These are all wonderful things, but they don't change the fiat currency systems, they don't stop wars, they won't fix economies, they won't change the course of evil powers on earth, and these teachings won't reach all of the masses of people because only a few will ever understand them, or care to understand them. At some point, wishful thinking meets reality. Europe has caused endless wars for 1000+ years, with a lot of churches+religion. Why do we wait for big wars to be nice to neighbors? 😂 why not remove all powers over men at all times and places so that we never have big wars? Because we are supposed to be nice until we have big wars? How does that make sense?
True buddhist vipassana is based on seeing arising and vanishing of the five aggregates .Whenever you get a signal through five sense organs you can see a light appears in the middle of the forehead and vanishishes instantly allowing the sense organ to grasp a new signal .Without seeing udayawaya you can not go further in vipassana meditation or preach about impermanence nature and suffering because you are not experiencing real impermanence and suffering .Kuddaka Ni patisambhida magga niddeso clearly says thus " seeing arising of the present signal is" udaya" ,seeing vanishing of the present dhamma is called" vaya " ability to see this natural phenomena is called " knowledge " .More than 200 satipattana suttras including Maha satipattana suttra lead us to see this true transient nature .Samudaya dhammanu passee va viharathi ,vaya dhammanu passee va viharathi is the pali sentence .you can find it at the end of every satipattana suttra .See our fb group "Vipassana " for more details Sadu !!!
Your comment unfortunately makes it seem like he's not teaching "true Buddhist..." he is, and you use it to promote your group..which is quite low vibration.
Ive thought a lot about the thing how if there is no self then what gets reborn question. ive heard ajahn brahm and you talk about it. would another way to say whats going on with that be that because of the delusion of a self, and attachment to a self is the reason why you get reborn at all? i feel like i bet both of you have already said this before but my attachment to a self caused me to forget.
The world today is not overall a loving and kind place and the unkindness is growing. Karma gets an extra layer to me. Because I have nothing to assert to others karma. Sometimes karma has reach its limits when the balance is lost. At least this is my experience this life. I know people who are kind and friendly, generous and certainly of good will. Guess what one bad after the other happens in their household. So good things happens to good people is a bit linear explanation in my experience. I hope you don't explain well they might be bad people in previous lives.
Wow thanks for giving your explanation of the Buddha's teachings...and contradicting the teachings...it's easy to think we know more than we do you are misunderstanding no-self.

there is not karma since there is no person to start with

I don't know about anyone else but he sounds nervous to me about problems of the 🌎. I know I am still surrounded by numb nutz. RG for BUMMA
It is his first talk. He said that.
