I am Christian I do not believe in church. But feel if Buddha understood ego he would just say ego. My mindset is i love me and love everyone else. People will be people it is not up to me forgive them just love them. We are all "sinners" but no sin is greater than another. All we can do is give love and help someone understand they are not alone. We all deserve to be loved even if its just from ourselves.

To the *worthwhile person* seeing this, your dream is not dead. Don’t allow the past and current pains and hurts stop and define you. You’re more than a conqueror. Rise up and put yourself together. Keep pushing your future depends on it. I wish you all the best in life ❤️.
this " future" you are talking about is just a form of anxiety in your mind. It`s time for you to " let go" of anxiety and to live your life " as it is". Your " self image" is the illusion that holds you back!. Keep things simple. And meditate without " perfectionism". That is you are not perfect, and the world is not perfect. Face this as a fact. Walk in peace
This is so comforting. I came from a fundamentalist christian background, emphasising that we DESERVED suffering, because of someone eating a fruit. This never made sense to me, but to me accepting suffering and the fact that it's not my fault, makes me better understand life and myself.
You could not accept that you are suffering because of the apple. Or Adam. But you are ready to accept suffering because it is someone else’s fault. What sense is that? Isn’t it the same?

HIT ME "HIT ME". This quote by Joker actor Heath Ledger from "The Dark Knight" made a huge impression on me and inspired me to create a philosophy. It has helped me to make peace with all my issues of suffering. Through practices of all kinds. I have learned to love my suffering and ultimately my life. The hits of suffering are a fact of life and the key to enlightenment. A hit from suffering affects you internally in the mental, in the psychic, or superficially in the body. All beings and all things have this powerful side to them. "HIT ME" always works. Because you are never disappointed with this expectation. Because something almost always hits you. Whether it's unwanted emotions or thoughts. And even if you don't want to be hit by something, it still hits you. So it still works as an expectation. It even works when positive things hit you. Like soft raindrops or a soap bubble. Just like joyful or happy emotions and or thoughts. Hit me always, all the way, in every way, anyway. "Anyway", because sometimes or often I don't want to be hit and it hits me anyway. Then it happens anyway. Or I say although I don't want to be hit, I still want to be hit in order to gain strength. When you commit to such an idea, you unlock the path to enlightenment. It is therefore a good reason to follow the path of loving our suffering. As it brings great benefits to oneself. From ourselves not wanting to be hit and not wanting to take the suffering into ourselves, to wanting to be hit and wanting to take the suffering into ourselves. It always works, no matter in what form we are hit. Once you have developed a certain level of this practice, you master suffering and become truly enlightened in love for suffering. And for conflict, but also for what hits us in general, I quote Bruce Lee, from the movie "Enter The Dragon": "I do not hit. It hits all by itself."
This was a very good explanation of Buddha's ideas about suffering, I'm sure it goes a lot deeper, but this was very helpful to me to start understanding Buddhism. Thank you.

I've personally known some Buddhists for many, many years, one on a very intimate level, raised in Asia as a Buddhist and I've been to a Vietnamese Temple many times. The two things I learned and appreciate about Buddhism is to be present and the practice of mediation. The negatives are from my observations they live their lives in the middle ground, somewhat detached, seeking to avoid suffering and pain at all costs because that was Buddha's big thing, brought on by his shock when he saw the real world. Buddhists seek to avoid suffering but in the end they avoid much joy in their lives because they run from suffering and pain, thinking of it as a negative instead of a positive as that can lead to real growth and understanding.
Buddhists typically don't run from suffering; they learn to adapt to the fact that nothing lasts forever, and that being attached to that which is impermanent is a recipe for being held captive by negative feelings of dissatisfaction and angst. Buddhists are not detached from feelings of joy. They embrace temperance and self control, and employ discipline as a method of coping with unstable environments and other people. It's easy to misunderstand their approach due to our own preconceptions about life in general, and the fact that almost everyone tends to believe they know better. Buddhists seek to eliminate suffering by limiting their desire and ambition, not out of fear, but through recognition that an unbridled ego never feels truly satisfied, because for those who allow greed and desire to control their thoughts and actions, there is no such thing as "enough". Anyone who claims to have figured out the truth is already misguided. Those who know the "way" do not tell others what to think or believe, but rather let them learn through self discovery. Only the ignorant speak are willing to speak with authority about something that isn't in keeping with the true principles of the Dow.
Simple but explained in many ways, it's a eloborate way and the root cause of suffering is from attachment for our possession, and objects we love , excellent.thankyou .
Good video, but you get some important things wrong: "suffering" is a poor translation of "dukkha". Dukkha is more like unsatisfactoriness. Suffering implies that there is only dukkha found in painful things, but the Suttas state that there is dukkha in pleasurable things as well by way of their impermanence. Also, "tanha" (thirst, craving) is NOT desire. Desires are fine. You have to have a desire to alleviate the dukkha of yourself and others, to reach nibbana. Craving or clinging is an unhealthy or pathological attachment to things.

