It's definitely important to practice, but I wouldn't look down on your period of study either. It's good to be well-informed of how-to and understand conceptions that you can take-away into your daily life, ethics, and morals. You may be practicing without notice, you may have altered a part of your being from reading something that is mind-provoking, so what is your perception of practice? Mindful-meditation? or can it be mindful-reading, cooking, going to work? There is nothing wrong with the release of endorphins when you are in the presence of peace or happiness. To practice is to pay attention. The spiritual journey is also about self-acceptance where you currently are even if it's you freaking out in the anxiety of losing your job, being present doesn't mean that you have to be okay with everything that goes on in your life, be okay that you are currently freaking out and you will cool down faster. Some people don't even know where to start to be forgiving because it's difficult for them to forgive while living a hectic life of many obligations. Some people need to really take time to contemplate over the idea of humility and enlightenment just to realize they're lacking it because their ego was saying something like "I practice yoga often so I am on the higher level of my spiritual journey compared to the reader of yoga". etc.
Still remember when your youtube channel name was Kois Corner!Im now 19 and I feel like we have grown so much from back then,those recent years have been very enligthening and hope you will keep on being the emitter of such a good vibration for everyone around you:)
"We have to avoid cutting off our emotions. Instead, cut off the results of those emotions. Cut off the need of these emotions to lead to a specific point and place in time." Wow this is so true and beautifully put. It is really hard to practise this but the more I practise, the easier it gets! And it's truly the way to go man. Thank you Vishuddha! Stay safe and take care alright.
A couple years ago I focused on letting go of any attachments. Like my Loved ones, friends, items, memories, thoughts, emotions and even my own Life. At first it seemed like to me that I was not to care about them. But being more Present with them I realized i can still care about them without attaching myself to the outcomes. I can still have emotions for my Loved ones and items, and memories, but if I attachment myself to them then it will cause me pain and suffering In the end. I learned to be absolutely Present and purely accept any thought, emotion or outcome. And that alone will start your manifestion process in whatever you intent on. For me I was intent on attracting more Love in my life. I didn't know how to start getting results but I just kept a space in my Heart for any living thing. And a month later I was attracting more Loving in my Life than I had ever previously experienced before. Thank you Vishuddha Das💖 Have a wonderful day Everyone. Much Love🙏
@@taylorn4934 for me it was Knowing that I am whole and complete within myself. And once you have this Knowing then it makes it a lot easier to let go of the attachments. I realized that we are Born here with everything we need, everything we need to Grow, and Live is right here inside of you. We can learn to Love and grow but as soon as we attach our Egos to, it will only cause unnecessary pain and suffering. I learned in the book: The Power Of Now by Eckhart Tolle; that we have a Pain Body. This Pain body resides in our Egos body and is all the pain we've experienced in the past and haven't properly dealt with or let go of. This is why people get "triggered" something happens or is said that triggers the pain from their past. This Pain Body is an actual Living Energy and this is why people are cruel, so quick to hurt other, kill people, and even hurt themselves. Because they identify themselves with their Ego, therefore identifying with the Pain Body. When you identify with the pain inside, you'll Embody that pain and act upon, this creating more pain and suffering. The pain body feeds off of negative energies and wants to hurt others of yourself either physically or emotionally. You may have an experience where you act compulsively out of anger or hatred, and maybe regret it later. That is not you, and that is why you might see a dark side of a person who acts unrational. Nobody in their right mind wants to be in pain or suffering. The Ego and Pain Body is constantly looking to the Future for it's survival, and identifying with the past. But if we stop identifying with the Ego and start to Become Present to this moment, we align with our True Selves. You are not your thoughts or emotions. You ARE the Observer of these thoughts and emotions, once again, We are the Observer. Once we Know this, it opens a new state of Consciousness and you begin to create a gap between the Ego and the Awareness. When this happens you won't take any thoughts, or emotions seriously and you'll actually find alot of them are out of context to the Present Moment, or childish, or compulsive, or maybe not even your own. Thoughts and emotions float around through the human Consciousness and most of them aren't ours, most people suffer from Compulsive Thinking. But We are Awareness and our True State of Being is Presence. Everything is happening right Here, right Now. It really helps to be fully Present to this moment, which requires constant observation. And with this Knowing you fully surrender and accept what comes your way allowing yourself to Let Go. We are constantly changing each moment after the next, each breath, thought, action, and emotion. And if we allow ourselves to Let go and open ourselves and our Hearts to the next moment this allows constant growing without attachment to who we think we are. This is like being Reborn in Each and Every Moment after the next. We become profoundly Grateful, Innocent, Forgiving, Loving and Vulnerable.

