I have been watching your videos over and over for some time now learning and trying to implement the Buddhas teachings in my life because of your great way of explaining. my wife told me the other day how much I have changed and how happier I seem. a friend told me I seemed so peaceful and at ease. I have never been as happy as I feel at this point in my life. Thank You Mindah. Thank you so much. You are a great and wise teacher.
Very educative. Please allow me to interrupt. I feel Buddhists should know this. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.
You’ll never meet me but I hope you read this. I’m just a dad of three daughters who is striving to be a good human. I just want to thank you for the videos you she produced. I’ve taken your videos to heart and have seen and felt a very positive change to my life and my impact to others around me. Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments and videos. In case you ever wonder, you’ve made a difference in my life and my community. Thank you.
I've listened to the Four Noble Truths Video and now this one. Excellent. So clear and practical. I chant and mediate. It has changed my life. I believe in a Karma to a certain extent meaning I do not believe in reincarnation. I am a Christian as strange as that may sound. Incorporating Buddhism into my Christian practice has enhanced my spirituality in ways I never imagined. Thank you for this teaching. I look forward for hearing more.
Hello Arica, Thanks for sharing. I'm an American and a Christian who has lived and taught in Thailand for the past 3 years. It is good to know that with Christianity spreading to Europe and the New World that Buddhism took hold in the east where it could serve as a moral compass for people's lives. And the teachings are similar to the Ten Commandments and Christ commandment to love others as oneself. It makes sense and I can see how you can utilize facets of Buddhism in your daily life. I appreciate your comment very much

I have tried meditating a few times in my life. Did not understand what may become of it and gave it up rather easily. I am new to studying Buddhism. I sure like the guide lines that have been simplified and written down. I am attracted to it. I have a long way to go as I am one of the least disciplined persons on earth. "practice" that is a new concept to me as I have learned to be a couch potato. I really like this extended look at the 8 fold path. I typed something up for myself to have as a Handy tool. I needed this extended version. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I look forward to exploring more of your videos.
My dear Mindah, Thank You so much for your words and videos. I believe I've found answers to question I've had most of my life. We are raised to believe what other people say. Not ever having our own opinions just others thoughts and beliefs. Everything we know we have found from outside ourselves, never from with in. At 73 yrs old I have finally found the path to walk to Mukti Blessings light and love to you In lac etch 😊🙏❤️

Thank you for teaching Lord Buddha's love of our family. You are a wonderful example of life and the love of that life. Thank you my Sister for helping our Brother's and Sister's to understand the reality of companion and hope. Thank you so much to reiterate looking for reality, mindfulness, understanding life.
Thanks Tracy. Compassion is a part of Buddhism that resonates with me a lot. If people allow Buddhism to remain purely theoretical and don't let it touch their hearts, then they're missing one of the most beautiful aspects of it. :)

Excellent simple, clean and calming teaching embodying the teachings of Buddha....One definitely feels her right intention! Thank You. Thank You Mindha for your pure sincerity and peacefulness in clearly communicate the marvelous 8 fold path of the of the Most Blessed Gautama Buddha. You not only expound but embody the deep peace that the Buddhas teaching can bring. I have found that the 8 fold path is a perfect blue print to solve any problem or situation. It is simple and a great reminder and corrector of the anxious and disturbed minds and lives. Jai Meher Baba!

