  • In his unique and masterly way Robert Thurman shares and reinterprets for our time Shakyamuni Buddha's vision of the universe as recorded in the Vimalakirti Sutra. Combining his deep understanding of Buddhist scripture with humor and palpable humanity Robert Thurman shows us the relevance of this ancient text to the world we live in, and urges us to see past our conditioning and the negative ideas we have about life and the world, and realize the bliss of our true nature.

    I Got You (I Feel Good)
    Song by James Brown
    Wow, I feel good
    I knew that I would now
    I feel good
    I knew that I would now
    So good, so good, I got you
    Wow, I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    So nice, so nice, I got you
    When I hold you in my arms
    I know that I can do no wrong
    And when I hold you in my arms
    My love won't do you no harm
    And I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    So nice, so nice, I got you
    When I hold you in my arms
    I know that I can't do no wrong
    And when I hold you in my arms
    My love can't do me no harm
    And I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    I feel nice
    Like sugar and spice
    So nice, so nice, well I got you
    Wow, I feel good
    I knew that I would now
    I feel good
    I knew that I would
    So good, so good, 'cause I got you
    So good, so good, 'cause I got you
    So good, so good, 'cause I got you

      In the eyes of the Buddha, the world is nothing but Samsara -- the cycle of repeated births and deaths. To Him, the beginning of the world and the end of the world is within this Samsara. Since elements and energies are relative and inter-dependent, it is meaningless to single out anything as the beginning. Whatever speculation we make regarding the origin of the world, there is no absolute truth in our notion.
      'Infinite is the sky, infinite is the number of beings,
      Infinite are the worlds in the vast universe,
      Infinite in wisdom the Buddha teaches these,
      Infinite are the virtues of Him who teaches these.' - (Sri Ramachandra)

    Want to see what he's talking about first hand? Let the truth come to you. Stop and look. Don't try and get anywhere. Don't have a motive. Don't strive for anything. Let yourself experience life. Don't think, experience. Experience everything no matter how much it hurts. Let life happen and step out of your own way. You will find that you have simply forgotten that you are everyone and everything expanding up and down and out through and beyond infinity.

    He's a Brahmavid, don't let him fool ya!
    I disagree however with one important insight. The matter of Dukkha.
    To my understanding, suffering is a permanent archetype in Existence-Consciousness in the course of expressing Itself through the relative Sat-Asat World (as Adi Sankara also defined it). However, our underlying/substrate pure or fully real Sathya Sthithi (State of Brahman), which is KhandAnanda (infinite bliss), is what renders Dukkha a superficial, yet eternally persistent namarupa or name-form. Without the dynamic of Dukkha, we would 1. become too complacent; 2. have nothing to challenge us; 3. be driven mad by too much perfection; and 4. become too rooted in sterile clarity and lose touch with the creative flow that emanates from bewilderment.
    So, we need the Maya of suffering also. It's our evolutionary engine.

    • @studentofspacetime
      @studentofspacetime 5 лет назад +2

      I think that this issue of the risk of complacency is addressed in the Dharma. There are these high level meditative absorption states that are blissful, yet impermanent. It is considered a danger to become enamoured with such states for the reason you say.
      Nevertheless, the point is that, after full enlightenment, you no longer need suffering to sustain beneficial activity. You see suffering everywhere and that's motivation enough.

  • @pasinduwickramanayake4289
    @pasinduwickramanayake4289 4 года назад +1

    that is not what "Buddha" is ! Buddha is a title to use for the one who achieved "NIRWANAYA" when there's nobody have and he's able to teach/explain to others how to achieve it. there's another phenomena; someone did achieved it when there's nobody have but can't explain it, he's called as "Pase Buddha" many pase-buddhas can exist at a time but only one buddha can exist at a time and while his teachings are surviving !
    when saying buddha is a state which becomes everything so he felt us, that goes against what Nirwanaya means, "Gothama Buddha" had gave his knowledge to us because he felt empathy for us and also it is his responsibility to do so when he's the Buddha !

  • @kahlread5537
    @kahlread5537 6 лет назад

    A lovely man and lovely concepts but one is at odds with other great philosophies from Ancient Egypt to Mesopotamia. Mankind was genetically modified to achieve a purpose. The cost was memory. Man (mn) means memory. Our energy keeps manifesting but who I call 'I' doesn't. We are spirits with Alzheimer's disease. This is the idea of being trapped in hell until released. To be released we must die with a Buddha nature; we must live and therefore be conscious in the Middle Path - live in the Now. Currently we think in duality; it is the product of over inflated imaginations, the product of our GM in the past. Reality is a simulation that operates on a trinary program. Only the centre values are immortal and cognisant. To live in the Now is to be centred between time's concepts of past and future. Nowness is the Buddha nature in consciousness.

      @mdbosley 5 лет назад

      The awake mind is not male and not female and it is not in transition between the two.
      Avoiding both maleness and femaleness, the transcendent mind is neither here nor there nor in between.
      Clinging to no personal conventions or categories, the transcendent mind goes beyond the person.
      If something transcends our ideas, it steps outside of them.
      Buddha was not a person in transition. Buddha was beyond the personal.
