The Tibetan monk in this video is actually a very accomplished teacher in the Buddhist tradition and his name is Mingyur Rinpoche and everyone who wants to know more about him and his teachings can find a lot about that on RUclips if you just search on his name there. Good luck!
Thank you so much. 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻
"My panic was one of my best friend and best teacher" - to accept and learn from negative events in life is one of the most important skill.
30:39 This scene reminds me of the quote by Nikola Tesla that says, “The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”
Exactly there is so much more to consciousness than just the basics so much is happening that is not visible to the eyes
This is very exciting, but I wonder how much we can truly study consciousness scientifically. Instruments can only measure so much.
@@alimbo9436 how do you know?
Based on your own science?
@@JohnSmith-nz2yq what do you mean, we as humans see and know very little of how the universe works
It made me so happy, to see those kids meditating.
may youtube and this toxic internet be filled with more hour long specials about such awesome stuff!
Oh men. Headspace changed my life completely, meditation changes everything, EVERYTHING
You sure. I have been suffering anxiety and depression on an off for 15 years. Tried meditation but never been consistent
@@harshsaini2494 the problem that u should understand why do u even meditate ( i mean understanding of conceptions, its probably even more important than meditation itself) and meditate every day (in my first 6 months i meditate everyday atleast 1-2 hours). headspace app really helps me with that. u get some tips from app, some videos from it + meditation and its change ur perspective completely. i was always very melancholic person, after a year of meditation my emotional mood was very stable and positive one
i suffer from anxiety and irritate bowel syndrome (men ibs is a pure hell) and meditation helps me with that A fucking L O T.
but i should say i recommend meditation in the past to some of my friends (like 2-3 people) who struggle with depression and some things and i explain to them everything i know about ego, how it controls em and how and why exactly meditation works etc etc. but they still dont get it right and ofcourse meditation doesnt help em. plus they thought that meditation is like A MAGIC PILL and if they do it for a month then depression should gtfo from their life, but it doesnt work like that
without understanding meditation works like on 30%, with understanding it goes up to 100% and changes everything. i know it can sound like an abstract shit, but i cant explain u in two words why it changes everything
@@harshsaini2494 consistency is key, it has to become a habit
"Panic was my friend and teacher." I love that.
Beautiful ❤️ coment
Yes. Watch my videos ❤️
Mine too
"There is a maxim that Navy SEALs pass from officer to officer, person to person. In the midst of chaos, even in the fog of war, their battle-tested advice is this: “Calm is contagious.”
Especially when that calm is coming from the man or woman in charge. If the men begin to lose their wits, if the group is unsure of what to do next, it’s the leader’s job to do one thing: instill calm- not by force but by example.” ~ Ryan Holiday, The Daily Stoic
Rinpoche's book "Joyful Wisdom" is amazing, especially the audiobook, the way he describes awareness and brings you where you need to go in your mind to get the view just.. clicks.. and suddenly you're meditating in a totally new and profound way.
I am halfway through reading the Joy of Living by Mingyur Rinpoche and I wholeheartedly agree with you. Even after years of watching talks from various meditation teachers and practicing on and off. Now, it seems it is finally clicking and I have found my guru.
Thank you
The idea of teaching kids meditation is brilliant, I wish I could receive this kind of education when I was young
This should really be a global thing for children everywhere. It's more fundamental than maths, science or any other subject!
There is saying in tamizh language, "Manam oru kuranggu" which means the subconscious is a monkey. Astonishing facts of meditation is explained beautifully in this documentary .
dafuq is tamizh language cant you spell it correctly
Love how they included the opinions of the Kids they are already so wise wow ! If we would teach this in Schools we would have more Peaceful Human-being’s instead of half Zombies who don’t know themselves and became Human Doings !
It was surprising to me too how articulate they were about the benefits... this should be considered at every school :)
I'm not stressed out anymore since I moved out of the city where there are few neighbors and I meditate constantly taking things slow. People and stress go hand-in-hand the noise they create and conflicts and impersonalism
I'm so glad to see Joseph Goldstein here. One of the best teachers I've ever had the pleasure to learn from.
Well done guys! Beautiful setting with beautiful scenes; a meaningful and inspiring work.
But be careful though; meditation is not the universal panacea that will solve all your problems and discomforts of your life.
Try it with an open and innocent mind, free from expectations and unrealistic hopes.
