3 treasures: 1. Consciousness, Kindness/compassion. Love ourselves first so that we can love others 2. Merciful. Judging and being judged is a horrible cycle 3. Forgiveness. Forgive ourselves first. Live and let live. You are the master of your own life
You seem like a very pure being and you are blessing to all because you are helping others live naturally, harmoniously. You are a sane man in an insane world and that is inspiring. Much love, and thank you!
As a Jewish born person, I learned... through Tao to forgive Hitler. Please let us all forgive the world around us that teaches so much of the opposite of what is inside all of us to naturally do. Become one with Tao.
Nice, ethical teachings right here. Have you ever learned Mussar (Mesillat Yesharim, etc) or read Pirkei Avot with commentary? If you're not opposed to Jewish teachings I think you'd really enjoy them as well
Wow. This is what it feels like to have a truly spiritual, eye-opening experience. I'm starting to cry, but I'm smiling at the same time. Everything makes so much sense now.
Yes 🙌 great video, but I don’t know if someone actually needs to hear this, you've got to stop saving all your money. Venture into investing some, if you really want financial stability.
@@Joseph-rx1do Lately I've been thinking of buying cryptocurrency or stocks for retirement, I've set asides $350k to invest but along the line, I usually get cold feet, maybe because I have no idea what I'm doing, please I could really use some guidelines.
@@rupert1438 Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should've known that by now, nothing beats experience and that's final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again
I have been working on this for a little while. Today I put it into practice and was able to put a big demon to rest( I hope, I am still buzzing from the experience). When the situation presented itself I simply followed the Tao. This explanation gave my mind the strength to follow the Tao and not hold back. I would like to thank Yun Xiang Tseng for this video. It has helped my life in ways I cannot put into words. ''The Way of the Tao is of itself so'' said Lao Tzu. He was right.
Thank you. I almost had tears in my eyes, these past few weeks I've like I'm on another level too my peers. I was healing my friends using some doaism techniques. After about an hour of realizing trigger points and easing muscle tension I began too feel emotionally and physically drained so I went home. When I get home, I was feeling week so I went outside. While I was outside, it was increasingly windy and I left the full force of the wind surge though my body, it felt like I was 50% replenish
I think competition between people is the biggest source of stress for. Jealous of what others have, and then being afraid of the horrible things that happened to others.
Dalip, you are absolutely right! Compassion is shown in diet, relatioship with other creatures on this planet as well as fellow human beings. Animals are so often forgotten, good thing you brought it up!
Love. Always. Love the Principles of Taoism. I wish people understood the Power of Love. It's so much stronger than the Power of Fear and Hate... but, peoples ruling Power conjured Hate and Fear in their lives and sometimes they are too blind and afraid to trust the Power of Love and live their life through Love. Changing one person at a time is better than no change. I love every soul on this planet, I believe in the Power of Self and sharing that encouraging Energy. Love each other!
Just have to point out, for a ture Taoist, the world is never chaotic, the job, mortgage, family is the nature order of the tao, part of the tao. Only when you don't understand it, you will find them to be trouble.
You people are over analyzing this, taoism predates christianity. Jesus was more like this man than any of the people arguing here, take what you need from this video and apply what you can to your life. Come from Love. It's simple.
rlrnilecroc That is not Yeshua's teaching. Read Gospel of Thomas, and learn differently, indeed get rid of ignorance. Yeshua taught the Tao. Buddha taught the Tao. Just look for it. Not what official churches do.
great videos, master. i have a suggestion with the audio of your videos. it seems that the audio is coming through only one side wgen using headphones. im not sure why but maybe you could find out why in your end. thanks
Very beautiful wisdom here. Be nice to yourself... be merciful. "Family First-ists" often exclude themselves and obey their lineage so much that they never learn their internal ability to find wisdom to be less critical of those outside your heritage.
Master, as I see it you blended the next three into one at 10:20 *to love, to have compassion, to forgive* Yet, the Dao-De-Jing narrates differently: 1] 慈 kindness/pity 2] 儉 thriftiness/simplicity 3] 不敢為天下先 not daring to put myself ahead of everybody Simply you talked just for the first (out of three), literally: "compassion, tenderness, love, mercy, kindness, gentleness, benevolence" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Treasures_%28Taoism%29 Regards
Hi! These are beautiful videos you make, and I appreciate them so much! However, can you fix the closed captioning to fit what you're saying? There may be users who are deaf and hard of hearing, and I hope you can make these fit for all :)
I hope I can give you a satisfying answer to that! The point is that every single person has their own path in life to follow, their own mistakes to make, and their own time they need to learn from it. And since everyone is responsible for their own actions, mistakes and learning processes... it is not our responsibility to interfere. But in stead to forgive them and show mercy and love, as we would like to be treated the same ;)
Im not certain but I think if we seek we are still on the journey. If we accept we are somewhere but if we dont grasp it we are then for the better still nowhere. This is a great message this man speaks of here; to do as you are externally to others, as you wish to be within.