The Buddha had the right idea about life . He acknowledge the idea that the world was Samsara a world in which suffering is always there . And no matter how perfect we try to be . There will be imperfection.,desire and suffering . But, he taught mindful living , and the universal compassion and acception. You are what you are . These are tools to live a full life and a true life , as you are . With all you faults .
The irony, is that many people come to buddhism to find perfection. When in reality the message of Buddhism is that life is imperfect. And that there will alway`s be problems in the wold, in our family, at work. And so on. And that accepting this will make life more easy to bear. Human ignorance, narcissism, greed creates most of our problems. And then our reactions to these problems creates even more problems and suffering ( the ignorance of our own ignorance creates compounded problems)
Such a wise words of life, life from childhood to adulthood and old age we suffer, we struggle for living, war brings suffering, losing our parents and children and belonging. One should be detached.

Very educative. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

Yes it will help you with your own effort. Not through a mythical sky daddy up in the sky. Mindfulness helped me a lot when I was going though trauma when I left Christianity, If you have read the Bible it teaches hell fire and eternal damnation to non believers including Buddhists, Hindus, Taoist and whoever is not a believer yes a BELIEVER [no matter what, you have to obey and believe] in Jesus. Mindfulness is a secular stripped down version of Satipattana Sutta. Through mindfulness I found Buddha Dhamma, and helps me in my day to day life, right here right now. Buddhism helped me enormously during COVID time. It brought me comfort, and less fear and at the same time show love, compassion, kindness and mercy to less privileged whey God was nowhere to be seen to help sick and dying people. Buddhism NEVER wish anyone to believe or put you in eternal hellfire. Now I am free from fear and Jesus bondage. I do not call myself a Buddhist follow Buddha Dhamma by learning it. May all sentient beings be happy and safe Metta to you.
@@timetoreason7090 I am very happy for you bro But retrospect yourself even more Buddhism, Christianity, Islam are all just religions Ask yourself "Can the mind be free of religions?" Or It isn't about wisdom attainment as if you read and practice Buddhism or Taoism and understand their beliefs They are still their beliefs, They're not your beliefs..... Try to get your own philosphy which suits you personally even though it sounds stupid to others....... you've done a great job coming this far, now move past religions
Life is full of greetings and partings, sun rises and sun sets. The great thing about bad times is that they don't last forever and the bad thing about good times is that they don't last forever. Everything follows a cycle.
As a Thai person, we have learnt four Noble Truths since we were children. Not as detailed as in this video, but only four words "ทุกข์ สมุทัย นิโรธ มรรค". Thais have been aware of suffering since they were children. The first time someone in the family died, the first time your heart was broken ... What is this feeling? How does it happen? How to escape from this feeling of suffering? We do all of this automatically. It is the basis of Buddhism in Thailand.

The Buddha was not a philosopher - in fact, he very much denied that many times and always stated that he only teaches 2 things: suffering and how to end it

The hope is in Buddhist principles and ideas for a Star Trek society.

Striving or at least believing for more, most crucial.
'The entire purpose of suffering is when it ends'. Don't let people fool you to think we must live our entire lives without moving forward, meaning getting out of the suffering. Reading about his teachings helped me many years ago.

