Words can't express how grateful I am in this now present moment witnessing the Divine Mother express herself through you. Many blessings and much love!
Literally I'm crying. I'm a 22 year old girl. But i feel the same as that kind man said. I wanna thank all the people who work behind this channel.i know therapy is expensive. So I'm watching this channel whenever i felt sad. Thank You once again❤️🩹
look into marcus aurelius, he dealt with social anxiety and anxiety and knowing this he decided to figure out how to proactively and progressively live with it by connecting with himself on a daily basis and having pillars to combat those thoughts and feelings and allow himself to integrate himself into the world in spite of all he dealt with inside. what you just said i felt that way when learning about marcus aurelius, a former rome emperor that had his fair share of problems but found a way to live.
Every morning I go for a one hour walk at 5am to connect to the world. I see the moon I see the stars I hear the quiet I feel the presence Birds start to chirp This morning it was lightly raining but I kept walking. Amazing for my soul My day has now begun I'm 61
Sounds wonderful. Yes, there is that peace at that time of the day, maybe just a bird, then the sun starts to rise,... Enjoy your walks every day, it's so special. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I lost my wife of 50 years, 3 years ago. My children have left South Africa to seek their fortunes abroad. Most of my life is spent alone. At first it was really hard, but as time went by and after my acceptance that I had few options and just had to get on with my life. I am fortunate to be quite a creative person. I make knives, jewellery, Leatherwood and I paint, draw, make beer, brew bread and do a lot of journalling . It's during the making process of all I do, the design, preparation using the materials that is the zen for me.... my meditation! The focus on what am doing blocks my mind to depressing and nostalgic thoughts and get me through each day using time creatively.
Touching message, thank you for sharing. We are glad you were able to adjust and find a way to get on with life. It's certainly not easy after losing the partner of many years. We wish you all the best for life's journey, may all the creative activities keep you balanced and focused. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Same for me at 73 Live alone never thought I could be this content 2 cats that love me, add God, and alli do is fix.paint, add, change etc to my double wide home that now looks better than new I guess ya like you said the projects are very therapeutic Know that yu cn always move to say Davou philippines and hire a caretaker 24/7 for about 500 minth even a geriatric nurse Yes you do have options remember that Watch every man has a story You tube go see Bye from Oregon
I am grateful for this gentle soul sharing his thoughts. I am 62 yrs old now and always thought there was something wrong with me. I was born introverted and physically oversensitive to my environment (hives, stomach issues, etc starting at a very young age). What “normal” people view as “outgoing” (loud, competitive, attention seeking) just feels like aggression to me. Often, I just go somehere and sit in my car (my quiet bubble) to decompress from this loud, high pressure existence. I look forward to retirement as a time when I will finally be able to live a quiet life, and to find a quiet way to be of more service to others.
Thank you for watching. We are glad that we could share his story with you and it was comforting and helpful. So good that you can find places to just BE and decompress, may there always be a time and place for you to do that so you can cope with the pressure and hectic of life while you are still working. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you. I am happy to see the parallels in our lives, even though I know not who you are, the similarities in our existence somehow gives me peace. All the best to us both🙂
Isn’t it amazing how comforting it is to just sit in your cozy vehicle. In the winter I often will go out to my truck where it’s catching the warming sun rays and creating the perfect quiet, cozy escape pod to simply gather one’s thoughts.
@@n2daair23Yes! I totally agree about how wonderful it feels to have the warmth of the sun radiate through the car windows (in cool /cold weather). I want to curl up like a cat on a window ledge and take a nap!
So beautiful his way of looking at life. "They say being older is not for sissies. I didn't find life easy when I was young at all. As a small boy I loved more than anything being on my own. There was something anxious and self conscious when I was around people. When I was with a tree or a cat, the world was mine in a slightly different kind of way" I felt so happy reading those lines. That was me. That's exactly how I felt all along, and still do at 76. Loved this gentleman's way of looking at life. So reassuring ! Thank you Green Renaissance for this heart warming story.
I have wandered through mountains for over 30 years, some times with others, but the best time was on my own, being miles away from noisy towns and not being bothered by the selfish crowds.
To be afraid of others is to be afraid of yourself. Know that fear is the total opposite of love. So where there is fear there is something beautiful to gain and let go. ❤
Most disgusting feeling to be alone that talk all nonsense .. life to make real big family alot of sons be around you live care about each other the will care about you when being older
Spoken like a true introvert. About half of the population is like this. The other half seek to make the other half more like them. They push the deep value of friendship. However, as a 78 yo, my family are my close friends. All other friends have fallen away. I often wonder why, but find it a useless pursuit because I can't find the answers. We no longer communicate. I now conclude that friends are like dead skin cells, or hair, that sheds from your body, very naturally and it has little to do with anything you have done. I sometimes miss the old friends, my experiences with them, but those times will never come back. In the end, we have to be comfortable and grateful for the life you have and have made.
Thank you for watching and sharing your views and experiences. Quite interesting. May you continue to be content with life. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
What I love about this channel is I find a piece of me in every person, they always find words to express some feelings or experiences I had or still having but couldn't express myself correctly.. Thank you so much for sharing your light ❤️
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. We are so happy to read that our videos are so meaningful to you. May it continue. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
When I really need to center myself again and stop the mess in my head I come here. You have become my sacred place for healing. So glad you are here. Can's believe a year has passed!
Your words touch us. We are glad that his message means so much to you. It's wonderful to have you with us on our journey. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
For the first time in my 84 years l connected with the thoughts and words of this wonderful man.i don’t watch the news as it depresses me. I feel too deeply about the pain and suffering of the world, Gaza especially. I do meditate most nights. It helps me sleep.
Thank you for sharing, we are glad that Antony's message meant much to you. May his words help and carry you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I am reading all the comments and I am finding such happiness knowing that there are so many like minded people out there. I agree with everything he has said and feel the same, home in nature and happiness from within. I am learning a lot thru reading about Buddhism. We all can change the world with just a little compassion and understanding. Peace to all
Sweeeet soul. Loved even his quiet delivery. Every statement rang true for me also. I’m 77 woman and agree- it wasn’t easier when younger, just different. Love the solitude.
1000%. I honestly feel that Buddhism and the Dharma path is the way out of this mess of a world, or at least a way to deal with it in a more wise and skillful manner. Many blessings to you.
Cats are good for you, my Charlie is laying on my chest staying at me intently and purring, we are one, my wife and I adore him, and he connects with us, cats are very good for your soul and your mine.
