For many years I suffered from depression and the only thing that kept me was my Irish sence of humour. Thanks AB for your beautiful talks you have helped me find my very joyful path. Many blessings.
Almost 3 Years listening to your talks Ajahn Brahm from Guatemala Central America I love your teachings I have learned so much from you knowlegde thank you.
I was so down today with thoughts about my breakup and stress from work bothering me for the whole week. Thats to Ajahn Brahm, I had a good laugh and felt good about myself.

There are so many great insights! The wake-up call on self-acceptance is impactful. I do not need to be perfect before loving myself. That certainly release a lot of stress and self-imposed limitation. I like the fact that I am a work-in-progress and will always be 'non-perfect'. Another one is looking at the éxpert' as role-model. Monks and nuns need so litte, yet they are so much happier. I have much more than them, yet there are more I need! And I am still not happy. Great wake up call. Thank
Bless you. May you be well and happy. Thanks for letting us know despite having a false view about Buddhism and being a good Christian visiting a video talking about Buddhism.
@Ashitanoyuki I disagree with you about a few things here, but the main one is your description of the goal of schools. In my opinion the goal of a school is to teach people how to learn. Another is the pursuit of personal ambitions, for many people their ambition is to help other people for example a friend of mine is a lawyer that fights against social injustice. Her goals would not have been met without a high level of education.

@nealezumm What? No, not like full time never thinking about anything else. Just whenever she came up or when I thought about her, which happened now and then. I was bitter and angry, not batshit insane. XD
not quite. Schools do not teach knowledge; most schools compel bits of information, and in the course destroy the possiblity of (real) knowledge ... and cause all manner of suffering and resistance ... and yes, it's the polar opposite of wisdom ....
@JohnnyFoster Indeed. =) Every gem can't be a diamond, but perhaps he shouldn't be afraid to reiterate a lecture multiple times when he has a hard time thinking up a new talk. Nevertheless, I thought this talk held it's own unique wisdom. =) I feel like it finally hinted me a way to get past my ex-fiancee, so maybe I'm biased...
According to the stats thing, everybody who watches these videos is between 45 and 64. I'm 20. Am I the youngest frequent viewer here?! That makes me feel mature XD
How many more people with whining tone will you continue to run into in life? Can you then change everyone of them, or if you can turn away from every single one of them? You should know your answer, so if you no longer want to feel agitated by this sort of tone, then start now and try to get past it =)