The one thing that bothered me was the law of attraction/manifestation. It seems to completely draw from the ego and desire. We shouldn’t want or crave, we shouldn’t desire, we shouldn’t think ourselves too good for certain things, these all cause suffering. Why manifest or attract something like a new job or a million dollars when everything we need is within ourselves?
I’m grateful for this video! Would be awesome if you could do a video about how to journal, how much is enough and what exactly to write would he cool to get your perspective on it :)
The most powerful form of journaling in my experience is to write about your personal life experience, inner and outer. And how those 2 are related. So what are your feelings and thoughts and how are they creating your life? Because the outer reflects the inner. And how you were affected by the inner experiences of your parents (or caretakers) as a child.
I think that something else that many people need to avoid too is this feeling of superiority of thinking that because we are doing spiritual practice others that are not doing it cannot understand us because they are in a lower level of development. It is true that everyone path is different but every reincarnation is a new experience independently of the level that the soul is. How Matias Stefano said, we are here to get somewhere, there is not stairs to go up to, we are just here to experience different perspectives of the life that create for ourselves.
emotional detachment is something I often struggle with, combined with my mental illnesses, I tend to feel all or nothing and it's something that through spiritual practice and therapy I'm working towards making a lot more healthy
Yepp I made all those mistakes :D I hope someone who sees this can maybe prevent the mistake :) But even if we make a mistake we learn it our way. I am greatful for my mistakes
I first started following you in 2015, I've come and gone over the years but I always come back, so I've recently come to the conclusion that it's a sign to let go of my fears and allow myself to follow my spiritual path, something I've always felt called to but was never confident enough to actually embark on.
I'm extremely grateful for this channel. I really needed these words of wisdom, especially when you said that detachment isn't about not caring, but about feeling deeply and dealing with your emotions without letting them control you. Gratitude 🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely love your videos. I only recently started practicing spirituality after being raised in the LDS church (which I've since denounced) and am already seeing great improvement in my life. Thank you, Vishudda🙌🏼 Ram ram!
@@susie7707 Hare Krishna Hare Rama to all my fellow HUMANS🙏🙏🤗🤗 love all from Houston, USA Following Hinduism and its great Spirituality 😍😍 it's a gift to all humans so that we may he free from cycle of births and rebirths....and attain MOKSHA 🙏🙏NAMASTE
This video took a lot of pressure I had placed infront of my journey for myself, your knowledge truly erases the negative perception and beliefs formed around my life. I’ve been watching you since you began your first RUclips channel 💛 so greatful for your journey and your soul being present in the time of mine.
Spirituality is the only thing that gives me hope and motivation for life but some people say "spirituality" is evil. If I were to get rid of these beliefs and practices, I would be depressed and hopeless. Spirituality has helped me move forward in life in a postive way and provides self fullfillment for me and helped me do inner work.
Your third point: emotional detachment, was something I realized when I would try to express and embrace my feelings to a few other spiritual people and they kept telling me "Don't think like that, you gotta stop thinking like that, you gotta be positive. Words make your reality" This made me feel like I couldn't express my feelings at all and instead felt like they were telling me to suppress it and that didn't feel right because I didn't understand their mindset at the time. I wanted to embrace the feelings and these people meant well, but there was a disconnection in the dots. If anyone runs into a similar situation where someone you know is not using the words you're aware that are not "of higher frequency" or "positive", take a step down and help them as you would a teacher to a student, break it down and take it from their perspective, we've all been there. Help them understand, instead of just dismissing them with "Don't think like that" cause that's denying and invalidating their feelings. Help them embrace it so they can release it. :) Edit: Sometimes you can't change a person and it's not for you to change them. You may drive them away if you try to "fix them".
Thank you for this. I think I'm sometimes guilty of this when I hear my boyfriend, who is coping with a depression for the last few months, say "I'm lame, I can't do it. I will never make it. I'm so stupid, etc". I tell him he needs to change his words in order to change his perspective, that saying those harmful things about himself is not "good" because he would never ever say them to someone else. My intention at heart when I say those words is "Treat yourself with respect and love, be compassionate and don't drag yourself down because you are beautiful, just don't know it fully yet". But reading your comment, I do realize maybe it's invalidating his feelings or emotions. But let's say someone keeps referring to himself as "lame" or "bad" or "stupid" or "ridiculous", how can one help them to understand they're not ? I mean, I need to accept that in reality, I cannot really help, he needs to chose to love himself, I can only support him if he choses to do so. But I do wish I had more insight on how to actually awaken him and have him realize that keeping those thought patterns about himself is only going to make the feeling of sadness, unworthyness etc, worse. I'm really confused about what to do. But anyways, thanks for the message, it got me thinking !