I'm 26 and no matter what job I do, what environment I'm in, I can't seem to find the stillness I'm longing. It's been years since I feel a deep calling for monastic life. Earing these words is like a wake up call that I should not try more to fit in and go for that dream, so I can be fulfilled by a deep purpose, and endless love. Thank you, to everyone behind this channel end this kind hearted man, for this moment of pure beauty 🙏
Deep words that you are sharing with us, thank you for your openness. We are glad Antony's message meant much to you. May his message inspire and encourage you to follow the dream. Wishing you all the best for the road ahead. And we also thank you for the encouraging words about our work. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
you don't want to fit in but to stand out. This culture is killing yr soul, it requires you to consume and produce like a robot untill the resources of the earth are all consumed and eath isn't but a death pile of dust and contamined water. You are beautifull, but yr culture and tik tok and yr parents worship pride and selfishness and seperation which leads to all kinds of addiction (sex, porn, sugar, binge eating, scrolling, buying stuff so people will give you a thumbs up or even jealous look because you achieved superficial things like a car, a watch, a dumb phone or sneakers. Don't fall for the culture which will destroy nature and yr well being. STAND OUT. it is no sign of health to be well adjusted to a sick society😍Joy over board JOB
Wishing you all the very best in your journey. Trying to fit in does not work when you have a deep calling, so follow that calling and find your "home".
What a lovely man. I am a woman, who is 67 year young, and have become a recluse with my greyhound companion Madge. I have always been a very sensitive person, and had a hard time at school when I was a child. I always wanted to please people, but realize now that I was not getting the love and attention I craved myself. I am so grateful for what I have, and find it very hard when folk say something unkind to me, as I always strive to be kind and caring to others. I love nature, and my best place is to be out in it, but due to my sever anxiety, I can not be far from my home, as this is my safe place. I only go out to walk Madge, or to take the rubbish to the end of our private lane (owned by my neighbor, but where I have right of way over) which is in a very rural spot, with no passing traffic outside my small home. I do believe that we should be kind to others, and just hope that those who are not always kind to us, will see by example the error of their ways. xxx
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts and a bit about your life. Sorry that you struggling with such severe anxiety. We hope this video has had a calming effect on you and helped you a bit to relax and feel easy. Wishing you all the best and calmness for every new day. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
They are ordinary people, living their daily life. People like Antony surround us all every day. It's about making the time to truly listen to each other, with open hearts and minds. We all have a story to share if we stop and think about it. We usually put name of the person in the write up below the video if you want to check out more on the internet. Best wishes, Justine and Michael.💚
This is me in so many ways❤ Mr. Anthony Osler, you’ve put the words so eloquently out of my lips. You’re so on point in saying “ I don’t feel afraid of being dead, what frightens me is not living fully before I die.” At 61, I’ve never felt so alone yet so at peace and joyful within for finally finding myself amidst the craziness of this world. Yet it’s that same insanity out there that drew me inward and then suddenly pushed me outward to see and feel my connectedness with all humanity, especially all the pain and suffering of those misjudged, misplaced by war, mistreated due to their beliefs about God or country. I no longer question what’s wrong, but rather join them in prayer, in mindfulness and I try as best I could to do my part no matter how minuscule the impact. Bless you all for this wonderful reflection. The best so far for me!❤
To try to do your best - already the impact of that is huge. And you might never truly realise the ripples of impact that your kind words and actions might have. Keep shining your light dear one. Sending love. Justine and Michael. x
I think we as humanity, collectively need to 'wake up' as Antony says. To stop searching outside for what's actually within is the ultimate goal. I thoroughly enjoyed your wise words ❤
I saw the title of this film in my email and I was actually afraid to watch it. It took me a few days. It was as if I knew it’s message would strike deep into my core. And it did. I feel as if I could sit with this beautiful human in silence and be understood. On January 6th, the day of Epiphany I awakened to the fact I am autistic. Everything in my life made sense the moment I accepted that. It is because of films like this, the stories these souls tell, that have provided me light when I saw nothing but dark. Once again I thank you for spreading light all over the world. 💚🙏🏻🌎
What a touching comment, thank you for sharing, Scott. We are so glad you could come to the point of realization, that life looks a bit brighter now. And if our videos can help you on your path through life, we feel honoured. We are glad that we can share positivity. May your life be full of hope and joy. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
The Spectrum. Like another level of invisible lightwaves. I am working on acceptance now, after 60+ years of struggling to accept what I wasnt. It is an interesting turn in the road. The future, too short perhaps, but so much more than all that lies behind. Wishing you a great journey.
Thank you for your kind message, it really touches us. We are glad that we can share these videos with you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
It's the perfect day when you're still and alert. I find myself wondering where on earth is everyone going and it makes me sad. This in a wonderful video. very insiring.
The universe sent me a series of gifts by leading me to you. I have watched three films one right after the other and felt so blessed. Thank you so much.
Wonderful that you came across our channel and that you enjoyed the video you watched so far. We hope to share many more with you. Sending you warmest of hugs. Justine and Michael. 💚
Such a great way to start my morning. There’re so many lesson that resonate with me from this single video. Things I have been slowly learning as I walk through this life. And it’s just nice to hear someone much wiser talk about them. 1. We are one with nature. And there’s just something healing and calming about being with it. Find ways to connect with it. 2. Silence the noises and live this life mindfully, gently,sincerely, and authentically. 3. Feel and embrace all your emotions. This is how you’ll know that you’re truly alive 4. Don’t just believe anything and everything you’re told. Connect with your higher self. Connect with the rest of the planet and find out what more is out there for you. And then decide what is real for YOU!
Wow! I feel like he's my kindred spirit. I always thought something was wrong with me because I felt other people's energy and wanted to make them happy. Then I would withdraw. Now I love being in my seventies, alone and connected to nature.....planting flowers, having bees walk all over my book when I'm reading outside and have a wonderment of life. Thank you for sharing. My heart rejoices.
Sounds wonderful. We are glad you have arrived at a place of peace and contentment. So happy too that Antony's message resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I love this, not afraid of being dead, what frightens me is not living fully before I die. This is so important to me as well as I am aging with less time ahead of me than behind. It is the simple things, compassion, connection, and in the stillness, I see so much beauty. Thank you Antony for you thoughts are gifts.
