Excellent sharing on Buddha teachings & practical guidelines to practice & apply into daily life : mindfulness, meditation kindness, compassion, simplicity, smile, letting go, equanimity, truth, goodwill, beauty 🧘♀️ ❤ Peace comes from within. Do not seek without. Buddha
Thank you for your kind words and the question. The Bardo Thodol, or Tibetan Book of the Dead, provides a detailed map of the mind's journey after death. It's a guide through the transitional states between lives, showing how our thoughts and past actions create our experiences in those realms. Whether taken literally or as a symbolic representation of the mind's potential, the key insight is this: understanding our mind now, in this life, is the best preparation for whatever experiences may follow. It emphasizes mindfulness, letting go of attachments, and recognizing the true nature of awareness-both in life and beyond. Ultimately, it encourages us to live each moment with greater presence and wisdom.
I like to liken this phenomenon with this metaphor. Think of the Apple tree, representing the universe. The apples are human beings. Let’s pick 2 apples and name them John and Paul. John and Paul are both curious about the whole cosmic existence so they each start on different paths to seek answers. John would start observing everything tangible around him. After times, he has come to understand the whole process of an Apple seed growing into a tree, how water and minerals transport from the root for photosynthesis to take place at the leaves to nurture the tree grow. Tree produces apples and the cycle repeats. He concludes his finding and presents it to Paul. Paul looks at John’s work contemplating then decided he is not satisfied with this kind of knowledge. He chooses his own path in search for the final truth. He would go down in the ground and grow himself into a tree. Paul himself has become one with the process he is investigating. My conclusion is that knowledge obtained by observation only satisfies us at this three dimensional world level. A deeper understanding about the universe and everything within requires courage and determination. Paul has chosen a quiet, lonely path like the Buddha did. Think of our physical bodies and brain waves that are made up by all the stuffs out there in this cosmo. Enlightenment is simply when we become one again with this vast cosmic body!
…….And why,monks,have l declared these truths?they are indeed useful,are essential to the life of purity, they lead to disgust,to dispassionate, to cessation, to tranquility, to full understanding, to enlightenment, to Nibbana. That is why,monks, they are declared by me. Thus spoke the Buddha
Buddhism does not recognize a creator of humans or the universe. The Buddha taught that all things arise from natural causes and conditions. The Buddha himself was a human who attained enlightenment through his own efforts.
@BuddhismPodcast I do not have problem with other things of your good deeds but you missed the main point. There is a creator who has created Buddah and every natural things. The name of the creator of earth and heaven and all that exists is Allah.
Exactly! Nibbana isn’t a place but a state of letting go. When all clinging to the five aggregates ends, existence and suffering cease, bringing true freedom.

Thank you for quoting the Buddha's words. They are a beautiful reminder of the path to liberation. 🙏
Who is the creater of human beings and the universe accrding Budah. Who created Budah
Buddhism does not recognize a creator of humans or the universe. The Buddha taught that all things arise from natural causes and conditions. The Buddha himself was a human who attained enlightenment through his own efforts.

Vatuanaya Buddhism or Tibetan Buddhism. Best
Nibbana is not place. In heaven they cling on to all FIVE aggregates. Once you relinquish all clinging there is no existence. Hence no suffering.
Exactly! Nibbana isn’t a place but a state of letting go. When all clinging to the five aggregates ends, existence and suffering cease, bringing true freedom.