@@LivingSimplyyAstrology Thank you for sharing your story! Yes, it can be frustrating. When I dipped back into depressed episode it made me realize that, at that moment, when you're in a depressed mindset, you're too emotionally and physically exhausted to do anything, let alone push yourself to think and pretend to be positive no matter how hard you try. As an analogy, you can't expect a person who's done a whole day of strenuous work to be able to run another mile or two. It's just too much on the body. From the moment you wake up to the moment you sleep it can feel the same, exhausted (this is just from my experience, the level of depression can vary). It's difficult to see someone you love struggle and be in pain, but that is something that they will learn to deal with at their own pace (sometimes professional help or an event is needed for that jump start). They will change when they are ready. One of the most beneficial experiences in one's journey is when you make the realization yourself over time, on your own divine timing and own pace. If im being honest, it sounds like he needs to speak about this to a psychologist, you should not be his therapist, you're his gf. You can only support him to an extent. In the mean time, what you can do for him is cut back on lecturing him and just send him loving energy and loving verbal words without the lecture. Tell him "I'm here for you.", "It's ok to feel this way and we're gonna get through it." Provide sympathy and empathy, imagine it from his perspective. Or simply distracting him with video games or a movie or something together is good. Some times you just don't want to think about anything and just want company. Video games has been a non-traditional form of meditation for me because it brings my mind to the present while distracting my focus. Sending love your way! ^u^
Dispassion is what you describe if I read that correctly. Dispassion stems from the ladder beginning in the practice: unrelentingly “mindful, ardent and alert”. This leads to awareness, joy, rapture...on up through DISPASSION. My point is that dispassion is higher on up the ladder, more refined and stronger than just feeling good or secure, fleeting happiness dependent upon conditions. I won’t go on. Hope this helps you and your friend as it has helped me. All the best in your practice
Could you elaborate more about letting go, many people are experiencing loses of love ones do to this pandemic, also many people are walking out of their relationships, lawyers are very busy.
Thank you for this video man! I really felt when you said to let go of what is no longer serving you in your path. I feel deeply that once I practice more than I learn, I will start to manifest an abundance of even more happiness in my life ✌️😃
Wow, I really appreciate the tip about making a list of notes from the Bagavad Gita. The teachings are vast, but this is such a great reminder to continue reading and living the scriptures. Thank you so much for your words.
Thank you,my biggest hurdle has been the letting go of attachment,at first you think,well I’m not supposed to care. I like the way you explained it.Currently practicing Hinduism. Another evolving understanding,what it means to practice. 🙏🏼📿
This video made me want to cry (of happiness of course). I just feel really grateful that you take the time to make RUclips videos for us all. Especially during a time like this. Thank you.
I watch and read all the time on a daily basis but I don’t know where to start I feel a little lost in the start of my journey. I want to practice but i don’t know where to start really. I don’t want to practice the wrong way either. You are a voice to be heard. Thank uou
This was really helpful, I feel like I'm such a noob at spirituality a lot of the time, but it's not as complex as it sounds, but this really helped🙏🏾. It would also be cool to do a video on what it ACTUALLY means to be spiritual and spiritually awoken🌟
Wow. Just ... wow. Yes! Thank you so much for putting this in my face ... I obviously needed it. Your first and third point are SO what I've been doing for years. I need to relearn how to allow myself to feel; I've been protecting myself for so long, this isn't going to be pretty.
I took the Triple Gem last year and officially became a Buddhist. I am devotee of Hsi Fang Temple, Fo Guang Shan Temple, here in San Diego. I had planned on taking the 5 precepts in April, but the virus took care of that. Just wanted you that I started this journey watching your videos. I appreciate you as a teacher and a human, thank you! Omituofo
There's a proverb I once heard, can't remember exactly, that goes "The sharpest mind will never be as timeless as the weakest ink". Something along those lines. Your first point about practise over knowledge made me think of this proverb in a new light. From my experience, I always loved spirituality and read A LOT about it growing up. I thought, at that time, I was woke. Then, few years ago, I started meditation and "practising my craft". In just 1 month, I had learned a LOT more than I have learned in the past 5 years or so of reading. In the past few months, I haven't put enough "work" in my spirituality because I have been caught up in "daily life" and I am starting to feel like that's hindering my progress. This is a great reminder for me to keep the work, to walk the road and never stop putting in the efforts. Anyways, thank you so much Koi for this beautiful video, as always.