Most disgusting feeling to be alone that talk all nonsense .. life to make real big family alot of sons be around you live care about each other the will care about you when being older

This man described my first experience of prayer in Alcoholics Anonymous. I prayed and found that stillness. I then went to Canterbury Cathedral a few weeks later and had such a lovely experience of my mind completely clearing time and time again whilst in prayer. It was a gift that saved my life ❤.
Thank you for sharing your experience, glad you found that stillness that time. Nice his message resonated with you so deeply. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I think I've listened to this six times and have taken his words into my heart. He has learned to live such a full life. This is exactly how I feel, happy alone and anxious stepping out. Always feeling I need to find a way to fit in, to make a difference in my life. He has described the contentment with just being who you were created to be. Please thank him for sharing his story. Wish I could know more of his story.
Thank you dear Jane, for opening your heart to all that Antony shared with us. Antony has quite a lot of content that he shares on their website - www.stoepzen.co.za/home.html. He shares some recorded talks, and you can also read more details about some books which Antony has written. I hope that this helps. Sending you much love. Justine and Michael x
Thank you for those profound thoughts. When the pandemia started I put a hummingbird feeder outside my window... for months it was the only comfortable interaction I had. Three years later they are still part of my morning coffee...
So happy his message spoke to you so deeply. Your experience with the bird feeder is touching, so wonderful that the birds are still there with you every morning. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

My God! It's almost as if I was watching myself in another body speaking those words. Every word he said resonates with me. I am not afraid of dying but I am afraid of living and not living my full potential in this life. Such a beautiful man and such a beautiful tender soul. Thank you so much for this beautiful video . As all of your videos are so special to me. I have shared your videos with so many people. They always bring such peace to me and so much to think about for my days ahead. I go back many times to many of your earlier videos and watch many of them over and over again. Each time I hear another message that I missed before. I love you guys. Thank you so much for the hard work you do. And thank you for the joy that your videos bring to me and the rest of the world. Please stay safe and healthy. 🙏🥰
What a lovely message Joe, thank you for sharing. So glad you could listen to Antony's words and they resonated with you so immensely. May our videos always carry you on your road ahead, thank you too for sharing them with others. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you Joe for sharing your words, I think you speak for so many of us…I listened to Anthony’s words at night before I went to sleep and again first thing when I woke in the morning and the message touches me deeply…
@@andymasse thank you so much Frank for your kind words. I love green Renaissance. I live alone on my little farm in the mountains of East Tennessee. I find so much peace and serenity listening to Green Renaissance. I have recently been through some pretty tough times with my partner of many years deciding to find somebody much younger. Oh well such is life anyway. I have survived lung cancer and several other medical issues. I am doing great now. At 73 years old and going on 30 I have so much hope and love to give to the world and share with others. Green Renaissance videos gives me so much love and peace to think about. And beautiful souls like you responding to my comment shows me there are many many more beautiful people left in this world. Thank you again Frank for your kind words.
I love the way he speaks, his calmness and he seems to be so kind,there is so much light in this man!The way he lives reminds me of my grandparents,a simple life!
This has helped me make a decision I have been struggling with for more than fifteen years. I too have been searching outside myself and am now returning to find what’s inside
That is so wonderful that Antony's message was so helpful. All the best further, may you find wonderful things, new ways, etc. looking on the inside. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I first watched this video with Antony the moment Justine & Michael posted over a year ago… he and Margy give me constant reminders to be grateful of my solitary rural and often sad life-existing process… Antony’s words are uplifting every time I listen… I also like to read and appreciate every comment… thank you Justine & Michael from my heart for your time, effort, skills and wisdom❤❤
Your message touches us deeply and encourages us, thank you for writing to us. We are so thankful that this video and their life story mean so much to you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Wishing you all the best for life's journey, for every new day. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
Blessings and Thankyou I love Rumi who said somewhere between right and wrong there is a garden I’ll meet you there…..it may just be a place in our minds where only Angels tread.❤❤❤
While quietly listening to this fellow’s every word, I’m in awe at how much of what he’s offering here really resonated with me ..what a beautiful human being he is ..and to read the comments shared by others (ie autism - me too, recent diagnosis) is helping me to get centered. I’m beyond grateful for this channel. What a gift it’s become to me. Much gratitude! - Tristan
Another beautiful film guys. He embodies the Tao. It’s so easy to SAY these things but he LIVES them. Thank you for always creating films that share real wisdom. It’s being LIVED here, not discussed, or lecture on, or philosophised about.
Your words touch us greatly, thank you for your encouraging words. Glad Antony's message meant much to you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
This man as a similar attitude to life and the living of it as I have . I have family and a few good friends and that is it , but I value my solitude. Its gold to me. As an empath I can feel the suffering and joy of the world . And I have compassion , great compassion. But, I cannot let it affect my personal well being . That's why I go for solitude.
Thank you, Antony, for your heartfelt words. You live through your heart, and that is beautiful. It matters because the energy of the love in your heart ripples out into the Universe, and it affects all of us in an inspiring way ❤ Thank you, GR, for another lovely film 🕊️💜🙏🏼
yes, an awakened human being...❤ "...I have no objection to being scattered in the fields and being forgotten..."...I never understood the need not to be forgotten...
“How can I just allow this life to be mine in the deepest way, including that I didn’t get it right?” This film brought me to tears, touched a deep spot in my spirit. What frightens me is not living fully.
Wonderful that his message spoke to you so deeply, thank you for being open to the message he shared. May his words inspire and encourage you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I WILL NOT FORGET YOU ANTHONY. . EVERY WORD you spoke, and how you shared them, are gifts of wisdom, compassion, humility, tenderness... Your presence IS palpable. Abundant blessing to you, and to the Green Team for your expressions of profound beauty and compassion., from a grateful heart 🙏🕯💝
That was beautiful. This man has a beautiful soul and I see a lot of myself in him....as I get older. This life has been a mighty struggle and each day is a challenge to keep going. I dont fear death but fear not living fully as he spoke to. And I welcome the journey being over when that time comes.
We are so glad that his message resonated much with you. So glad that we could share his message with you. may his words give you strength and courage for every day. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Well done! It's such a breath of fresh air when a person has come to a place of serenity. In such a fast paced society where relationships can be shallow and strained, being at peace with oneself and in touch with their surroundings is so inspiring.
