Doug is my favorit teacher
Equanimity meditations (wishing well to a self, friend, aquaintance, and unfriendly) are often used in Recovery Dharma. They can help people turn around ourward anger and dissolve what makes us separate.
Self-kindness can be new to people as well. Allowing oneself imperfection, impermanence, and then reflecting outward. Also dissolving inward anger and what makes us separate.
Doug was right it feels like forced motions. But once I did it, I knew the unwinding nature of these practices; over time there was less dislike, and less difficulties as a consequence of dislike.
my 2 favorite youtube buddhists!
Thanks for this :).
You are welcome 🙏🙏🙏
About the Buddha's reaction to teachings that were current in his own day, an emulation of the Buddha perhaps includes some responsiveness to ideas that are floating about in our times. Such ideas can include how Buddhism is taught or interpreted (as well as how other religious/philosophical/contemplative practices are understood). Not suggesting that we all become contrarians, but that we allow ourselves degrees of freedom that mirror what our particular lives and experiences are telling us -- that the Buddha's own inquisitiveness is a model for such responses. Wonderful, thought-provoking talk. Many thanks to you both.
"that the Buddha's own inquisitiveness is a model..." 🙏🙏🙏
That was a short 44 minutes, thank you both!
Auspicious start to the new series! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you, both ! Wonderful talk. Two teachers that successfully compliment each other 😊
🙏🙏🙏
I’m on my solo retreat but I had to watch during my break! Thanks so much!
Hope you enjoyed it!
I’m a Zen Master detector and my alarms and whistles keep going off every time I see you Jason :)
Don't attach to anything that appears in your mind :)
@@JasonQuinnZen Liar, that’s not possible
@@playertherapper
It's possible when One practices "Non-thinking" ( aka thinking & yet not thinking ie "right thinking" - Renowned Tang dynasty Zen Buddhist Grandmaster *Hui Hai* - refers)
@@siewkonsum7291 Yes, but that is not done by One or purposefully contrived in any way. That is a result of natural growth beyond the individuals control, so an individual can grow, but and individual doesn’t decide to grow.
The wise people say,
_"All religions are concepts but not all concepts are religions._
_If no one has ever invented religions, no one is needed to deny it."_ 😊
There are no answers to 'meta-physical' or speculative questions ( eg. Is there a self or a non self?, Why the sun rises from the East?, etc ) because of the limitations of words or language to answer them.
The Buddha always keeps silent when being asked those questions. Being silent, and silence is the answer to those questions.
However there are 'answers' to those questions by the Zen method ( a skillful means of) by 'direct pointing' ( to the seekers' Mind to trigger a sudden wake-up!! 🤯💥 in themselves) as practiced by (awakened) Zen Buddhist Masters.😊🙏🙇♂️🌷
Thank you sensei