Wow.....I needed to hear this especially about the reading. I found your channel while searching for info on chakra balancing and love your material. This was a great video and I thank you
I sensed you were even more spontaneous in this video! Like, I felt a lot of honesty, a good vibe. Of course, you're always like that in your videos :)
Jai Maa Kali 🙏 you always make solid videos, but this one was excellent. I'm still guilty of a few of these, but I never really thought of it, not really recognizing it
Thank you thank you thank you for #2. That is why I feel people are getting sick of hearing the phrase "thoughts and prayers" (no matter how well-intentioned) that is not followed by ACTION.
I definitely struggle with the first one, especially if you include watching videos/listening to seminars. I'll just listen to video playlists all day, while not actively practicing...just nodding along with what they're saying XD Really great food for thought for what I need to work on. I always appreciate your insight.
I used to watch your channel when I was 16 (22 now), it’s really cool to see you talk about important topics such over consumption of spiritual material, law of attraction misconceptions, and psychedelic vs natural enlightenment. Sometimes I really struggle connecting with the things I see in the spiritual community, I feel as though things are over complicated. I have found myself straying away from new age and towards traditional eastern philosophies, as they seem to better capture the essence of what spirituality is. Anyways your channel is great, glad I found it again :)
This vid was definitely helpful and came at the right time! I will admit that I am guilty of doing all of these things, but I'm glad you shed light on them in a loving way AND gave a good solution for them. Thank you 😊
Just picked up on your stuff :) defo over read.. been thinking lately exactly that I am not putting into practice what I am learning :) totally get it and have been more mindful about implementing.
You seem to always release videos at the right time! And for that, I’m eternally grateful for your wisdom, thank you, sincerely me and everyone else that thinks the same 🙏🏾⭐️🥳
I'd love to see a video on the similarities between Krishna and Christ and how their are many different avatars of this loving passion of god throughout time in all different religions there all the same person is what I believe
That's EXACTLY what I needed at this very moment. Thank you 🙏 On an other topic, we hear alot of things about the 5G right now, I would be curious to know your point of view on this! Namaste
I just wanna reflect back to when I saw you getting so much hate for the way you present your videos. I saw a lot of people saying you presented them as “advertising” or “fake”. I literally see no problem with the way you choose to express your knowledge. I think we forget that we have these creative aspects of ourselves that should be expressed and these videos are just a expression of that creativity! I feel as though people should focus on the bigger picture of your messages and not the things that seriously don’t matter! I just wanna say I admire your videos and your motive to help people in generally it’s super inspiring and I’ve already learned a ton from you, much love and light! ❤️🦋
I also remember your Koi's corner days. I see how much you've grown and blossomed over the years on your various social channels. I love the content you share. Keep being radiantly you!
Idk why but when you started talking about the first point it made me think of star wars, in the scene where the jedi texts were "destroyed" in a fire. I have to say, I just saw a couple of your videos and your energy seems a lot better than it was in the past. I'm hoping that it's true, that you're in a better place ❤
The universe will meet you halfway. What we perceive as halfway might be more or less of the actual half way, Stay focused and have grace and all things are possible.
If you don't address your emotions and you stuff them and ignore them and pretend they're not there your emotions will manifest in very destructive behaviors. Don't hold on to it but experience it and let it go
I half agree with the manifestation statement. I’ve found with some things, usually small though, I literally think I want something, without attachment, then it will manifest within a few hours, days or week or so. However, I have gone through a huge transformation of frequency that took years of work and letting go of toxic things that lowered my frequency. So your right there, but you can manifest things quickly through non attached thought, when your frequency is high. It’s quite fun and exciting when it happens ☺️ Lots of love 🙏💖🌸
I just want to say thank you for your videos and knowledge on spirituality. It has definitely helped me on my own spiritual path and desire to continue to grow until I reach enlightenment in my life. God bless your journey and keep sharing your amazing and beautiful knowledge Vishuddha!
These things are so hard to do with adhd, depression and anxiety. Not gonna give up but sense I got my diagnosis I can now find a way to make things work, will be very but maybe I can finally make progress.
The first point you made about reading too much and not putting it to practice, reminded me of the alchemist... the part when Santiago (protagonist) meets the professor? who is trying to study alchemy to master it. It is with this professor Santiago learns the lesson that studying only takes you so far, action is the only way to move forward and grow
It's kind of crazy dude. I started watching your videos when your channel was named Kois corner. Your videos helped me so much when I felt lost because I was separated from the church. You literally showed me a whole new world. About 2 years after finding your channel I started working and met some really cool people who reminded me of you. Turns out they knew you from florida! One of the guys that was a big influence and help to me was named Dakota Gibbs. Not sure if you remember him but it's just so crazy how at the time everything was in sync.