Most disgusting feeling to be alone that talk all nonsense .. life to make real big family alot of sons be around you live care about each other the will care about you when being older
I don’t fear dying, I fear not living fully while I’m alive. What a great outlook, that would make this world a loving place if everyone could think that
Wow, your words go deep. Wonderful that his words were so valuable, so meaningful. All the best as you carry on with life's journey. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
There is no other channel on all of the internet that is more life changing then your channel. When I'm having a bad day I just put your videos on and let them run one after another.....so inspiring
Wow, we are touched Tishe!!! Thank you for these encouraging words. We are glad these stories help you on tough days. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Yes, How do people reflect on life without considering who or what created them in the first place? When I finally began to wonder about the Creator of it all was when I found the love and peace in it all.
I love that this wonderful man expresses in words what most good people feel inside. It’s so refreshing to hear we are not alone with these similar thoughts and how comforting to hear it verbalized by another living soul.
I have done you a disservice in not calling attention to and commending the videographer. All of your videos have beautiful and enlightening cont, but so is the filming, the style of how it is approached and presented to us. It is absolutely gorgeous and I thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤
Wow, thanks for these kind and encouraging words Rebecca. It means a lot to us. It's good to have you with us on our journey. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you. After taking in every articulate word Antony spoke, your mesmerizing images and the perfect soundtrack for his message, I am still and quiet, more in acceptance of my humanity and of the whole of this beautiful and heartbreaking life. Such gifts you give, GR. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words Linda. So glad that also this video touched you deeply. May you be inspired to have still and quiet moments, find acceptance and peace with all that's going on around us. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I totally get every word that he spoke. Nearly every word he spoke resonates with me, maybe because we seem to have similar personalities, basic traits and view regarding the world. I'm so glad I finally find my tribe in most of the people that is being featured in this channel..
Such a touching and kind comment, thank Cecilia. We are glad you feel so 'at home' with these videos, the people that are featured. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Another of my all-time favorites. I have already watched it several times and forwarded it to people I care about. It is a gift to them as much as your gift to me to bring this gentleman into my life. He is the kind of person I could sit down with and just take in his genuine heart and soul. Anthony has so many precious one-liners I can't list them all here. And, again, as always your videography and editing took the presentation to another level. I absolutely loved the shot of the cat walking across the top of the wall with the Zen Sky sign in the context of the shot and the feel of the message. I also took into the deepest place of my heart wisdom of not shutting out the dark things happening in the world because in so doing I become "brittle by trying to keep something out." Compassion and empathy is what keeps us more deeply loving and soft. Thanks, GR. My life is better for these videos.
Such a touching and beautiful message, thank you. We are glad this story meant so much to you. Thank you also for sharing our videos, we appreciate it. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife Many thanks- I've corrected the name now but I was thinking that perhaps yours and Michael's efforts also personify Buddhist service
Thank you for another beautiful story. Solitude is beautiful, but so is getting involved in the collective. The South African biologist Dave Pepler speaks about the people of Rwanda, how they collectively got involved in their own suffering and that of others through awakened participation. Solitude invariably involves stepping into the world and reaching beyond the self. Listening with compassion, loving beyond the self, that is truly remarkable.
its just imagined cries and suffering though meaning not happening in his real time, present moment. him, living alone, in his immediate environment wheres the cry? when he goes into the city, does he see people crying outside? 'the suffering of the world' is his own introjection. or just a default state of a human when he is all alone. but im not implying that that imagined suffering is null or inconsequential even though we could say it is an echo chamber, voices of others, if he finds meaning to such.
I cannot be more thankful to these beautiful souls on camera and off camera spreafing joy and love, i literally have tears in my eyes rn, thank you so much 🙏❤️
It truly is our pleasure to share these films with you, and thanks to you, for seeing the value in each new message shared. Big love! Justine and Michael 💚
I can't find the words to express how meaningful these videos are to me. They are so masterfully crafted to remind us of what's important in life. Thank you for always returning me to my heart and soul.
Thank you for your kind message, Donna. So touching to read how much these videos mean to you. Thank you for being with us on this journey. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I am a spiritual person i used to ignore my need for spiritual connection around me for years and I suffered a lot. 2014 is the turning point in my life and started the journey of finding my “inner self”. I never been happier
We are glad you found your 'inner self', Bulagta, that's wonderful. Glad you were able to see your need for change and do so. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
You are welcome, we are glad his message resonated with you. Lovely to have you with us on our journey. Sending you warmest of hugs from South Africa, Justine and Michael. 💚
Ohhhh 🥰❤👌 I never seem to find the right words to express the beauty of these videos. They all leave me speechless. So I now say nothing. I just feel them. And instantly feel better whatever the circumstances. Thank you.Lots of love from France.💘💘💘
Thank you for your kind words Tilly. We can feel your thankfulness and appreciation. So glad you enjoy our videos and they make you feel better. Sending you warm hugs to France, Justine and Michael. 💚
Very wise words from this man. I agree its all about being genuine and being your true authentic self and living life to the fullest. Appreciate what we have in this beautiful world 😊

"My job as a human being is to wake up and find my real connection with this universe and all the people in it, including their suffering"
A REAL life ❤️
You are beautiful thanks
Why do you want to bear their suffering I want to know please
Words to ponder on.... Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Words can't express how grateful I am in this now present moment witnessing the Divine Mother express herself through you. Many blessings and much love!
"I don't feel afraid of being dead; what frightens me is of not living fully before I die". I concur fully.

Not everyone needs theraphy, you can do it your way! 🌺
We are so much disconnected nowadays. Good to see that we can come back to the roots, to feel, to see, to touch. Thank you
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🌞
Every morning I go for a one hour walk at 5am to connect to the world. I see the moon I see the stars I hear the quiet I feel the presence Birds start to chirp This morning it was lightly raining but I kept walking. Amazing for my soul My day has now begun I'm 61
Sounds wonderful. Yes, there is that peace at that time of the day, maybe just a bird, then the sun starts to rise,... Enjoy your walks every day, it's so special. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I lost my wife of 50 years, 3 years ago. My children have left South Africa to seek their fortunes abroad. Most of my life is spent alone. At first it was really hard, but as time went by and after my acceptance that I had few options and just had to get on with my life. I am fortunate to be quite a creative person. I make knives, jewellery, Leatherwood and I paint, draw, make beer, brew bread and do a lot of journalling . It's during the making process of all I do, the design, preparation using the materials that is the zen for me.... my meditation! The focus on what am doing blocks my mind to depressing and nostalgic thoughts and get me through each day using time creatively.
You are a lucky man!