@@amarmrh133 The highest school of Buddhism is the practice Falun Dafa (the Great Way). Just go online and it is all there, truthfulness-compassion-tolerance. The teacher is Master Li Hongzhi.
Duka and dukkha are different. This author describes duka as dukkha. If there’s something that ends with bad results but gives enjoyment till it’s there, it cannot be considered as happiness. People look for happiness with mind and body, and get attached to things/people/feelings/ideas that make them happy, which results in the cycle of birth. The lord Buddha shows that people are looking for happiness “within the suffering”, instead of ending the suffering. - for anyone looking to end suffering -

I am quoting a story told by Alan Watts. One day the Buddha said to his followers, " you suffer, because you desire". So the followers left and proceeded to shun desire, to denounce desire, to gid ride of any desire. When the followers returned to the Buddha, he say's, " but your desiring not to desire"! Yikes! Now they want to know how to get rid of that:). This is the stage at which i find myself. How do you get ride of that:)
Let go of the desire to be anywhere else but where you are right now in all areas of your life. You can have goals, but let go of the outcome and let go of feelings that come when plans do not go as planned. :)

Hi, can you do videos from holy texts ? Like Krishna's teaching from the Bhagavad-Gita? It also contains many moral values which I believe everyone can benefit from and u can get many video ideas from the various types of moral texts from the Bhagavad-Gita
Living many of these pointers, joyous/painful, is itself a life lived well. Success in existence is defined in many ways. The definition of success, in our civilized world, sucks.
Even this philosopher drew inspirations from Buddhism for his works: "To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering."-Friedrich Nietzsche
For most people including myself, it is pretty much impossible to live without any desire or cravings. I wonder If anyone can live without desire? Also, from my experience, the more you try to detach the more attach you become. I don't know these things you said here are practical in life, particularly in today's life where we seeing each great moments of our fellows which make us believe that we always lack something. I am one of those who trying to not have any desire or cravings but somehow the desire gets generated in my mind and eventually I become disappointed because most of my desire doesn't fullfill in my life. Now O don't think there is any way to abondoning suffering other than just tolerate it and wait till the end. That's what I think.

To suffer consciously, is probably the answer. But,we live in a world that has great influence and demands of you,a self gain,and promotes your lack. This slight of hand" is how advertising works. works .
There is an achievement in suffering. It is not a pain. It is the Times Demand for the balancing of the mother Earth. The mother Earth and it's Environment give us her pain. So we feel suffering.

In conclusion,don't do anything negative only in this temporary world actually,because it will give bad aura and bad luck only in this temporary world actually and the hereafter also.
'Non-trivial' sufferings are due to uncontrollability to and lack of resources in our physical world. If Mindstream (a Buddhist's concept) does indeed go through rebirth cycles forever, then maybe in the NOT so far-fetched future after consciousness transfer is achieved by technologies, Mindstream can then be transferred out from the biological brain to artificial system ('non-trivial' sufferings can then be eliminated). There still have hope for everybodies (include animals), if rebirth cycles do exist. You will one-day be in that 'uploaded Paradise'. At this moment, just use religions as temporary pain-killers to alleviate sufferings in our physical world (religions are very effective in doing this job indeed, more than the so-called materialism/physicalism).
Yeah, but you have to leave the tunnel to see it. So, it's up to you whether or not you have the courage to come out into the light, or crouch in the dark...

Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.
Oh my goodness, it opens up my mind
I love Buddhism
"The search for divinity... lies not in worldly things... but in the mind..."
I needed this
Some offices are very toxic
Right now things look fine for me as since I joined the office
I have been meditating a lot at night after I come home, therefore I'm able to practice detatchment easily....
Yes it will help you with your own effort. Not through a mythical sky daddy up in the sky. Mindfulness helped me a lot when I was going though trauma when I left Christianity, If you have read the Bible it teaches hell fire and eternal damnation to non believers including Buddhists, Hindus, Taoist and whoever is not a believer yes a BELIEVER [no matter what, you have to obey and believe] in Jesus. Mindfulness is a secular stripped down version of Satipattana Sutta. Through mindfulness I found Buddha Dhamma, and helps me in my day to day life, right here right now. Buddhism helped me enormously during COVID time. It brought me comfort, and less fear and at the same time show love, compassion, kindness and mercy to less privileged whey God was nowhere to be seen to help sick and dying people. Buddhism NEVER wish anyone to believe or put you in eternal hellfire. Now I am free from fear and Jesus bondage. I do not call myself a Buddhist follow Buddha Dhamma by learning it. May all sentient beings be happy and safe Metta to you.
@@timetoreason7090
I am very happy for you bro
But retrospect yourself even more
Buddhism, Christianity, Islam are all just religions
Ask yourself "Can the mind be free of religions?" Or
It isn't about wisdom attainment as if you read and practice Buddhism or Taoism and understand their beliefs
They are still their beliefs,
They're not your beliefs.....
Try to get your own philosphy which suits you personally even though it sounds stupid to others....... you've done a great job coming this far, now move past religions
@@ArchitectureUprisingIndia True words of wisdom
Life is full of greetings and partings, sun rises and sun sets. The great thing about bad times is that they don't last forever and the bad thing about good times is that they don't last forever. Everything follows a cycle.
I hope you are right
I needed this tonight. Thank you
Thank you Buddhism
Being in a comfort zone only causes you to get in a rut and through my suffering I've been able to overcome my fears.
But we all need a great teacher to really advance on our path to enlightenment, Falun Dafa
As a Thai person, we have learnt four Noble Truths since we were children.
Not as detailed as in this video, but only four words "ทุกข์ สมุทัย นิโรธ มรรค". Thais have been aware of suffering since they were children. The first time someone in the family died, the first time your heart was broken ... What is this feeling? How does it happen? How to escape from this feeling of suffering? We do all of this automatically. It is the basis of Buddhism in Thailand.
Suffering teaches us to be kind. Wisdom springs from suffering. We have formed the wrong conclusions and have become shallow fun seekers, looking to be entertained constantly, anything but just being here............................Falun Dafa

@@jeffforsythe9514 suffering makes people cruel what are you talking about
@@minecwaftcat4474 Just the opposite is true, suffering teaches us compassion for others, making someone suffer is cruel. Falun Dafa
@@jeffforsythe9514 the reason why anyone would harm others is because of suffering. If a thief steals money he probably suffers from poverty. A murderer suffers from hate and a rapist suffers lust. If there were no suffering nobody would harm another.
Thanks!
Thank u for this. I just keep getting neglected I see no hope
Thank you! A wonderfull video! I enjoy every one of the philosphers videos:) ..thank you once more
The Buddha was not a philosopher - in fact, he very much denied that many times and always stated that he only teaches 2 things: suffering and how to end it
JESUS CHRIST is LORD and He came into the world, taking on human flesh, being the sinless and spotless Lamb of GOD, Who lived perfectly, died because of our VILE sins, and was raised for our justification. REPENT. turn away from your sins and turn to GOD and give Him all the glory, honor, and praise. HALLELU YAH. Amen.
@@JESUSistheTRUTH-ROBLOX lmao why
@@ltblue1223 buddha’s dead. if I want eternal life, peace, and joy, why would I go to a dead man? wouldn’t it be more commonsensical to go to the living? JESUS CHRIST rose from the dead, He holds the keys to life everlasting, peace and joy, absent of all suffering.
@@JESUSistheTRUTH-ROBLOX If Jesus never actually died, he didn’t sacrifice anything. He napped for a few days, my senile grandmother does that all the time

Suffering is often necessary to achieve a meaningful result, nothing is free and nothing in life that is worthwhile comes easily.
The hope is in Buddhist principles and ideas for a Star Trek society. One where our technology does attempt to alleviate and even conquer old age, but we must also develop ways of peace on our journey to perfection and accept when we are imperfect. Striving or at least believing for more, most crucial.

A good mnemonic for remembering 8 fold path:
"Until thoughts stop acting like excite monkeys - Confusion!"
Understanding
Thoughts
Speech
Actions
Livelihood
Effort
Mindfulness
Concentration
By speech is it the way we present our selfs ? Or the way we speak ?
'The entire purpose of suffering is when it ends'. Don't let people fool you to think we must live our entire lives without moving forward, meaning getting out of the suffering. Reading about his teachings helped me many years ago.

