistakes with English : D
Tan Tanner NLP can explain that behavior.
talking about meditation,not to judge about
good or poor English.
hahaha yes. Mingyur's way of speaking is very unique indeed.
He is great.
So, you speak the Queen's English?
Rinpoche looks like a Shiva priest. It is a nice look for him. Good health always and long life for Mingyur Rinpoche. 🙏🕉💞📿

You look so different I had to hear your voice to be sure it was you. Great wisdom as always. Please post more often!
It is so nice that you explain easily. Cause I'm dumb, I needed someone who could explain easily.

I was drawn to Rinpoche at first video. Been listening to him in RUclips and Spotify.
Thank you so much Rinpoche for theses sharing always compassionate!

This deserves 4.3 million likes

The hair is bad ass
Wait till you see his tattoo! ;D
Word!
Thank You Rinpoche
Just came out of cave to give us life lessons best gift for living happily
Why is it so important to live in the present? I sometimes enjoy thinking about the past or future.
Occasional thoughts about the past or future are fine; mindfulness (as I understand it) helps those who think constantly over the mistakes of the past, or worry constantly over what's coming in the future, and are therefore failing to live a meaningful and satisfying life in the here and now.
Thanks for all the help Rinpoche, tashi delek 🙏🏻
What a great teaching. The jewel 💎 here is even when we are unconscious we are aware. So then the question is are we present or lost in our awareness at any given moment?
Thank you Mingyur 💖💖💖
Human Design helps you remember who you are. You were born perfectly and nothing has changed.
thank you Rinpoche...I once want to meet you if I am lucky...
So helpful. So simple and doable how he explains awareness.
Obrigada Mestre!
Has Mingyur Rinpoche ever been to Britain, or more importantly, are there any plans for him to do so?
Thank You!
as long as there is chi/praana/life-energy in body, can become self-aware, true Bhante, thanks for the video!
You can't fight the feeling but you can extinguish the thought. Thus the feeling is fleeting. Watch it fly past.
This is a great explanation of the state of awareness 🙏🏼
♥Awareness awareness awareness !!! Thank u rinpochela for aware me from awareness big big thank!
Thanks for your explanation...🙏🙏🙏
Meditation is awareness. 👍🏼😀
And awareness is meditation one in the no matter how you view it which I love
He looks handsome in this look
Thank u so much Rinpochen
long hair and the beard makes Rimpoche look very smart...kyapsuche
Rinpoche, Thank you for your brief explanation..now I know how to meditate..🙏😊
Simple and very powerful idea.
Helo Rinpoche Ive noticed that I feel angry deprresed scared and I have an dark negative state of mind what is the solution?how can I be balanced calm relaxed?
very kind - thank you!
that which passes passes like clouds
Yeah, it would help I suppose. But the best and simplest thing to do is to have satisfying sex on a regular basis. No one that has that ever feels like depressed angry scared for no reason. I wish u all the best, Vasile
That is entirely your opinion and a flimsy one, at that.
I would try to do more to serve others. Think about ways to serve those around you.
this guy is simply Great.... he makes things easy .... Allah bless him more... Amen
Thank you Master
Love you so much Rimpochi .
Thank you Master🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for posting this video.
I though he was a different monk! Jajajajaja I didn't recognise him!!!
Master thank you love u Namaste

He does look so different!
Ultimately what matters is our own willingness to gently practice, far above all else.
He has perfect body language.
It just shows how much he is one with himself.
Thankyou so much 🙏
he looks younger like this. he should keep his hair and just style the beard. he is awesome person
dont cling to looks or hair :p
Wow he looks so young!
Happiness is only grasped in the Here and Now
Peace is the foundation. The base.
Peace is only in the Here and Now.
The Tao go strong bro.
Very good Explanation..
Infinite Love ❤
you look so different with hair! great video as always