Danke für Deine Worte .. herzliche Grüße aus Köln 🍄💗🌸🔆🔑
Touching message, thank you for sharing. We are glad you were able to adjust and find a way to get on with life. It's certainly not easy after losing the partner of many years. We wish you all the best for life's journey, may all the creative activities keep you balanced and focused. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

Bye from Oregon
I think l can strong in my life after day
I am grateful for this gentle soul sharing his thoughts. I am 62 yrs old now and always thought there was something wrong with me. I was born introverted and physically oversensitive to my environment (hives, stomach issues, etc starting at a very young age). What “normal” people view as “outgoing” (loud, competitive, attention seeking) just feels like aggression to me. Often, I just go somehere and sit in my car (my quiet bubble) to decompress from this loud, high pressure existence. I look forward to retirement as a time when I will finally be able to live a quiet life, and to find a quiet way to be of more service to others.
Thank you for watching. We are glad that we could share his story with you and it was comforting and helpful. So good that you can find places to just BE and decompress, may there always be a time and place for you to do that so you can cope with the pressure and hectic of life while you are still working. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I never really knew what living was until invested in a camera and went into wildlife photography. I was alive being alone with wildlife
Thank you. I am happy to see the parallels in our lives, even though I know not who you are, the similarities in our existence somehow gives me peace. All the best to us both🙂
Isn’t it amazing how comforting it is to just sit in your cozy vehicle. In the winter I often will go out to my truck where it’s catching the warming sun rays and creating the perfect quiet, cozy escape pod to simply gather one’s thoughts.
@@n2daair23Yes! I totally agree about how wonderful it feels to have the warmth of the sun radiate through the car windows (in cool /cold weather). I want to curl up like a cat on a window ledge and take a nap!
So beautiful his way of looking at life.
"They say being older is not for sissies. I didn't find life easy when I was young at all. As a small boy I loved more than anything being on my own. There was something anxious and self conscious when I was around people.
When I was with a tree or a cat, the world was mine in a slightly different kind of way"
I felt so happy reading those lines. That was me.
That's exactly how I felt all along, and still do at 76.
Loved this gentleman's way of looking at life.
So reassuring !
Thank you Green Renaissance for this heart warming story.
Me too. ❤
At 78 I'm right there next to you!
@@mariaetheridge8343 ❤️
Me too Sarah ❤
Me too 💕
This is deeply relatable. I am very uncomfortable around crowds. But with animals and nature, I feel something full of bliss.
We are so happy that it was so meaningful to you, resonates with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Same ..exactly.
A Happy Contented Person is Never Lonely or Alone. Feel the Energy of All who Are the same Around the World. All is Energy Afterall
I have wandered through mountains for over 30 years, some times with others,
but the best time was on my own, being miles away from noisy towns and not
being bothered by the selfish crowds.
To be afraid of others is to be afraid of yourself. Know that fear is the total opposite of love. So where there is fear there is something beautiful to gain and let go. ❤
“I have no objection to being scattered in the fields and being forgotten” what a meaning full sentence 😢
Glad this sentence resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
He's so inspiring, he will definitely not been forgotten.
Wow
This is exactly how I feel.....
Most disgusting feeling to be alone that talk all nonsense .. life to make real big family alot of sons be around you live care about each other the will care about you when being older
Spoken like a true introvert. About half of the population is like this. The other half seek to make the other half more like them. They push the deep value of friendship. However, as a 78 yo, my family are my close friends. All other friends have fallen away. I often wonder why, but find it a useless pursuit because I can't find the answers. We no longer communicate. I now conclude that friends are like dead skin cells, or hair, that sheds from your body, very naturally and it has little to do with anything you have done. I sometimes miss the old friends, my experiences with them, but those times will never come back. In the end, we have to be comfortable and grateful for the life you have and have made.
Thank you for watching and sharing your views and experiences. Quite interesting. May you continue to be content with life. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Beautiful, thank you.
What I love about this channel is I find a piece of me in every person, they always find words to express some feelings or experiences I had or still having but couldn't express myself correctly.. Thank you so much for sharing your light ❤️
The piece you find in every person is oneness. We are all one.
@@jennifers.798 ❤️
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. We are so happy to read that our videos are so meaningful to you. May it continue. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Beautifully articulated!
I feel exatly the same. 💚
When I really need to center myself again and stop the mess in my head I come here. You have become my sacred place for healing. So glad you are here. Can's believe a year has passed!
Your words touch us. We are glad that his message means so much to you. It's wonderful to have you with us on our journey. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
This man is nothing short of pure genius.Love of life and simplicity with no fear of death.
Wonderful that his message meant so much to you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
For the first time in my 84 years l connected with the thoughts and words of this wonderful man.i don’t watch the news as it depresses me. I feel too deeply about the pain and suffering of the world, Gaza especially. I do meditate most nights. It helps me sleep.
Thank you for sharing, we are glad that Antony's message meant much to you. May his words help and carry you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I am reading all the comments and I am finding such happiness knowing that there are so many like minded people out there. I agree with everything he has said and feel the same, home in nature and happiness from within. I am learning a lot thru reading about Buddhism. We all can change the world with just a little compassion and understanding. Peace to all
So happy to read that his words resonated with you Lorraine. Sending you warm hugs, Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Sweeeet soul. Loved even his quiet delivery. Every statement rang true for me also. I’m 77 woman and agree- it wasn’t easier when younger, just different. Love the solitude.
Unfortunately, compassion does not make evil go away...
1000%. I honestly feel that Buddhism and the Dharma path is the way out of this mess of a world, or at least a way to deal with it in a more wise and skillful manner. Many blessings to you.
Totally agree. I just turned 65 two days ago and I know I'm heading up the mountain now. Fewer and fewer people are along for my journey.
Shared to Truth Social.
Glad his message resonated with you. Wishing you all the best for the future path, Jenna. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Jenna, I know what you mean as I’m turning 66 tomorrow. I think so many deeper thoughts now that I’m older💕
And when you get to the top you re only beginning ❤
Cats are good for you, my Charlie is laying on my chest staying at me intently and purring, we are one, my wife and I adore him, and he connects with us, cats are very good for your soul and your mine.