Better start when you are reasonably well and comfortable and then, keep trying again and again without holding scores.
And never blame yourself for failing for there is no winner or loser in the game.
Around 27:50 what that woman says is amazing. This documentary has such strong purpose that I can clearly see what your intention is. I agree with some of the things said here, like meditation is not used to become happy but is used to become more aware of your own thoughts and emotions and in turn that makes it easier to deal with anything that comes your way. It's like you're preparing for a kickboxing tournament but this tournament is your life and you're not training your muscles but your mind to be more aware. Lastly, thanks for this video.
Thank you for putting the time stamp ❤
This is a beautifull documentary. Simple, clear. Thank you
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Quite insightful indeed!
Excellent down to earth documentary on meditation. Thanks for the upload!
This is the best description of what meditation is that I have ever seen
This and The Power of Now totally helped me (they both teach a similar concept). When you first start meditating, the moment you become present my feel a bit...weird. Possibly even painful. Keep doing it and eventually it gets easier. The Chaotic Mind (Monkey Mind) is still a problem I deal with in my day to day life but I'm able to acknowledge it and find peace a lot easier.
Funny how out of nowhere I was recommended this video and it has answers and guidance to questions I’ve had in my mind for a long time! Thank you very much
Law of attraction Hassan 👍
It's not funny... Your microphone is open 24/7
Shame on you..You are an amazing man. Your country is Sri Lanka (Theravada buddist country)but dont know how to meditate clearly..
Same 🖖🏽 right on
Matrix
The children in school! We could massively change this country for the better by doing this in all schools with students AND teachers! I would love to see this happen.
Yes, fortunately it's spreading and affecting the whole school culture!
Great documentry i really liked how children shared there experience on mediation ❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it
Mindfulness Meditation and Self Inquiry are the three gems that Eastern civilization has gifted to humanity
The part with the kids was wonderful! It’s awesome to see how mature those kids have become through mindfulness.
This is a unique way of looking in to mindfulness and meditation. Make sense to apply to my own mind.
I think it would be good idea to teach meditation in schools
That is an excellent idea. Students would be more focused, pay better attention, and be happier and calmer.
They do in Thailand
@@KevJDunn Where ? I spent many years in thai and never saw it
I agree but unfortunately there are "certain people" that will view meditation as a threat to their particular world views and religions. They will fight it tooth and nail...
Absolutely 💯
Seeing the effect (and hearing their gifted ability to describe the changes) was a powerful experience. Hearing the instructor get emotional about how teaching mindfulness had enhanced her life left no doubt about the progressive nature of a method that is 2500 years old. . Mindfulness is being taught in prisons worldwide (yes, even tin the US) and the change in thee recidivism rates (and general level of violence) is a rapidly spreading model. Mindfulness could undo a lot of the damage that the social media ''culture'' is doing our children.
Excellent Video! TY! Stress, worries and “the communication breakdown” (voice Mail, email, voice trees and messaging) leave us alone, anxious and depressed. Human interaction should not be replaced with technology. Computers are wonderful, but they cannot replace human contact. This is adding to our “aloneness”. Hearing a computerized voice irritates the Hell out of me anymore. I need to meditate more??!!!!
The kids in school are the best, I loved all their comments, so sweet, 🤗👏
From past few days I was off balance I was searching for mindfulness information on RUclips and I came across this video. It really helped me to come back. I want to thank you all guys for creating this video and it was really cute to watch kids doing meditation.😉
Absolutely tremendous . Seeing the reactions from the chidren blew my mind . Not only should it be taught in schools but i can see how it would of helped 40 50 yrs ago. . great work!!!
Thank you!
So beautiful. Thank you! 🙏❤️🎉
Those kids 😍, wondefull. Thank you Rinpoche for bringing ancient wisdom and practice into our modern monkey life’s. It seems more relevant then ever. Thank you everybody for this wonderful journey 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing documentary! I'm trying to meditate and everytime i sit i fall asleep don't know why. Long way to go!
Just enjoy the time you're sleeping don't fight it, that just makes it worse welcome it and eventually it won't bother you.
Don't close your eyes
Thank you for uploading this wonderful documentary.
I'm so glad you liked it!
Thanks Mingyur Rinpoche and Thanks for this awareness and mindfulness documentary..