"It's said that 'Our mind's true nature is one of love, peace, and wishing others happiness.' (5:48) This line struck a chord in me because it shows one of the main distinctions between Western and Eastern thought. In Western religion Nature is corrupt, something to be corrected. In Eastern religion, Nature is divine, and bringing oneself back into accord with it is the goal, practice to end "dis-ease." Re-ligio, "re-linking" back to one's true nature, true self. This line reminded me of that, and I wanted to notate it. :)
@Melchior Magni The point of hard work is to discipline mind until it becomes efortless,buddhism is a thing for real because by living your true nature daily,by expirience,you cultivate spirit,actually correct saying is you recognize,some say remember cause you actually feel it as something you dont learn but recall as yourself,and then all mind ideas,projections,troubles fall off,thats why they call it hidden nature,until it is reveil,until you brake spell mind create,it is hidden.Once patterns of mind,habbits,thoughts,reactions etc.. you see as not real,as story,something which repeats itself and something which is keeping you in prison,which does not have life,when you recognize in daily life situations,mind is living on your energy,like parasite some say,you dont give importanse on mind,it will pass.Buddhism is real thing cause of karma also,doing good and getting back good,whatever you plant you get.Recongizing mind as illusory and reveiling "hidden nature" is daily practise,it looks east but more you go deep,you will see how mind has strong equipments,it plays dirty,and then again buddhisam is great cause of non-attachment and witnessing.Its easy to explain,practise is all we need.Hidden wont always reveil or it tends to reveil when it wants not when we tend,i recommend Ramana Maharashi and Nisargadata and Mooji,their truth pointers are outstanding,thats real living wisdom shared through words.Also the thing about the truth is when you make it a mind pattern you loose it,if you cling you loose it,if you try to catch it you loose it,but if you let it show you,it will work out for you,as long mind is clean.So discipline and clean mind,then everything happens actually naturally,meditation happens naturally..Sry for long post 👌😅
Just for other people to know, in Western religion, or at least in Christianity, "nature" is not corrupt. After all, in the Book of Genesis as God was creating the Earth and nature the phase, "And God saw that it was good" is repeated at every change. Nature was created good, although that is not necessarily the viewpoint now. Nature is a creation of God, not divine in itself. If anything, believing that Nature is divine, is more of a pagan naturalist belief, not really a Buddhist belief.

You explained everything perfectly. I have read the heart of the Buddha's teachings by thich naht hanh and you basically just read straight from the book, but instead of your words coming directly off the pages of Mr hanhs book, I could tell that it was from your heart as well. I was simply blown away from just how in depth you remembered all of the details. I guess what I'm trying to say is you are a very beautiful person inside and out and I thank you so very much for helping to educate others on Buddhism. You're a wonderful person
Thank you. Thank you so much. Wisdom from the Buddha, through your teachings, has touched my heart as well as my life in ways yet to be realized. Please continue as I, and those like me, have so much more to learn.
I truly appreciate the warmth of your bearing and presentation. You explain complex concepts in a clear, compassionate, warm, and easy to understand manner. Thank you!

Thank you for kindly posting your thoughtful presentation. I love it. For me, practicing of Noble Eightfold Path is the only way to understand Noble Eightfold Path. Cheers.
In Bihar, there are still villages that mean the eight fold path. Please allow me to interrupt. I feel Buddhists should know this. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.
You don't need to become a Buddhist all you need to do is read the philosophy if it strikes you then you're a Buddhist but you can be something else at the same time there's no god in Buddhism

Thank you for your Dhamma talk. It is so special in that by listening to your soft, clear and the smooth flowing of your speech, it creates an atmosphere of calmness, peace and tranquility. It would be good, if you could conduct meditation retreat and training.
Thank You, Mindah. I have watched several of your videos and have subscribed to your channel. You do very well explaining some rather complex topics in a way that makes them easy to understand. I really appreciate the thought and effort involved in the making of these videos. If any serious students of the dhamma read this comment... from my assessment, these videos are superior to most other teaching videos for English speakers... including some very well known teachers. Whatever it is that makes a person a great teacher instead of just a good one, Mindah has...
Very clear and thorough presentations. I think these videos have the potential of reaching many different types of people who wouldn't normally be reached through conventional "monk type dharma talks". Nice work Mindah.
I really like your example of identifying with other sentient beings in familial terms, such as mother and father, to recognize the common ties we have. I like to do this too with those around me in my community, silently thinking "hello brother" or "hello sister" when passing by strangers in town or at the market place.
Best and most concise explanation of the Eightfold Path, at least that i've seen anywhere. Definitely good stuff! Thanks for making this "accessible' for those of us out there looking to learn.
Mindah-Lee Kumar does a wonderful job of explaining things that were always confusing to me. I love how each lesson relates to modern life and teaches us all how to enjoy each other and ourselves. As long as you continue to make video, I will continue to watch and prosper. Thank you for taking so much time to help me become a better person. I hope I can give it back when I am ready. May peace be with you always
.Good video for those who seek the basis. Searching for Buddha's wisdom videos with 'elderly bald men in cloths 'catch the attention. However this young lady explanes the 8fold paths very clear with personal exmples and fresh interpretation, While sometimes, elderly 'monklike types' give a adry traditional speech, leaving the listner non the wiser,,. Well done.
Hey lady. I enjoyed your clip. My wife says im not awake. Im trying....I like Buddha. Its new to me but everything makes perfect sense.I might try samoa.
I have to tell you, that I decided this evening to watch a video on the noble eightfold path, and I tried three videos. The first two that I looked at were hard to understand although the speakers were professionals. So I Turned them off. Then I looked at yours, and I listened to it all the way to the end.
Hi Mindah, I've been studying buddhism for over a year. Your videos on eightfold path and the four noble truths are excellent. I've heard them and read them plenty of times however I've really begun to get it now after watching your videos :) It makes it achievable to put them onto practice. Great work and thanks..
***** Buddha's wisdom but your belief, and that belief shines brightly. Thank you. Could you speak on the Heart Sutra? I've been studying this all summer. I'm curious about your thoughts. Thank you!
I don’t remember the first time I realized I wanted to practice mindfulness. But ever since I did, I was more at peace and slow to anger. It feels really good. I just wish I’ve made the realization sooner.