All faiths hold these concepts dear, yet their leaders are unable to articulate them so succinctly as this. It’s up to the individual to practice these concepts to bring harmony to themselves, their community & the planet.
The few times that I felt like I was in the Universal Oneness God's presence maybe only 3. I do not talk about it to people because most would just laugh at me. It was like being in pure energy in outerspace with small lines of lightning sparks,here and their I did not see bodily forms or a form. I cannot explain it but their was thought transference going on, pure love, extremely humbling.
I feel the same. If you read Jesus's teachings, it's so much like what he explains. It's the church who distorts that message into dogma, for nothing but power.
I'm 12, raised in a family of Jews, and today I announce myself a Maoist. It feels weird, because because all of the stuff you said is just like what I've felt for like forever.
God bless. I was raised Christian myself, and I searched for the Truth and Chinese Philosophy. I was lead to meditation and it changed my life and I have seen many miracles. Remember the true teachings of Jesus The Christ was the universal brotherhood of love. He taught it to be a everyday Christ consciousness of love, not a religion. All true religious teachings come from the Universal God of All who is Love. Some just get mistranslated and corrupted over the course of 1000's of years.
Love your presentation of the Dao.Of course it is all ancient wisdom regurgitated to remind us of (The Way)The most important way of living,however calling your self a MASTER is a little arrogant which implies( master/ slave).Again I could be wrong and mean no disrespect to the profound messages you share . I listen to your videos daily and wondering when you're going to upload some new stuff. Blessings and love.
thanks for the help. i have learned a lot from this video about my self and the art of Taoism. i feel like i have been living this way, but due to social stress i have lost my way a little. now i can go on with more than one set of thinking and understanding. From 0-9 everyday all day, self propelled wisdom, and concurring myself before i can concurring myself before i can concur the world.
if you are referring to making sacrifices to gods, modern Taoism doesn't really worship the old Chinese pantheon, the old gods such as the jade emperor or guan yu, slowly faded and took a back seat to the more universal yin-yang principles, Taoism has always been more about understanding the natural and scientific laws at play in the balance of the universe than it has been a religion as we think of it in the western sense
In the tao te ching it says that while caught in desire one sees only the manifestations surrounding that desirable thing. Only by freeing ourselves from the desire can we realise the mystery. It goes on to say that although mysteries and manifestations are different they come from the same soarce. This soarce is called darkness. Darkness in darkness is the key to all understanding. Does this mean that in all things we should seek to see the mystery as the manifestation and vice versa?
I posted it to the conversation , anyways. a discussion can't be held with only one person so that makes you also involved even if you wanted them to stop you would be evenly guilty of being involved . Also you continued te conversation above by stating questions at the end of your comment.
And sure some people are making terrible mistakes in life, mostly because of ignorance of lack of wisdom and experience!! But the only way we can truly help them, is by showing them wisdom and hoping they are ready to accept that wisdom in to their life. As soon as we have desire to judge, and stop someone from following their path in life, we are sacrificing our own love, mercy and forgiveness, witch will cause stress and frustration to ourselves! I hope my answer can help you! Peace...
Ya, I do not astral travel, I have before, but its just a consciousness for me, sometimes I open my eyes and its like I am in space and do not see my physical body. With the 3rd eye open you can see ultra violet colors. So when I close my eyes I can see angels sometimes and when I first started little demons, would hit me with energy balls and give me nightmares, Some call them succubi they suck energy from you. Mainly from my conscious mind at the time that had to be emptied.
A priest, as generally conceived, leads the congregation in prayers, bestows blessings, and performs the sacrifice(s). Is there a sacrifice that the Taoist priest performs? Just curious. Even though I have a BA in religious studies, I am not quite sure of the functions of the Taoist priest.
His translation is similar to the book I have that Carl Jung helped with. With the white orb, you must concentrate it in the heart area with the circulating of the light which is a visual technique, I have done the affinity sign or figure 8 going from root chakra to crown. Sometimes I have seen sparks of light until thrown or transferred into what I would call the 8th realm. Done right its like a worm hole in science terms.
The Bible mentions two types of fear: The first type is beneficial and is to be encouraged. The second type is a detriment and is to be overcome. The first is awe at the power of God, His attributes and might. The second is your typical, human fear. Proverbs 1:7.