I’m definitely guilty of reading too much and not applying the principles from the book
Commotion to Consciousness information without implementation is entertainment
Facts same
me too!
It's definitely important to practice, but I wouldn't look down on your period of study either. It's good to be well-informed of how-to and understand conceptions that you can take-away into your daily life, ethics, and morals. You may be practicing without notice, you may have altered a part of your being from reading something that is mind-provoking, so what is your perception of practice? Mindful-meditation? or can it be mindful-reading, cooking, going to work? There is nothing wrong with the release of endorphins when you are in the presence of peace or happiness. To practice is to pay attention. The spiritual journey is also about self-acceptance where you currently are even if it's you freaking out in the anxiety of losing your job, being present doesn't mean that you have to be okay with everything that goes on in your life, be okay that you are currently freaking out and you will cool down faster.
Some people don't even know where to start to be forgiving because it's difficult for them to forgive while living a hectic life of many obligations. Some people need to really take time to contemplate over the idea of humility and enlightenment just to realize they're lacking it because their ego was saying something like "I practice yoga often so I am on the higher level of my spiritual journey compared to the reader of yoga". etc.
Same here. I feel joy of knowing where the mistakes were during my studies and so delighted about the knowledge that Vishuddha shared with me.

So what are your feelings and thoughts and how are they creating your life? Because the outer reflects the inner. And how you were affected by the inner experiences of your parents (or caretakers) as a child.
______I Love you thank you so much for response it really helps !!
I always feel happy when I get your notification
I am always happy when I see you guys enjoying the videos! ☀️
I love how you immediately start, and the way you explain, very understanding, i learn so much thank you
As a man losing his hair, I am positively jealous of your locks.

They are beautiful! But so is baldness :)
@Dirty Doski Same I am just 17 years old and its a real pain in the ass but you definitly feel better once you shave it off.
Eye opener, the time is now we rejoice together love and peace to all namaste. 🙏💯
I honestly have the highest respect for you.
I think that something else that many people need to avoid too is this feeling of superiority of thinking that because we are doing spiritual practice others that are not doing it cannot understand us because they are in a lower level of development. It is true that everyone path is different but every reincarnation is a new experience independently of the level that the soul is. How Matias Stefano said, we are here to get somewhere, there is not stairs to go up to, we are just here to experience different perspectives of the life that create for ourselves.
This man is living his life the best way, look at the location he's living
emotional detachment is something I often struggle with, combined with my mental illnesses, I tend to feel all or nothing and it's something that through spiritual practice and therapy I'm working towards making a lot more healthy
I loved this video, but I honestly can’t get over the view out of your window. It’s so calming.
Yepp I made all those mistakes :D I hope someone who sees this can maybe prevent the mistake :) But even if we make a mistake we learn it our way. I am greatful for my mistakes
So very well said. I needed to hear this on this Monday morning. New week, new perspective. Thank you.
I first started following you in 2015, I've come and gone over the years but I always come back, so I've recently come to the conclusion that it's a sign to let go of my fears and allow myself to follow my spiritual path, something I've always felt called to but was never confident enough to actually embark on.
I'm extremely grateful for this channel. I really needed these words of wisdom, especially when you said that detachment isn't about not caring, but about feeling deeply and dealing with your emotions without letting them control you. Gratitude 🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely love your videos. I only recently started practicing spirituality after being raised in the LDS church (which I've since denounced) and am already seeing great improvement in my life. Thank you, Vishudda🙌🏼 Ram ram!
Rylan Carter same here! wishing you the best

That practice the practice to practice the practice line is excellent.
This video took a lot of pressure I had placed infront of my journey for myself, your knowledge truly erases the negative perception and beliefs formed around my life. I’ve been watching you since you began your first RUclips channel 💛 so greatful for your journey and your soul being present in the time of mine.
Spirituality is the only thing that gives me hope and motivation for life but some people say "spirituality" is evil. If I were to get rid of these beliefs and practices, I would be depressed and hopeless. Spirituality has helped me move forward in life in a postive way and provides self fullfillment for me and helped me do inner work.
Your third point: emotional detachment, was something I realized when I would try to express and embrace my feelings to a few other spiritual people and they kept telling me "Don't think like that, you gotta stop thinking like that, you gotta be positive. Words make your reality" This made me feel like I couldn't express my feelings at all and instead felt like they were telling me to suppress it and that didn't feel right because I didn't understand their mindset at the time. I wanted to embrace the feelings and these people meant well, but there was a disconnection in the dots.
