Thank you lovely teacher. Your meditations saved my life. I have a disorder that makes me hyper and your meditations restored my sanity. I feel i can slow down. Thank you. Thank you. At last a path that is kind....thank goodness you exist. You save
I managed to teach a stepson with Schizophrenia how to meditate. I believe people with disorders can meditate even better. Your son is lucky to have you
So true. My step sons learned how to meditate by watching me. I would bond with them by doing Yoga together and they loved the challenges of the challenging poses. I remember one lovely evening after doing Yoga me and one of my son's sat in meditation pose for a while...Suddenly he said during meditation in the most calm tone...I love this evening. I was so happy. I also noticed they did not start smoking or doing drugs... i feel so glad that these lovely teachings are the best way to raise healthy young Men... Thank you.
Thank you Ajahn Brahm. You have become the cure to my insomnia. I find peace in listening to your speech, I hope I can meet and thank you in person ... Sadhu x3 !
Always great teaching, I am a Christian, but God put Ajahn Brahm's talk on my radar, when I was recovering from drug addiction. Long story short, his way of teaching brought me a peace Christian doctrine couldn't. So, I say God Bless you Ajahn Brahm, and BSWA! Turtle Sage out!!
I'm in recovery too and I do Refuge Recovery. If you like Buddhist stuff, check it out. It's working for me. Plenty of zoom meetings. Hope to see you there, friend, and keep going strong!
I always say to myself, "Life is mistake and correction." And imagine endless loops of mistakes and corrections. And I feel ok with that, accept it, and enjoy it.
This is so timely. Thank you for addressing this pattern many of us, including myself, have. You are such a joy to hear and see. Sometimes I smile to myself because I feel you are my teacher whom i shall never meet in this life and you are the same age as my youngest sister. I love greatly and I accept we are different flowers from the same parental garden. I am so blessed to see myself as a lay Buddhist in the Theravada tradition. Sadhu. Sadhu. Sadhu. 🙏🙏🙏
Oh how I giggled when the mic was finally fitted .... :) On thwarted travel - when the Icelandic volcano erupted back in 2010 and many European Airports were forced to close due to the massive smoke plume that was covering large swathes of Northern Europe, I hopped on a train from Duesseldorf to Brussels and then grabbed the next Eurostar back to London. European trains being what they are, I pretty much got back in around the same journey time as it would have taken to fly and enjoyed a glass of wine and a snack while we travelled smoothly along. However, one fellow traveller in the Eurostar spent the entire European leg of the journey screaming indignantly at someone at the British Airways desk for cancelling his flight. "Do you know how many flights our company books..?! This is outrageous..." etc etc.. The humour was not lost of those of us sitting quietly heading home. He was in the corridor and each time the sliding door opened, we could hear snippets of the continuing torrent of abuse he was doling out. And then, we entered the tunnel, the phone signal was gone, and all was well... he could scream no more, but had to come back through the carriage to get to his seat while everyone stared at him in amused disbelief.
I feel so good and relaxed every time I listen to your damma sermon . I learn so much about the reality of our lives by listening to you! Thank you for , awakening our senses to experience it.
Anyone recommend a great video of Ajahn discussing clear mindedness and how to not let things bother you? I struggle with letting people agitate me easily.
Thank you for posting again Ajahn Brahm. I hope to achieve the excellence in service that you emulate as well, in truth though I may have already done so, because Ive given the world this, watch for more Nobels from Stanford.
@@fontofgod Thank you. I'm a simple grandma and for me it's very new. I'm so happy, that I have found the channel of the Buddhist Center and I can listen and learn.
Your so wise, Love your content, I put your videos on whenever im about to go into a negative thought spin and i feel much more gratitude and hopefulness after, Thank you 🙏
As below, me too :) You are like a slightly younger brother and two very good parents to me, although we have never met and probably never will. So grateful. Sadhu. Sadhu. Sadhu.
Hello Ahjahn, thank you for this moment. For me it was a wonderful mix of giddiness and wisdom that struck me more than I was willing to allow(does that make any sense?). Especialy; the kindness part to yourself the past and everything. Very "simple" yet overlooked by me on many(most) occasions. What still puzzles me is: so; not beeing perfect is actually real and therefore perfect...? Also; you say at the end that the mind itself has to be cast aside to trancend. Yet isn't the mind, not the brain/self-mind, the trancended state? FYI: I am sure I am not sure that I understand what you just taught me. But somewhere my "mind" tells me that the certainty of some of it is exactly what is wrong with .. everything I am trying to comprehend. Except the kindness part. Also, there's a lot of I's in my question.. that makes me question myself.. I am very impressed by this video, apologies if that was not intended =)
Could you please give me some advice of what I ask now how can we keep our mind in one place without letting it control me please give some advice…. Hope to hear from soon…..
37:50 secs, But Sir Ajahn Brahm, there is a way to know the symmetry breaking before a kosmos is made, as well as all the wheres and whens, it has to do with how one deals with the many flavors of complexity, or apprent ordered chaos, or even chaos. there is a pattern that underlies it all, Mr brahm, please I would like to give you my mind module concerning this issue. Yes the first proto planets and the organusm to evolve on them is already known, and yes there are other kosmoses. Thank you for posting, hopefully someday I can come to visit you, I only have around 10-40$ a month. I currently have a roomate who is looking at what Ive written, he knows as well now. In truth the whole peninsula, as well as probably the world now knows this, its how the highest works, or an aspect of the highest, when I say the highest I am referring to infinite accuracy and precision, like taking a dice a handfull and telling all the rolls before you do it, or cards, book word matching to thought etc. Its very fun, but It has been horribly and still is horribly mishandled.
Crux of the talk - 37:00 43:00 - the emperor's three questions (the only time is now, the most important person right In front of you or yourself, the most important thing is to care, how you relate to others and to yourself) Care for this moment (the present moment, and what you are experiencing right now) in meditation. Caring for the moment - energy starts to increase, the five hindrances weakens. LET IT BE - compassion and kindness. The moment grows, blossoms and becomes an amazing experience. It stays in it because you are enjoying it. Stops this mind from making up stories - the truth is more blissful, of stillness and peace. Make peace, be kind, be gentle - stops the five hindrances. The five hindrances perverts the cognitive process.
In truth it was for mainly the Buddhas , Bodhisattvas, you know these types, who actively capture and grow the good and wholesome in this kosmos, but what happened was everybody let their greed come out, if you see my book face page. Youll find out what they did.
Thank you for this meditation 🙏🏻. At 1:44:50 Ajahn mentions a place in India where Buddha meditated. Can we list the name of the place? I couldn’t quite interpret the name of the cave. Many thanks 🙏🏻
@@y9w1 emptiness is not a thing, an object. It's not the objects that we see that are emptiness, it's that which is seeing that is emptiness... Its a common mistake that even bald men in bed linen miss.
Love to see Ajhan Brahm. But why on earth should it be a bad meditation, when lust comes up?. Sorry, Ajhan, don't think the Buddha meant it this way. What a great oportunity instead...
Ajahn Brahm used to be a lot better. He should not talk about politics or things he did not know for sure or controversial subjects. I like AB 5 or 10 years ago.
Thanks for teaching the Dhamma Ajahn Brahm.
Love you and the way you teach 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Dear Ajahn Brahm, I just want to let you know how much I appreciate you. Thank you soooo much for sharing your wisdom! : )
My sentiments exactly!!!

