    I'm defiantly happier because of all the choices of tea with their thought provoking names. . They make great gifts too. Healthy and not addictive. All different colours of packaging. The smells. Great way to drink water- life's force.

    why does it take a man in a black jacket to get my attention and tell me to make a cup of tea? who does he think he is. ok i listened . and this is what i did ... 3 cups of tea.. and now i am sharing, looking deeper and yes having listened .. SMILING. THANK YOU Mr holden for having the courage to expose the English in a way i have gained from and will feel content every time tea can trigger your ted talk that seemed to have been about my issus.
    so THANK YOU Mr holden

    Robert is SO funny! I love his stories about erasers and online shopping, among many :-) His messages are spot on and point me to a place of greater love and joy. "What is it like to be me when I don’t want anything?" What a great question! Thank you for doing the work on yourself so that you can bring hope and joy to others. Blessings back atcha

    "Rest from wanting" - awesome topic for tea time contemplation! I love the teas display. It is fun though to try all the different kinds of teas and I do have a pantry shelf full of them. I don't feel any "wanting" though because the variety of teas helps me to feel abundant. However, the idea of contemplating "who am I without wanting" is very profound and a very good meditation subject. Thank you Robert! Namaste 🙏

    Robert you are truly inspiration in action. Thank you for sharing your gift so beautifully in this world. This TEDx is as brilliant as the talk I saw you give at I Can Do It in Toronto, when you wore a heart on your t-shirt and won all of ours. Thank you for holding up the mirror high, so we can all see the truth. Much love and best wishes for even more successes.

    HAHAHA funny stuff but some of the coloured teas he mentioned are the traditionally available teas from China. White Teas have their classifications and green teas have their different varieties.

    Good talk but the audience seem to think it's a comedian. When you are from the North, we leave the H off words that begin with H automatically by the way. This talk could have been done by any Buddhist teacher .