If anyone runs into a similar situation where someone you know is not using the words you're aware that are not "of higher frequency" or "positive", take a step down and help them as you would a teacher to a student, break it down and take it from their perspective, we've all been there. Help them understand, instead of just dismissing them with "Don't think like that" cause that's denying and invalidating their feelings. Help them embrace it so they can release it. :)
Edit: Sometimes you can't change a person and it's not for you to change them. You may drive them away if you try to "fix them".
Forest T i completely agree!!!
Thank you for this. I think I'm sometimes guilty of this when I hear my boyfriend, who is coping with a depression for the last few months, say "I'm lame, I can't do it. I will never make it. I'm so stupid, etc". I tell him he needs to change his words in order to change his perspective, that saying those harmful things about himself is not "good" because he would never ever say them to someone else. My intention at heart when I say those words is "Treat yourself with respect and love, be compassionate and don't drag yourself down because you are beautiful, just don't know it fully yet". But reading your comment, I do realize maybe it's invalidating his feelings or emotions. But let's say someone keeps referring to himself as "lame" or "bad" or "stupid" or "ridiculous", how can one help them to understand they're not ? I mean, I need to accept that in reality, I cannot really help, he needs to chose to love himself, I can only support him if he choses to do so. But I do wish I had more insight on how to actually awaken him and have him realize that keeping those thought patterns about himself is only going to make the feeling of sadness, unworthyness etc, worse. I'm really confused about what to do. But anyways, thanks for the message, it got me thinking !
@@LivingSimplyyAstrology Thank you for sharing your story! Yes, it can be frustrating. When I dipped back into depressed episode it made me realize that, at that moment, when you're in a depressed mindset, you're too emotionally and physically exhausted to do anything, let alone push yourself to think and pretend to be positive no matter how hard you try. As an analogy, you can't expect a person who's done a whole day of strenuous work to be able to run another mile or two. It's just too much on the body. From the moment you wake up to the moment you sleep it can feel the same, exhausted (this is just from my experience, the level of depression can vary). It's difficult to see someone you love struggle and be in pain, but that is something that they will learn to deal with at their own pace (sometimes professional help or an event is needed for that jump start). They will change when they are ready. One of the most beneficial experiences in one's journey is when you make the realization yourself over time, on your own divine timing and own pace.
If im being honest, it sounds like he needs to speak about this to a psychologist, you should not be his therapist, you're his gf. You can only support him to an extent.
In the mean time, what you can do for him is cut back on lecturing him and just send him loving energy and loving verbal words without the lecture. Tell him "I'm here for you.", "It's ok to feel this way and we're gonna get through it." Provide sympathy and empathy, imagine it from his perspective. Or simply distracting him with video games or a movie or something together is good. Some times you just don't want to think about anything and just want company. Video games has been a non-traditional form of meditation for me because it brings my mind to the present while distracting my focus.
Sending love your way! ^u^
Dispassion is what you describe if I read that correctly. Dispassion stems from the ladder beginning in the practice: unrelentingly “mindful, ardent and alert”. This leads to awareness, joy, rapture...on up through DISPASSION. My point is that dispassion is higher on up the ladder, more refined and stronger than just feeling good or secure, fleeting happiness dependent upon conditions. I won’t go on. Hope this helps you and your friend as it has helped me. All the best in your practice
Could you elaborate more about letting go, many people are experiencing loses of love ones do to this pandemic, also many people are walking out of their relationships, lawyers are very busy.
Thank you for this video man! I really felt when you said to let go of what is no longer serving you in your path. I feel deeply that once I practice more than I learn, I will start to manifest an abundance of even more happiness in my life ✌️😃
Wow, I really appreciate the tip about making a list of notes from the Bagavad Gita. The teachings are vast, but this is such a great reminder to continue reading and living the scriptures. Thank you so much for your words.
Thank you,my biggest hurdle has been the letting go of attachment,at first you think,well I’m not supposed to care. I like the way you explained it.Currently practicing Hinduism. Another evolving understanding,what it means to practice.
🙏🏼📿
This video made me want to cry (of happiness of course). I just feel really grateful that you take the time to make RUclips videos for us all. Especially during a time like this. Thank you.
Wonderful video. Watching it 2 years after you’ve posted it and it’s as relevant as ever. Thank you for what you share 🙏🏼❤️
It’s been 4 years since I’ve visited your channel, you have not let me down. Great stuff you’re teaching here bro, I love it. Peace and love Koi
Thank you!!! You are the one that gave me the most clarity in what I was looking for.
Very clear, concise and paractical informatiion. Blessings!