Awesome jobs and cant wait for other video, thank you 🙏
Definitely a must watch! What a great introduction to meditation. I can't wait to watch 'Wandering... but not lost'. I read Mingyur's book, 'In love with the world' and it is wonderful.
Great Inspiration GURUJI Prasad For ALL, Super Saturday Evening 11/6/22,19-20 PM.
Great documentary ! The psychology and the personality of the kids will be better and more balanced if they practice a lot like that
Thank you!!
Thank you for making this. I nearly cried through the whole thing and loved it. Hugs to all of you.
Thanks so much! Much appreciated!!
Are you from Kerala? 🙄
A week after meditation I noticed a positive change in my thought process. But I have this intuition that there's still something wrong.
I focus more on decluttering the thoughts in my mind rather than fully bringing my attention on the sound.
Fortunately, I found this video. I'm enlightened on what is meditation all about😊
Look for Jiddu Krishnamurthi, Osho, Raman Maharshi on what meditation is. And also, relaxation, effort, being natural, life, love, bliss, the path, the ego and self identity, dis-identification, spirituality, and whatever u explore. There is a treasure trove for any seeker
@@contemplore It seems like there's a lot for me to learn. I'll take note of this, thank u and merry christmas💖
@@soulexesns9522 ✨
It's incredible how kids understand that and apply that really well
That was pretty nice. Thank you.
May all beings be truly happy.
More people need to see this
Thank you for the message God bless you and your family 💖💙🙏
Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
All depends on how you look at life, how your mind is🌼
This IS such a mind opener!! Well recommended for everyone, and 2 important sectors, for me that i enjoyed seeing the changes, hospitals and schools,especially...may this be shared far and wide✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
Blessings Rinpoche🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for sharing this documentary. Such a great introduction to meditation.It's definitely a good idea to teach meditation in schools.
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
This documentary is awesome. Thank you so much, it clarified a lot on what I was doing wrong with my mindfulness practice.
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I have had tremendous help from neurofeedback and brainwave entrainment. Anyone looking to greatly augment their meditation practice might consider these options or others.
India’s Biggest Gift to World ❤️
India is not one country but a UNION of independent nations / kingdoms created by Muslim Mughals and then by the Brits annexing the last remaining and ever independent Southern Dravida kingdoms.
@@timetoreason7090 But this wisdom and practice came way before any of these entities even breathed to life and at the time it was a part of the territory of modern India.
Thanks to Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche and the makers of this film!
Very interesting....how many other people realised they had been inadvertantly raised to be emotionally reactive, rather then responsive? So if our parents didn't have the tools to give to us, then why aren't we covering this in public school? Seems to be the most important thing anyone can learn. Most of my life I have been trying to manage my emotions but didn't know there was actually a path...... So much time wastefully spent in an overemotional state and the damage I caused when in them....
Agreed! This is so important yet it is largely ignored!

Beautiful work ! It changes the way we see the world
wow thank you ! i feel a huge difference after watching! im ready to take on the world
Happy to hear that!
Felicitaciones, muy buena explicación, el meditar debe generar un efecto en la conducta; compasión, cordialidad, atención, respeto, amor.
I highly recommend the classic chinese novel 'Journey to the west' for a prolonged use of the metaphor 'Monkey of the mind, Horse of the will'
Im not sure how useful its is for meditators but it is a fun and at times beautiful, profound story.
wow only few people are watching this and you and me are the lucky one
That is a great outlook❤
When I meditate, I create order from chaos. I focus on all my thoughts because all my thoughts become one.
You will never know.... beautiful. Thank 😊
A very awesome piece. Great work keep up updating us on such important issues
Surprised to see no mention on how you can hallucinate from meditation, When you feel the vibration and sound on the inside and start to breath real deep very fast
Paul, wonderful film. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Much to process there.. The part with the kids was so amazing... Nice job.
in my humble opinion, you miss the real point of meditation,.......... . the answer of the question. WHO AM I ??? ( you have just showed the top of the iceberg ) but this is a good video and good starting point. This is the first step. there is much, much, more to discover through meditation lot of love jean-luc. 🕉
Amazing, I felt immideate change. That's why God told Us he give us, eyes, hearing and ability to comprehend.
He tell us that we don't pay attention. And etc.
And God tell us to slow things down, don't rush to understand His message.
(from Quran)
And yet we don't use all of it well.
Thank you...!
A great technique, I hope I can contribute to share this knowledge.