I'm 26 and no matter what job I do, what environment I'm in, I can't seem to find the stillness I'm longing. It's been years since I feel a deep calling for monastic life. Earing these words is like a wake up call that I should not try more to fit in and go for that dream, so I can be fulfilled by a deep purpose, and endless love. Thank you, to everyone behind this channel end this kind hearted man, for this moment of pure beauty 🙏
Deep words that you are sharing with us, thank you for your openness. We are glad Antony's message meant much to you. May his message inspire and encourage you to follow the dream. Wishing you all the best for the road ahead. And we also thank you for the encouraging words about our work. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚

you don't want to fit in but to stand out. This culture is killing yr soul, it requires you to consume and produce like a robot untill the resources of the earth are all consumed and eath isn't but a death pile of dust and contamined water. You are beautifull, but yr culture and tik tok and yr parents worship pride and selfishness and seperation which leads to all kinds of addiction (sex, porn, sugar, binge eating, scrolling, buying stuff so people will give you a thumbs up or even jealous look because you achieved superficial things like a car, a watch, a dumb phone or sneakers. Don't fall for the culture which will destroy nature and yr well being. STAND OUT. it is no sign of health to be well adjusted to a sick society😍Joy over board JOB
Wishing you all the very best in your journey. Trying to fit in does not work when you have a deep calling, so follow that calling and find your "home".
Been a hermit for 3.5 years. Love it. I'm 66 and can't believe I didn't think to do this earlier.
We are glad to hear that you are in a happy place. Enjoy! Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Yes we are too. For 20 years now, although it was there from the beginning really...just had to figure that out first!
I wish I could be, but people keep getting in the way ☹️
What a lovely man. I am a woman, who is 67 year young, and have become a recluse with my greyhound companion Madge. I have always been a very sensitive person, and had a hard time at school when I was a child. I always wanted to please people, but realize now that I was not getting the love and attention I craved myself. I am so grateful for what I have, and find it very hard when folk say something unkind to me, as I always strive to be kind and caring to others. I love nature, and my best place is to be out in it, but due to my sever anxiety, I can not be far from my home, as this is my safe place. I only go out to walk Madge, or to take the rubbish to the end of our private lane (owned by my neighbor, but where I have right of way over) which is in a very rural spot, with no passing traffic outside my small home. I do believe that we should be kind to others, and just hope that those who are not always kind to us, will see by example the error of their ways. xxx
Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts and a bit about your life. Sorry that you struggling with such severe anxiety. We hope this video has had a calming effect on you and helped you a bit to relax and feel easy. Wishing you all the best and calmness for every new day. Sending much love and kindness to you. Justine and Michael. 💚
How come they are all so profound and wise and yet the world doesn't know about them?
They are ordinary people, living their daily life. People like Antony surround us all every day. It's about making the time to truly listen to each other, with open hearts and minds. We all have a story to share if we stop and think about it.
We usually put name of the person in the write up below the video if you want to check out more on the internet. Best wishes, Justine and Michael.💚
This is me in so many ways❤ Mr. Anthony Osler, you’ve put the words so eloquently out of my lips. You’re so on point in saying “ I don’t feel afraid of being dead, what frightens me is not living fully before I die.”
At 61, I’ve never felt so alone yet so at peace and joyful within for finally finding myself amidst the craziness of this world. Yet it’s that same insanity out there that drew me inward and then suddenly pushed me outward to see and feel my connectedness with all humanity, especially all the pain and suffering of those misjudged, misplaced by war, mistreated due to their beliefs about God or country.
I no longer question what’s wrong, but rather join them in prayer, in mindfulness and I try as best I could to do my part no matter how minuscule the impact. Bless you all for this wonderful reflection. The best so far for me!❤
To try to do your best - already the impact of that is huge. And you might never truly realise the ripples of impact that your kind words and actions might have. Keep shining your light dear one. Sending love. Justine and Michael. x
Watching these videos root me in the simplicity of life again. It is a step away from the hustle of life and back into myself. ❤❤❤
I feel the same way. ❤️❤️❤️
Glad you like our work. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife 🤗🤗
Same for me 💚they are always in the right time for me ... Send Love to everybody 🙏
I think we as humanity, collectively need to 'wake up' as Antony says. To stop searching outside for what's actually within is the ultimate goal. I thoroughly enjoyed your wise words ❤
We are glad his message resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Truth. It's such a simple shift in one's perspective. But as a collective I wonder if humanity will ever get there?
It’s the agenda, its main goal and purpose is to keep us distracted. For if we all turned within, their game would be over.
🙃🌻 Solitude and loneliness are two very different worlds.
Absolutely. Thank you for sharing the thought. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I saw the title of this film in my email and I was actually afraid to watch it. It took me a few days. It was as if I knew it’s message would strike deep into my core. And it did. I feel as if I could sit with this beautiful human in silence and be understood. On January 6th, the day of Epiphany I awakened to the fact I am autistic. Everything in my life made sense the moment I accepted that. It is because of films like this, the stories these souls tell, that have provided me light when I saw nothing but dark. Once again I thank you for spreading light all over the world. 💚🙏🏻🌎
What a touching comment, thank you for sharing, Scott. We are so glad you could come to the point of realization, that life looks a bit brighter now. And if our videos can help you on your path through life, we feel honoured. We are glad that we can share positivity. May your life be full of hope and joy. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
The Spectrum. Like another level of invisible lightwaves. I am working on acceptance now, after 60+ years of struggling to accept what I wasnt. It is an interesting turn in the road. The future, too short perhaps, but so much more than all that lies behind. Wishing you a great journey.
This channel has proven that genuine souls are still exists , and the human connections and feelings are mutually intelligible
Thank you for your kind message, it really touches us. We are glad that we can share these videos with you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
The greatest lesson we can learn from a wise old man ❤️❤️
We are glad his message resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
It's the perfect day when you're still and alert. I find myself wondering where on earth is everyone going and it makes me sad. This in a wonderful video. very insiring.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, so glad his message spoke to you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
"Hello Michael, nice to see you." Imagine how different the world would be if we greeted ourselves that way every morning - and meant it ☺️❤️
Lovely thought. 💚
The universe sent me a series of gifts by leading me to you. I have watched three films one right after the other and felt so blessed. Thank you so much.
Wonderful that you came across our channel and that you enjoyed the video you watched so far. We hope to share many more with you. Sending you warmest of hugs. Justine and Michael. 💚
Such a great way to start my morning.
There’re so many lesson that resonate with me from this single video. Things I have been slowly learning as I walk through this life. And it’s just nice to hear someone much wiser talk about them.
1. We are one with nature. And there’s just something healing and calming about being with it. Find ways to connect with it.
2. Silence the noises and live this life mindfully, gently,sincerely, and authentically.
3. Feel and embrace all your emotions. This is how you’ll know that you’re truly alive
4. Don’t just believe anything and everything you’re told. Connect with your higher self. Connect with the rest of the planet and find out what more is out there for you. And then decide what is real for YOU!
