Thank you for this enlightening explanation of the Noble Eightfold Path. It beautifully captures the essence of the Buddha's teachings and their practical application in our daily lives.
I have come across individuals that have claimed to be awakened... Without the Dharma. I was instantly surprised because only one that I know of has actually attained awakening... We must always use critical thinking when confronted with delusions. I have often found that when money gets involved... the line between spirituality and faith get blurred. Is it a business? Why must we pay to attend a Buddhist Temple? Or pay for retreats? Without choice... There will always be those that are willing to take advantage of those that don't know any better. I believe you shouldn't have to pay for something that comes from your heart. If what the Buddha says is true one needs to only find peace, happiness, and bliss inside your self. Maybe there will be another way, where I live where donations are accepted but are not forced... I have yet to attend a Buddhist Temple due to this very reason. Lay people should not be turned away due to a financial situation. But I also understand that bills need to be paid. It's odd, here in Canada the Catholic Church doesn't pay taxes and you can enter for free. The Buddhist Temple where I live only accepts membership (where you pay a minimum to enter, like being in a special group where you need a VIP invitation... not open to all..). I hope one day, I can attend and eventually become a master. ❤1:56
All is one, One is all. Small is big. Big is small. A micro chip is the billion of books. Billion of books is in a small micro chip. A second can be expanded into infinite time. Infinite time can be reversed into a second. Mt Sumeru (black hole) can be smal like a mustard seed. A mustard seed can contains the Mt. Sumeru. Infinite virtue and infinite wisdom are in Amituofo. Amituofo is infinite virtues and infinite wisdom. Chant Amituofo, Infinite Buddhas in all ten directions will be chanting along with you. One Buddha appears, Infinite Buddhas simultaneously appear. *layman's explanation* Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the horizon you see sun rising, mountains, forest etc... snap a photo, everything is capture inside one picture. Just one photo, you have everything. Chant Amituofo is truly inconceivable. Everything you seek or need is in the one word Amituofo. After this clear explanation, do you still have doubts in the one word Amituofo? 🙏🙏🙏Amitabha Buddha
It's about the moment. And the fact you and God is the only people who can end and prevent Gods suffering and your God when he can will end your suffering and hopefully you choose God's law for you so God dont A moment and infinity moments of absence of a quality then prevention and Growth of Fruit of holy Spirit suffering. Equanimity right extatic and right bliss which is the Start of Joy.
Let me guess, you have a Hindu (Vedic) background, right? Why do I say this? Your assertion that only “you and god can end and prevent gods suffering” stray far off from the teachings of the Buddha. In understanding the actual teachings of the Buddha we must be vigilant in our efforts to not bring in our own fantasies and believing them to be the words of the Buddha. Why is this important? Already in the first section of the Noble Eightfold Path did the Buddha stress the importance of the Rightful View. He did this because all other practices are based on the right view. If the views and intentions are off the mark all other practices will not lead to liberation, no matter how much they are being practiced, since they have the wrong aim. The whole point with the teachings of the Buddha is that we are in our full capacity to form our own future and eventually liberation from all sufferings. No god is involved in that process or outcome, according to the Buddha. That’s why our own choices are so potent and powerful. All powers are in our own hands!

Untastefulness (Appanihita) is the best mouth of liberation, and it is a result of disappointment (Dukka) about nature.
Realizing zero-ness from no-meaning, no-identify from unliking/equanimity, or no-tastefulness from pain is the end goal.🙏
Just be dispassionate to all and enlightenment is guarantee
@@ChillAndPeaceful, Yes. Listening to mindfulness (Satipatthana) meditations helps to reduce the idea of self and clinging.
Surprise this life I want nothing. Tqvm