Spiritual practice rocks!
amen 🏜️
@@VishuddhaDas I am taking the Steps to Knowledge course and it's epic! It's free online, just google it.
I just found your channel and came across this video and I’m not sure why but I’m crying…
What a beautiful message, the universe definitely works in mysterious ways. ✨
I'm so happy he's posting more often 😁
Yeah fully embracing your emotions is the real detachment.
I am beyond grateful that I found this RUclips channel
I watch and read all the time on a daily basis but I don’t know where to start I feel a little lost in the start of my journey. I want to practice but i don’t know where to start really. I don’t want to practice the wrong way either. You are a voice to be heard. Thank uou
This was really helpful, I feel like I'm such a noob at spirituality a lot of the time, but it's not as complex as it sounds, but this really helped🙏🏾. It would also be cool to do a video on what it ACTUALLY means to be spiritual and spiritually awoken🌟
i definitely needed this!! thank you 🙏🏻 hope you’re staying safe and healthy
Wow. Just ... wow. Yes!
Thank you so much for putting this in my face ... I obviously needed it. Your first and third point are SO what I've been doing for years. I need to relearn how to allow myself to feel; I've been protecting myself for so long, this isn't going to be pretty.
I took the Triple Gem last year and officially became a Buddhist. I am devotee of Hsi Fang Temple, Fo Guang Shan Temple, here in San Diego. I had planned on taking the 5 precepts in April, but the virus took care of that. Just wanted you that I started this journey watching your videos. I appreciate you as a teacher and a human, thank you! Omituofo
There's a proverb I once heard, can't remember exactly, that goes "The sharpest mind will never be as timeless as the weakest ink". Something along those lines. Your first point about practise over knowledge made me think of this proverb in a new light. From my experience, I always loved spirituality and read A LOT about it growing up. I thought, at that time, I was woke. Then, few years ago, I started meditation and "practising my craft". In just 1 month, I had learned a LOT more than I have learned in the past 5 years or so of reading. In the past few months, I haven't put enough "work" in my spirituality because I have been caught up in "daily life" and I am starting to feel like that's hindering my progress. This is a great reminder for me to keep the work, to walk the road and never stop putting in the efforts. Anyways, thank you so much Koi for this beautiful video, as always.
Wow.....I needed to hear this especially about the reading. I found your channel while searching for info on chakra balancing and love your material. This was a great video and I thank you
That last one really is helping me out rn
His intro is so cool!🤍
ive been asking the universe for guidance and then your video appeared thank you 😊
I sensed you were even more spontaneous in this video! Like, I felt a lot of honesty, a good vibe. Of course, you're always like that in your videos :)
Jai Maa Kali 🙏 you always make solid videos, but this one was excellent. I'm still guilty of a few of these, but I never really thought of it, not really recognizing it
Thank you thank you thank you for #2. That is why I feel people are getting sick of hearing the phrase "thoughts and prayers" (no matter how well-intentioned) that is not followed by ACTION.
I definitely struggle with the first one, especially if you include watching videos/listening to seminars. I'll just listen to video playlists all day, while not actively practicing...just nodding along with what they're saying XD Really great food for thought for what I need to work on. I always appreciate your insight.
Great video Koi!
I used to watch your channel when I was 16 (22 now), it’s really cool to see you talk about important topics such over consumption of spiritual material, law of attraction misconceptions, and psychedelic vs natural enlightenment. Sometimes I really struggle connecting with the things I see in the spiritual community, I feel as though things are over complicated. I have found myself straying away from new age and towards traditional eastern philosophies, as they seem to better capture the essence of what spirituality is. Anyways your channel is great, glad I found it again :)
Literally same
This vid was definitely helpful and came at the right time! I will admit that I am guilty of doing all of these things, but I'm glad you shed light on them in a loving way AND gave a good solution for them. Thank you 😊
Rayanna Toney I’m guilty to🤭
Rayanna Toney I love your comment 😁🙏🏻
Oh, thanks 😊
Really cool video man. Probably "practicing more and reading less" is the most powerful.
Gratitude For this video. I’m at guilty of all of these. I’m grateful for this awareness😁.
I really enjoy your sense of urgency. Namaste!
It’s crazy to me how much the thinking of #2 and #3 have been normalized in American life. Especially being a teenager.
Great video! I wish more spiritually inclined channels mentioned this. When I was younger I definitely was bypassing and reading too much
Just picked up on your stuff :) defo over read.. been thinking lately exactly that I am not putting into practice what I am learning :) totally get it and have been more mindful about implementing.