Daoism dose not discriminate yet I have been told that I can't learn from a teacher because I have no money and because I have a learning disability. When I started trying to learn daoism I started with books, video's and the internet but that did not work. Then I tried finding a local teacher there were none after that I tried finding a to go to a teach and could not because no buddy would help me raise money to do that. I have determined that daoism is not poor and learning disability friendly in the united state's. The lake of resocese that go beyond books, video's and the internet is horrible.
thanks for the web link but I am looking for a teacher student relation ship where I'm actually working with the teacher in person and waiting for a respons or getting half the content because something didn't load right. plus things like books, videos and websits kinda work for me but come across as two dimentnal and laking substance to the point of not understanding what I'm trying to learn.
i understand that I have to learn the true Tao myself but I still want a teacher to help me get there. My dream goal is to learn as much as I can about Taoism so I can eventually become a priest.
Greetings, I love the three principles. But what I am not in line with is forgiveness. In our African Wisdom we are prepared to forgive. But Don't you have to stop the wrong doer before you forgive him?? Do you forgive a serial killer in your village without first stopping him?? After you stopped him, Then you may forgive him because he might be on alcohol, or on drugs, or may be he hate himself..,etc. Should we not first stop the wrong doer?? Please enlighten me with your response. Thank yo
I didn't say all Christians were like that, I said most were, which is why its a fallacy. Reading the the Bible twice doesn't help you understand it. The Bible is a book that ties together surprisingly well for being 60 different books written by mostly different people. Reading it twice doesn't even mean you remember all of it either, its impossible unless you have a photographic memory.
Helped my uncle roof and insulate all weekend sorry for the delay. For me astral is like projecting outside oneself, you relax the mind and concentrate on a place like a childhood home, someplace in your familiar with is easiest and put your mind in a delta blank state and picture your self in that spot. I seek the Universal Mind or One in the Christ and its more like clouds or different spirits of light and its like your in the mind of God and not outside like physical.
I thought you were going to share the 3 treasures??? I got introduced to the Tao but I can't get in touch with those people and i need to hear the second treasure it is very important as i only heard it once.. please tell me how i can hear it because this is not the three treasures. thank you.
Are you talking about the initiation ceremony? Because that is a sect that appropriates Daoism and other religions but is not really Daoism. I say this because my wife and I attended such a holy house today where their version of the three treasures was the main gate on the bridge of your nose,the mantra of wu tai fo mi le, and the heavenly seal of placing your right thumb against your ring finger and left hand on pinky. Basically it was a lot of ritual and you are not supposed to tell people or speak of the three treasures outside of the ceremony, but the truth is that it's bs without substance. The true three treasures are compassion, moderation, and humility. Emphasis on ritual is mere superstition, especially in the i kuan tradition.
1. Lamentations 3:33-36. "Evil is not the opposite of peace. The Hebrew word translated "peace" is shâlôm, which has many meanings, mostly related to the well being of individuals. Râ‛âh, the Hebrew word translated "evil" in the KJV often refers to adversity/calamity - two forms of the word. Strong's H7451a most often refers to moral evil, whereas Strong's H7451b (the form used here) most often refers to calamity or distress. Obviously, "calamity" is a better antonym of "peace" than 'evil.'"
2. "The Bible mentions two specific types of fear. The first type is beneficial and is to be encouraged. The second type is a detriment and is to be overcome. The first type of fear is fear of the Lord. This type of fear does not necessarily mean to be afraid of something. Rather, it is a reverential awe of God; a reverence for His power and glory. Fear of the Lord brings with it many blessings and benefits. It is the beginning of wisdom and leads to good understanding (Psalm 111:10).
I like your interpretation. You are correct - Jesus was meant to be the pattern of perfection. Many Old Testament laws & necessities were made useless following Christ's resurrection because of Christ's sacrifice. I also have a question: What is the Secret of the Golden Flower? Sounds like something from ancient Chinese folklore (to be honest one of my favorite mythologies besides the Japanese's)
I came here for Taoism, but don't expect shroud comments about Christianity to go unnoticed. If you came across a video on ducks, and there were comments slurring atheism, I'm sure you'd object.
3 treasures:
1. Consciousness, Kindness/compassion. Love ourselves first so that we can love others

One love.
I am 66 and have followed Taoism since 1995. Love, Moderation and Not being first is what my teacher taught me

Greetings and thanks from an Irish Taoist
I appreciate the words of wisdom and the topsy-turby in the back ground.
