  • Is it really possible to find happiness in our busy modern lives? Ajahn Brahm talks about the path to happiness in the context of our modern lives.
    For those abused and wronged is happiness actually possible? Attachment to painful emotions, such as grief, anger, bitterness, the notion of a wounded self with a distinct identity: all these can become a perpetual prison...

    I was in a fighting mood before i watched this, again and again the thought of smashing skulls into the ground came back to me and I relished it. Now I have let go of that rage entirely, and feel lighter, freer, happier.

    I'd love to hear how Ajahn Brahm finished this talk and tied the whole thing together with what he was saying at the end about prisoners having been abused themselves as children. What an amazing talk this was! Thank you so much for posting!

    Thanks for this inspiring talk, watched it a couple of times now. I think the governments around the world that apply the death penalty should watch this and think again.

    I always believed that there should be courses in school of meditation and peace, for the child to how to act and how to control the mind and find the self. We would be creating valueble members of a community. Everything is connected, if the individual isn't happy the family isn't happy if the family isn't happy the society isn't happy and thus the world becomes in balanced out of indiviual unhappyness. We must learn this practice of peace and happyness.

    I think there is a lot of wisdom in this talk. I am skeptical about some of the metaphysical doctrines of Buddhism that Ajahn Brahm teaches, but otherwise think he is insightful and compassionate and the world would be a better place if more people adopted his attitudes

    An “eye for an eye” syndrome. Revenge! Why is it so hard to free ourselves from this act.

    The two killings AB is referring to was the killing of Silje Raedergard on 15th October 1994 ... and the February 12, 1993 abduction of James Bulgar from outside a butcher's shop.

    They are talking about Matthieu Ricard. I want to see Ajahn Brahm and Mattieu Ricard giving a talk together that would be nice :-)

    I'm guessing there was a technical glitch with the video?
    :-(
    If it's available, I'd love to hear the end of the talk!

    Compassion and understanding seem to be lacking seem to be lacking in this guy. Lacking for the Western lack of knowledge that we have. I think a real master like the Dalai Lama would have a softer and kinder approach.
