  • Ajahn Brahm talks about the fault-finding mind that looks at what is wrong with things. Ajahn explains how life doesn’t go wrong it just goes different and people are not 'wrong', but different. Ajahn tells the classic ancient Buddhist stories of The Anger-Eating Demon and the ‘The Two Arrows.’

    And his talks [ especially this one] really have helped me identify my fault-finding mind !
    Thank you ! Now i look forward to becoming a better son, brother, husband, colleague, and friend.

    Is it me or Ajahn Brahm' talks are getting even better and better every year? I like how he expands his stories the way he hasn't done before!

    Thanks heaps for this (I'm not Buddhist but really enjoy your videos).
    How you think about things is how I think about things. I have a major disability which leaves me unable to do most things myself but it doesn't at all make me sad and I am content with the disability as I cant see problems as being negative. eg I see my disability as a thing which has taught me a lot about gratitude as every day I have to be so grateful to all my support workers etc and the fact our Aussie gov provides those to me. I'm not going to base my happiness on situations in my life, people though expect me to be upset about things. I've never known how to explain this way of thinking about problems as a positive thing to others well.

    Seeing the "big picture" and embracing reality remind me of the Byron Katie turnarounds. Rejecting identity reminds me of when she says, "who would you be without that thought" and the Ekhart Tolle and Buddhist teaching that you should not attach to any identity.

    That email from beyond the grave is more likely just a service delivery glitch - sometimes I get notice of missed calls, emails, and txt msg on my phone deliver to me at a moment in time but was sent by someone who wrote or call a couple hours or days ago.

    "Anger-Eating Demon" is the same as what Byron Katie says: "When I resist what is, but I lose, but only 100% of the time".

    you see i am constantly being attacked by all these demons which are coming into the bodies of all my school friends and my brother, the demons are turning them all against me, the thing about it is, because of the mistakes i made in my past, i sometimes feel that those demons were good, because i deserved it, but what happened in the past is in the past and i have to clense my body from these demons and the way to do that is to research about my previous lives

    you see as i told you i was kidnapped and murdered in 1960, and from the pinpoint that i was ribbed in a taxi, at the age of 8, i started hearing voices i can't explain, like one voice was this bloke telling my brother to kidnap himself to keep me away from the young dudes and also there was another voice, which i know now as being the voice of my captor in 1960, saying trying to be a young dude, trying to be a young dude, I have you now buddy, but i didn't hear it back then

  • @brianallan1483
    @brianallan1483 11 лет назад

    I made a few mistakes, mainly because i didn't know what these voices actually meant, i even hear a few more of my friends lately, saying i want my man back, and in a wingy voice he says, no mate, you could've done that when you were young, and then he said, ok you can have my man, but i want my young dude back because he wants to keep his mojo to muck with his friends, but deep down it's just the demons
    getting deep into my thoughts, with the fear os being bashed up after the parents die

  • @mamamiabenjamia
    @mamamiabenjamia 5 лет назад

    i strongly disagree about there being no rapists or thieves. i would say a person who paints and sculpts is an artist. i know artists, especially musicians, and they are a specific sort of person i would call 'artist'. i've also known people who deal drugs, steal and abuse and they are a specific sort of person and you do have to deal with them in specific terms. they are what they are but it's important to recognize that.

    • @thisisbob1001
      @thisisbob1001 5 лет назад

      I agree. These particular things he talks about I find hard to agree with.

    and then when i felt a bit better, i started to try and fit in with the Canberra people, but my voices seemed to get much worst, hearing voices again from Steven Bradley, saying you are still getting teased mate, your not like us, anymore and also the voices were saying, when i tried to muck with the cool kids, the voice would say, don't muck with him kids, sure mate, and Steven Bradley disguised himself as Trapper and kept me tied up on my bed, stopping me from being young