Master, as I see it you blended the next three into one at 10:20
*to love, to have compassion, to forgive*
Yet, the Dao-De-Jing narrates differently:
1] 慈 kindness/pity
2] 儉 thriftiness/simplicity
3] 不敢為天下先 not daring to put myself ahead of everybody
Simply you talked just for the first (out of three), literally: "compassion, tenderness, love, mercy, kindness, gentleness, benevolence"

if you're the master of the dao, does that mean the universe has mastered you...?
I thought Master is a word that is often used in the Tao te Ching. It means something like: the person who lives in harmony with the Tao.
You can only be master of your self. Those who have attained this are Sifu, it is not a term of distinction compared to others.
very inspiring video , even has guns and roses lyrics imbedded in your philosophy :) orsome

Thank you for your valuable teachings very insightful =]
I was taught the three treasures were Xuan Guan, Kuo Jue and He Tong. Maybe they are meant to be the three hidden treasures.
So when you meditate, your Self is elevated into higher, heavenly planes of existence?
I thought the three treasures in Taoism were compassion (mercy), frugality, and not daring to be ahead of all under heaven (humilty).

Are the three treasures the same as the the three virtues (Te)?
thank you for sharing.
And sure some people are making terrible mistakes in life, mostly because of ignorance of lack of wisdom and experience!! But the only way we can truly help them, is by showing them wisdom and hoping they are ready to accept that wisdom in to their life.

After you stopped him, Then you may forgive him because he might be on alcohol, or on drugs, or may be he hate himself..,etc. Should we not first stop the wrong doer?? Please enlighten me with your response. Thank yo
Daoism was originally a philosophy, it later developed religious doctrine.
I didn't say all Christians were like that, I said most were, which is why its a fallacy. Reading the the Bible twice doesn't help you understand it. The Bible is a book that ties together surprisingly well for being 60 different books written by mostly different people. Reading it twice doesn't even mean you remember all of it either, its impossible unless you have a photographic memory.
Helped my uncle roof and insulate all weekend sorry for the delay. For me astral is like projecting outside oneself, you relax the mind and concentrate on a place like a childhood home, someplace in your familiar with is easiest and put your mind in a delta blank state and picture your self in that spot. I seek the Universal Mind or One in the Christ and its more like clouds or different spirits of light and its like your in the mind of God and not outside like physical.
I thought you were going to share the 3 treasures???
I got introduced to the Tao but I can't get in touch with those people and i need to hear the second treasure it is very important as i only heard it once.. please tell me how i can hear it because this is not the three treasures. thank you.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Treasures_(Taoism)
Are you talking about the initiation ceremony? Because that is a sect that appropriates Daoism and other religions but is not really Daoism. I say this because my wife and I attended such a holy house today where their version of the three treasures was the main gate on the bridge of your nose,the mantra of wu tai fo mi le, and the heavenly seal of placing your right thumb against your ring finger and left hand on pinky.
Basically it was a lot of ritual and you are not supposed to tell people or speak of the three treasures outside of the ceremony, but the truth is that it's bs without substance. The true three treasures are compassion, moderation, and humility. Emphasis on ritual is mere superstition, especially in the i kuan tradition.
1. Lamentations 3:33-36. "Evil is not the opposite of peace. The Hebrew word translated "peace" is shâlôm, which has many meanings, mostly related to the well being of individuals. Râ‛âh, the Hebrew word translated "evil" in the KJV often refers to adversity/calamity - two forms of the word. Strong's H7451a most often refers to moral evil, whereas Strong's H7451b (the form used here) most often refers to calamity or distress. Obviously, "calamity" is a better antonym of "peace" than 'evil.'"
truth-Thank you very much
You don't have to be Christian; if Daoism makes more sense to you, then convert. God doesn't care. He just Loves.
2. "The Bible mentions two specific types of fear. The first type is beneficial and is to be encouraged. The second type is a detriment and is to be overcome. The first type of fear is fear of the Lord. This type of fear does not necessarily mean to be afraid of something. Rather, it is a reverential awe of God; a reverence for His power and glory.
Fear of the Lord brings with it many blessings and benefits. It is the beginning of wisdom and leads to good understanding (Psalm 111:10).
love this
I like your interpretation. You are correct - Jesus was meant to be the pattern of perfection. Many Old Testament laws & necessities were made useless following Christ's resurrection because of Christ's sacrifice.
I also have a question: What is the Secret of the Golden Flower? Sounds like something from ancient Chinese folklore (to be honest one of my favorite mythologies besides the Japanese's)
Taoism is a beautiful religion, even if you don't follow it.
So if it's not astral projection, then what do you call it?
I came here for Taoism, but don't expect shroud comments about Christianity to go unnoticed. If you came across a video on ducks, and there were comments slurring atheism, I'm sure you'd object.
Bless you.