Hey I’m in this! Beautiful doc 🙏🏾✨
Ads come, be aware of it, and let it go. Dont fight it, just be in peace and if you want to, press jump button. Peace
Gratitude 💗🤍✨
You can reach a peaceful blissful, no thought zone.. it takes a little work but can be done.
Very good! It’s funny - i made so many short documentary productions over the years that I immediately recognize the canned FinalCut music beds. 😬 it’s a great doc. 👍🏻 Good job.
man this next generation might actually stand a rate, those kids are top notch.
Great teacing video. Finally my blockage broken thanks😊
Glad it helped!
Namaste, I am grateful that the ancient wisdom of INDIA and Hinduism ( yoga and meditation) is being appreciated and adapted all over the world now...
This ancient wisdom is not of Hinduism. It is of Buddhism. Please don't try to take the credit of others.
@@1world488 Yes Buddhism is a great tradition which developed its own way of meditation. But Buddhism is also a product of Indic tradition. Hinduism is not an organized religion, its a spiritual way of life that existed millenia before Buddha. Buddha himself was Gautama Siddhartha a Hindu..Buddhism has taken a lot of the ancient wisdom from Hinduism as well. Please learn some history before making sweeping statements.Or is it that you dont want to give credit where its due? :)
Dimensions 😳😳 there is no religion called hinduism my friend. India has got all ingredients you can also make ur own recipe and name it. That’s what Buddhism Jainism Sikhism my friend. Who thought gowthama meditation did he introduced ? No already there wer gurus everywhere in india but not all wants to come to publicly. If someone is trying to take credit here is Buddhist if they claim it’s different and got all from nothing. Every Buddhist shld give due respect to this ancient india for its ancient spiritual knowledge.
@@sweetchinmusic3 Firstly, please take note of this, Buddha is not a name of a person but a honorific title given to the enlightened, transcendent ones. Prior to Gautama Buddha, there have been countless Buddhas to walk this samsara. Beings have become Buddha doing meditation when Hinduism did not even exist. In fact, Buddhism has no beginning whereas you can date the origin of Hinduism which you clearly did in your comment. Buddhism has no founder because it is just a law of nature which can only be discovered. Secondly Hinduism is an organized religion and also one product of Indic civilization just like Buddhism, to the Buddhists and the rest of the world. As Hindu seeing Hinduism as not an organized religion is your way of perceiving but to the Buddhists and to the rest of the world, Buddhism and Hinduism are two separate religions today with different beliefs and philosophies. Buddhists don't agree to Hinduism and its beliefs of Gods or whatever. The superficial few similarities that you are comparing have total different definitions and meanings. Thirdly, Gautama Buddha was never a Hindu. He was born to a Hindu family but never showed any interest in Hinduism. That is why he discovered Buddhism for which he was destined. Plus Buddha did not take any wisdom from any religion. He taught what he discovered. He didn't deny what was true. He denied what was not true. An unenlightened beings like us can't degrade an enlightened beings, the transcendent ones who know everything. Accusing awaken beings for stealing is foolish. Lastly, all I want to say is, stealing the credit of others' work is not so pleasant. It's shameful. Learn to give credit to the rightful owners. Don't demand. And yeah before throwing any assertion against other religions, make sure you read the scriptures of other side and understand how different it is from your beliefs instead of making groundless claims. In fact, why don't you do the same observation with the Buddhist and Hindu yogis and see the result?
@@kirangodishelas please dear Hindu, don't make any assumptions based on your biased beliefs and understanding. The gurus of Siddhartha were not even Hindu. They were Sramanic who clearly opposed Hinduism. Not much later, even those Sramanic saints followed Buddhism and Buddha. Moreover even Hindu saints converted to Buddhism. Prior to Gautama Buddha, beings have become a Buddha doing meditation when there wasn't even a belief called Hinduism according to Buddhist scriptures. Don't demand for which you are not even rightful, dear Hindu

Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much
There were way too many interviews with people from meditating communities. They felt like filler. That being said, I enjoyed this documentary, and I think it was done well.
Thank you for making this wonderful documentary. Rejoice 🙏 For your reference, the Chinese subtitle provided is Traditional Chinese but it's written as Chinese (China) 中文(中國), which is mistaken because Simplified Chinese is used in China while Traditional Chinese is used in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Could you kindly correct it? Thank you very much🙏