Commit to God. Be strong and courageous and Believe. Have Faith.
Wow, so glad there was so much in this video for you. Thank you for sharing. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Wow! I feel like he's my kindred spirit. I always thought something was wrong with me because I felt other people's energy and wanted to make them happy. Then I would withdraw. Now I love being in my seventies, alone and connected to nature.....planting flowers, having bees walk all over my book when I'm reading outside and have a wonderment of life. Thank you for sharing. My heart rejoices.
Sounds wonderful. We are glad you have arrived at a place of peace and contentment. So happy too that Antony's message resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife Love you
I love this, not afraid of being dead, what frightens me is not living fully before I die. This is so important to me as well as I am aging with less time ahead of me than behind. It is the simple things, compassion, connection, and in the stillness, I see so much beauty. Thank you Antony for you thoughts are gifts.
You are welcome. So happy to read that his words resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Most disgusting feeling to be alone that talk all nonsense .. life to make real big family alot of sons be around you live care about each other the will care about you when being older
Such wisdom and gentleness in his soul. We could be friends in soul awareness. Thank you.

This man described my first experience of prayer in Alcoholics Anonymous. I prayed and found that stillness. I then went to Canterbury Cathedral a few weeks later and had such a lovely experience of my mind completely clearing time and time again whilst in prayer. It was a gift that saved my life ❤.
Thank you for sharing your experience, glad you found that stillness that time. Nice his message resonated with you so deeply. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
💛✌🏼
I think I've listened to this six times and have taken his words into my heart. He has learned to live such a full life. This is exactly how I feel, happy alone and anxious stepping out. Always feeling I need to find a way to fit in, to make a difference in my life. He has described the contentment with just being who you were created to be. Please thank him for sharing his story. Wish I could know more of his story.
know yourself kindly . . .
Thank you dear Jane, for opening your heart to all that Antony shared with us. Antony has quite a lot of content that he shares on their website - www.stoepzen.co.za/home.html.
He shares some recorded talks, and you can also read more details about some books which Antony has written. I hope that this helps. Sending you much love. Justine and Michael x
Thank you for asking, I had the same wish and will enjoy his website !

Thank you for those profound thoughts. When the pandemia started I put a hummingbird feeder outside my window... for months it was the only comfortable interaction I had. Three years later they are still part of my morning coffee...
So happy his message spoke to you so deeply. Your experience with the bird feeder is touching, so wonderful that the birds are still there with you every morning. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
So many beautiful wisdom truths he speaks. Thank you for this.

My God! It's almost as if I was watching myself in another body speaking those words. Every word he said resonates with me. I am not afraid of dying but I am afraid of living and not living my full potential in this life. Such a beautiful man and such a beautiful tender soul. Thank you so much for this beautiful video . As all of your videos are so special to me. I have shared your videos with so many people. They always bring such peace to me and so much to think about for my days ahead. I go back many times to many of your earlier videos and watch many of them over and over again. Each time I hear another message that I missed before. I love you guys. Thank you so much for the hard work you do. And thank you for the joy that your videos bring to me and the rest of the world. Please stay safe and healthy. 🙏🥰
What a lovely message Joe, thank you for sharing. So glad you could listen to Antony's words and they resonated with you so immensely. May our videos always carry you on your road ahead, thank you too for sharing them with others. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you Joe for sharing your words, I think you speak for so many of us…I listened to Anthony’s words at night before I went to sleep and again first thing when I woke in the morning and the message touches me deeply…
@@andymasse thank you so much Frank for your kind words. I love green Renaissance. I live alone on my little farm in the mountains of East Tennessee. I find so much peace and serenity listening to Green Renaissance. I have recently been through some pretty tough times with my partner of many years deciding to find somebody much younger. Oh well such is life anyway. I have survived lung cancer and several other medical issues. I am doing great now. At 73 years old and going on 30 I have so much hope and love to give to the world and share with others. Green Renaissance videos gives me so much love and peace to think about. And beautiful souls like you responding to my comment shows me there are many many more beautiful people left in this world. Thank you again Frank for your kind words.
I wanna spend a week with each person in these videos. Each one is so full of knowledge. Truly stellar human beings:)
Such beautiful and touching words. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
I love the way he speaks, his calmness and he seems to be so kind,there is so much light in this man!The way he lives reminds me of my grandparents,a simple life!
Glad you enjoyed listening to him, all that he shared about living peacefully. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
This has helped me make a decision I have been struggling with for more than fifteen years. I too have been searching outside myself and am now returning to find what’s inside
That is so wonderful that Antony's message was so helpful. All the best further, may you find wonderful things, new ways, etc. looking on the inside. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I first watched this video with Antony the moment Justine & Michael posted over a year ago… he and Margy give me constant reminders to be grateful of my solitary rural and often sad life-existing process… Antony’s words are uplifting every time I listen… I also like to read and appreciate every comment… thank you Justine & Michael from my heart for your time, effort, skills and wisdom❤❤
Your message touches us deeply and encourages us, thank you for writing to us. We are so thankful that this video and their life story mean so much to you. Nice to have you with us on our journey. Wishing you all the best for life's journey, for every new day. Sending much love, Justine and Michael. 💚

While quietly listening to this fellow’s every word, I’m in awe at how much of what he’s offering here really resonated with me ..what a beautiful human being he is ..and to read the comments shared by others (ie autism - me too, recent diagnosis) is helping me to get centered. I’m beyond grateful for this channel. What a gift it’s become to me. Much gratitude! - Tristan
You are so welcome. We are really glad that you a like the videos we share and that they help you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Another beautiful film guys. He embodies the Tao. It’s so easy to SAY these things but he LIVES them. Thank you for always creating films that share real wisdom. It’s being LIVED here, not discussed, or lecture on, or philosophised about.
Your words touch us greatly, thank you for your encouraging words. Glad Antony's message meant much to you. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
This man as a similar attitude to life and the living of it as I have . I have family and a few good friends and that is it , but I value my solitude. Its gold to me. As an empath I can feel the suffering and joy of the world . And I have compassion , great compassion. But, I cannot let it affect my personal well being . That's why I go for solitude.
Happy to read that his words resonated with you. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you, Antony, for your heartfelt words. You live through your heart, and that is beautiful. It matters because the energy of the love in your heart ripples out into the Universe, and it affects all of us in an inspiring way ❤ Thank you, GR, for another lovely film 🕊️💜🙏🏼
You are so welcome. So happy to read that Antony's message resonated with you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Such a beautiful man. I shall not forget him.