@@amarmrh133 The highest school of Buddhism is the practice Falun Dafa (the Great Way). Just go online and it is all there, truthfulness-compassion-tolerance. The teacher is Master Li Hongzhi.
Awesome
Happiness is not by chance but by choice, it's within ourselves
I ❤ this
Any other thoughts?
Duka and dukkha are different. This author describes duka as dukkha.
If there’s something that ends with bad results but gives enjoyment till it’s there, it cannot be considered as happiness. People look for happiness with mind and body, and get attached to things/people/feelings/ideas that make them happy, which results in the cycle of birth. The lord Buddha shows that people are looking for happiness “within the suffering”, instead of ending the suffering.
- for anyone looking to end suffering -

Buddha, the enlightened one, was born in Nepal .However he got enlightened in South east India.
Buddhism, in a nutshell, is that we all suffer and can end suffering by right thinking. Focus on these two truths.
Good work👏🏻👏🏻 Keep working hard
Great
I am quoting a story told by Alan Watts. One day the Buddha said to his followers, " you suffer, because you desire". So the followers left and proceeded to shun desire, to denounce desire, to gid ride of any desire. When the followers returned to the Buddha, he say's, " but your desiring not to desire"! Yikes! Now they want to know how to get rid of that:). This is the stage at which i find myself. How do you get ride of that:)
Letting go is the key. You don't desire what you don't need.
@@varunnagrare4912 Good answer!
Let go of the desire to be anywhere else but where you are right now in all areas of your life. You can have goals, but let go of the outcome and let go of feelings that come when plans do not go as planned. :)
@@tiffanyhau1254 Thank you.
You need a great teacher, Falun Dafa
Fantastic 💙
There is only one way to be rid of suffering ! Permenantly ! Oblivion!
Searching for happiness implies that you don’t already have it.
There is only suffering if there is a person who suffers. It’s not personal
Love this.

‘Make our sufferings our teacher’ -Kierkegaard
Living many of these pointers, joyous/painful, is itself a life lived well. Success in existence is defined in many ways. The definition of success, in our civilized world, sucks.
Even this philosopher drew inspirations from Buddhism for his works:
"To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering."-Friedrich Nietzsche
interesting
If it is in your mind, take care it may really happen !
Learned a lot from your vids, thanks :)
thanks a lot!
For most people including myself, it is pretty much impossible to live without any desire or cravings. I wonder If anyone can live without desire? Also, from my experience, the more you try to detach the more attach you become. I don't know these things you said here are practical in life, particularly in today's life where we seeing each great moments of our fellows which make us believe that we always lack something. I am one of those who trying to not have any desire or cravings but somehow the desire gets generated in my mind and eventually I become disappointed because most of my desire doesn't fullfill in my life. Now O don't think there is any way to abondoning suffering other than just tolerate it and wait till the end. That's what I think.

Many of the Buddhist videos in youtube are poorly translated and greatly misunderstood.

Suffering is God showing us how to handle certain situations and we really need to be Suffering with pain because it makes us to be a much stronger l person 💪

Yes
To suffer consciously, is probably the answer. But,we live in a world that has great influence and demands of you,a self gain,and promotes your lack. This slight of hand" is how advertising works. works .
If one understands religion...they understand that science doesn't have the answers... psychiatry isn't mental health... religion is...😇😇

It is not a pain.
It is the Times Demand for the balancing of the mother Earth.

buddha also says , to end suffering you should not give birth as that person also is prone to suffering.
In conclusion,don't do anything negative only in this temporary world actually,because it will give bad aura and bad luck only in this temporary world actually and the hereafter also.

'Non-trivial' sufferings are due to uncontrollability to and lack of resources in our physical world. If Mindstream (a Buddhist's concept) does indeed go through rebirth cycles forever, then maybe in the NOT so far-fetched future after consciousness transfer is achieved by technologies, Mindstream can then be transferred out from the biological brain to artificial system ('non-trivial' sufferings can then be eliminated). There still have hope for everybodies (include animals), if rebirth cycles do exist. You will one-day be in that 'uploaded Paradise'. At this moment, just use religions as temporary pain-killers to alleviate sufferings in our physical world (religions are very effective in doing this job indeed, more than the so-called materialism/physicalism).
HOW CAN I MAKE VIDEOS LIKE THAT?

how about try practice ahimsa??

Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?
Yeah, but you have to leave the tunnel to see it. So, it's up to you whether or not you have the courage to come out into the light, or crouch in the dark...
Nope
I'd prefer to stay in the dark since entering the light means reincarnating in this cursed world again