Denounce all doctrine. Wherever their is separation, there is conflict.

Okay I’ll be here at all

I have not seen Ajahn Brahm for maybe 3 years, and his jokes have not changed... love it... Namaste
I am very glad to see Ajahn Brahm in such good cheerfull and healthy 'condition'

Always a joy to listen to my favorite monk! (also the only monk i know)
Dear ajahn brahm, thankyou for your amazing dharma wisdom coupled with your hilarious way of getting the point of your teachings.

Thank you Ajahn Brahm 🙏🙏🙏
Love AB ! He is truly a helpful being.
all the time is the best
Thank you Ajahn Brahm. Your words are inspiring. I see life for what it really is. Imperfect.
Life is not only imperfect, it is so tough. Maybe it is karma. Why are there so much inexplainable phenomenon?
This hit home so much I was genuinely in tears 30min in. Thank you for this, this was life changing for me.

I love practicing the Buddha's reaching. Thank you Venerable for sharing this!

Hey, where are you from?
Worth listening to the end especially for the last Joke.!!!
am i a bad student? i miss my mum.
Who can say he is not as confused as the rest of us . . . .
That's why we have to practice, to see for ourselves.
1:25 i think you should breathe at a minimum of 1 every 5 mins but then only an hour tops.
What if your family lies, steals, cheats and has laziness and entitlement. Confused with small family. I can only help so much.
A family is made up of individuals.
dont consume violence plz