💚
yes, an awakened human being...❤
"...I have no objection to being scattered in the fields and being forgotten..."...I never understood the need not to be forgotten...
Glad you enjoyed his message, this particular sentence. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
I am moved to tears.Wish could say hello to him all the way from India
“How can I just allow this life to be mine in the deepest way, including that I didn’t get it right?” This film brought me to tears, touched a deep spot in my spirit. What frightens me is not living fully.
Wonderful that his message spoke to you so deeply, thank you for being open to the message he shared. May his words inspire and encourage you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Another magical story. It's easy to fall in love a little bit with everyone you interview.
Beautiful comment, thank you. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I WILL NOT FORGET YOU ANTHONY. . EVERY WORD you spoke, and how you shared them, are gifts of wisdom, compassion, humility, tenderness... Your presence IS palpable. Abundant blessing to you, and to the Green Team for your expressions of profound beauty and compassion., from a grateful heart 🙏🕯💝
Lovely message Philomena, thank you. We are so happy that you enjoyed listening to him. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
That was beautiful. This man has a beautiful soul and I see a lot of myself in him....as I get older. This life has been a mighty struggle and each day is a challenge to keep going. I dont fear death but fear not living fully as he spoke to. And I welcome the journey being over when that time comes.
We are so glad that his message resonated much with you. So glad that we could share his message with you. may his words give you strength and courage for every day. Sending you warmest of hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Well done! It's such a breath of fresh air when a person has come to a place of serenity. In such a fast paced society where relationships can be shallow and strained, being at peace with oneself and in touch with their surroundings is so inspiring.
Thank you, we are glad you found this video interesting, that you enjoyed his message. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚

Believing in God is the only way that makes sense of this life..
Thanks for sharing your views. We send you much love. Justine and Michael x
Yawn,🥱
Yes, How do people reflect on life without considering who or what created them in the first place? When I finally began to wonder about the Creator of it all was when I found the love and peace in it all.
There's no such thing as god.
God is not a thing.@@dpelpal
Absolutely beautiful! What a wonderful man you are Antony.
Thank you kindly Ann. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I love that this wonderful man expresses in words what most good people feel inside. It’s so refreshing to hear we are not alone with these similar thoughts and how comforting to hear it verbalized by another living soul.
It's wonderful that his words resonated so deeply with you. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I have done you a disservice in not calling attention to and commending the videographer. All of your videos have beautiful and enlightening cont, but so is the filming, the style of how it is approached and presented to us. It is absolutely gorgeous and I thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤
Wow, thanks for these kind and encouraging words Rebecca. It means a lot to us. It's good to have you with us on our journey. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you. After taking in every articulate word Antony spoke, your mesmerizing images and the perfect soundtrack for his message, I am still and quiet, more in acceptance of my humanity and of the whole of this beautiful and heartbreaking life. Such gifts you give, GR. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words Linda. So glad that also this video touched you deeply. May you be inspired to have still and quiet moments, find acceptance and peace with all that's going on around us. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I totally get every word that he spoke. Nearly every word he spoke resonates with me, maybe because we seem to have similar personalities, basic traits and view regarding the world. I'm so glad I finally find my tribe in most of the people that is being featured in this channel..
Such a touching and kind comment, thank Cecilia. We are glad you feel so 'at home' with these videos, the people that are featured. Sending you warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Another of my all-time favorites. I have already watched it several times and forwarded it to people I care about. It is a gift to them as much as your gift to me to bring this gentleman into my life. He is the kind of person I could sit down with and just take in his genuine heart and soul. Anthony has so many precious one-liners I can't list them all here. And, again, as always your videography and editing took the presentation to another level. I absolutely loved the shot of the cat walking across the top of the wall with the Zen Sky sign in the context of the shot and the feel of the message. I also took into the deepest place of my heart wisdom of not shutting out the dark things happening in the world because in so doing I become "brittle by trying to keep something out." Compassion and empathy is what keeps us more deeply loving and soft. Thanks, GR. My life is better for these videos.
Such a touching and beautiful message, thank you. We are glad this story meant so much to you. Thank you also for sharing our videos, we appreciate it. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I Love this man, He is so caring, Not at all self- suffishend.
Thank you for your kind words. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
What a wise man Antony is. a lovely insight into a wonderful life. Thank you Antony and Green Renaissance
Anthony Osler is his name.
We are glad you enjoyed his message, Anne. His name is Antony, you find the info in the wrote up below this video. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
He is one of the most sweetest, warming souls that our world needs! ❤️
So kind, thank you. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you, Sir Antony Osler for sharing your vision of life and helping me to embrace it!
Beautiful. We are so glad that we could share his message with you. Enjoy life, be inspired. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Michael’s understanding of Buddhism extends to his entire life- so profound and moving. He literally lives Buddhism
Touching words. Glad you enjoyed the video with Antony (Michael did the filming). Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
@@ReflectionsofLife Many thanks- I've corrected the name now but I was thinking that perhaps yours and Michael's efforts also personify Buddhist service
Thank you for another beautiful story. Solitude is beautiful, but so is getting involved in the collective. The South African biologist Dave Pepler speaks about the people of Rwanda, how they collectively got involved in their own suffering and that of others through awakened participation. Solitude invariably involves stepping into the world and reaching beyond the self. Listening with compassion, loving beyond the self, that is truly remarkable.
It's a pleasure, we are glad we could share this story with you. Thank you too for sharing your message. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Such wisdom from this beautiful human. So much in this video that resonate with me.....we can only find peace when you find it within yourself.
Glad you enjoyed his message Renee. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
its just imagined cries and suffering though meaning not happening in his real time, present moment.
him, living alone, in his immediate environment wheres the cry?
when he goes into the city, does he see people crying outside?
'the suffering of the world' is his own introjection.
or just a default state of a human when he is all alone.
but im not implying that that imagined suffering is null or inconsequential even though we could say it is an echo chamber, voices of others, if he finds meaning to such.
I really liked his statement of not being scared of being forgotten when he dies. That to me, says he is truly in touch with himself.
❤
Thank you for watching. Glad these words resonated with you so much. Warmest hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
I cannot be more thankful to these beautiful souls on camera and off camera spreafing joy and love, i literally have tears in my eyes rn, thank you so much 🙏❤️