I needed to hear this. Thank you.
i do these from time to time. thanks for the reminder to continue to make the actions toward my manifestations. ❤✨
I haven’t watched u in a while and I should say that I miss u so much
Such a wonderful place next to the water ❤
You seem to always release videos at the right time! And for that, I’m eternally grateful for your wisdom, thank you, sincerely me and everyone else that thinks the same 🙏🏾⭐️🥳
I'd love to see a video on the similarities between Krishna and Christ and how their are many different avatars of this loving passion of god throughout time in all different religions there all the same person is what I believe
That's EXACTLY what I needed at this very moment. Thank you 🙏 On an other topic, we hear alot of things about the 5G right now, I would be curious to know your point of view on this! Namaste
The last point on emotional detachment was exceptionally eye opening to me. Thank you for this perspective ❤️
I just wanna reflect back to when I saw you getting so much hate for the way you present your videos. I saw a lot of people saying you presented them as “advertising” or “fake”. I literally see no problem with the way you choose to express your knowledge. I think we forget that we have these creative aspects of ourselves that should be expressed and these videos are just a expression of that creativity! I feel as though people should focus on the bigger picture of your messages and not the things that seriously don’t matter! I just wanna say I admire your videos and your motive to help people in generally it’s super inspiring and I’ve already learned a ton from you, much love and light! ❤️🦋
I also remember your Koi's corner days. I see how much you've grown and blossomed over the years on your various social channels. I love the content you share. Keep being radiantly you!
Idk why but when you started talking about the first point it made me think of star wars, in the scene where the jedi texts were "destroyed" in a fire.
I have to say, I just saw a couple of your videos and your energy seems a lot better than it was in the past. I'm hoping that it's true, that you're in a better place ❤
The universe will meet you halfway. What we perceive as halfway might be more or less of the actual half way, Stay focused and have grace and all things are possible.
one of most useful useful videos bcos ..we needed this reminder....
Love the picture of Kali in the background!
It's GODESS kali brother 🤗🤗🤗🙏🙏🙏 Hare Krishna
The intro is so clean
This was great:) thank you again Vishuddha ❤ Ram Ram 🙏
This was really helpful, thank you.
what a good way to get this info out there love!
Thanks so much. This video was very insightful. What I really got from this video is there's always more to learn and it's good to remain open.
Momentum is God.
Stagnation is turning away from God
🙏
If you don't address your emotions and you stuff them and ignore them and pretend they're not there your emotions will manifest in very destructive behaviors. Don't hold on to it but experience it and let it go
I love seeing your transformation. This video, as usual, was a big help. Thank you for what you do!
I am a big head tripper. So reading and thinking I do a tremendous amount of. So the first one is important to me.
I half agree with the manifestation statement. I’ve found with some things, usually small though, I literally think I want something, without attachment, then it will manifest within a few hours, days or week or so. However, I have gone through a huge transformation of frequency that took years of work and letting go of toxic things that lowered my frequency. So your right there, but you can manifest things quickly through non attached thought, when your frequency is high. It’s quite fun and exciting when it happens ☺️ Lots of love 🙏💖🌸
This has come to me in perfect timing because I was just about research spiritual doe's and dont's, much love!
Vishudda brings me so much wisdom
I just want to say thank you for your videos and knowledge on spirituality. It has definitely helped me on my own spiritual path and desire to continue to grow until I reach enlightenment in my life. God bless your journey and keep sharing your amazing and beautiful knowledge Vishuddha!
Always improving!!! Big love from another youtuber🔥❤🔥
These things are so hard to do with adhd, depression and anxiety. Not gonna give up but sense I got my diagnosis I can now find a way to make things work, will be very but maybe I can finally make progress.
mmm yes thank you for this, so true that we must honor all our feelings but not be controlled by them
The first point you made about reading too much and not putting it to practice, reminded me of the alchemist... the part when Santiago (protagonist) meets the professor? who is trying to study alchemy to master it. It is with this professor Santiago learns the lesson that studying only takes you so far, action is the only way to move forward and grow
Thanks for your time brother keep it up !! Peace and Love
It's kind of crazy dude. I started watching your videos when your channel was named Kois corner. Your videos helped me so much when I felt lost because I was separated from the church. You literally showed me a whole new world. About 2 years after finding your channel I started working and met some really cool people who reminded me of you. Turns out they knew you from florida! One of the guys that was a big influence and help to me was named Dakota Gibbs. Not sure if you remember him but it's just so crazy how at the time everything was in sync.
I'm just beginning my spiritual journey
Appreciate you man 💜 I've been learning a ton with your videos and I couldn't be more grateful 🙏🏻