I have been watching your videos over and over for some time now learning and trying to implement the Buddhas teachings in my life because of your great way of explaining. my wife told me the other day how much I have changed and how happier I seem. a friend told me I seemed so peaceful and at ease. I have never been as happy as I feel at this point in my life. Thank You Mindah. Thank you so much. You are a great and wise teacher.
I'm so happy to hear this! Thanks for sharing your experience with me. :) The Buddha's teachings also turned my life around too.

You’ll never meet me but I hope you read this. I’m just a dad of three daughters who is striving to be a good human. I just want to thank you for the videos you she produced. I’ve taken your videos to heart and have seen and felt a very positive change to my life and my impact to others around me. Thank you for taking the time to give us your comments and videos. In case you ever wonder, you’ve made a difference in my life and my community. Thank you.
Really enjoyed this clarity. I found this a great help. I have just discovered Buddha on this life's path after 70 years. Thanks.
I've listened to the Four Noble Truths Video and now this one. Excellent. So clear and practical. I chant and mediate. It has changed my life. I believe in a Karma to a certain extent meaning I do not believe in reincarnation. I am a Christian as strange as that may sound. Incorporating Buddhism into my Christian practice has enhanced my spirituality in ways I never imagined. Thank you for this teaching. I look forward for hearing more.
Hello Arica, Thanks for sharing. I'm an American and a Christian who has lived and taught in Thailand for the past 3 years. It is good to know that with Christianity spreading to Europe and the New World that Buddhism took hold in the east where it could serve as a moral compass for people's lives. And the teachings are similar to the Ten Commandments and Christ commandment to love others as oneself. It makes sense and I can see how you can utilize facets of Buddhism in your daily life. I appreciate your comment very much
I have lived such a negative life, I have finally found what makes me feel positive and good about myself. Thank you Mindah
It’s excellent work..let everybody come and watch it...

Your speech is so clear and easy to understand. I see your vulnerability and kind heartedness. Thank you for your clarity, training and knowledge.
I have tried meditating a few times in my life. Did not understand what may become of it and gave it up rather easily. I am new to studying Buddhism. I sure like the guide lines that have been simplified and written down. I am attracted to it. I have a long way to go as I am one of the least disciplined persons on earth. "practice" that is a new concept to me as I have learned to be a couch potato. I really like this extended look at the 8 fold path. I typed something up for myself to have as a Handy tool. I needed this extended version. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I look forward to exploring more of your videos.
My dear Mindah,
Thank You so much for your words and videos.
I believe I've found answers to question I've had most of my life. We are raised to believe what other people say.
Not ever having our own opinions just others thoughts and beliefs.
Everything we know we have found from outside ourselves, never from with in.
At 73 yrs old I have finally found the path to walk to Mukti
Blessings light and love to you

Thank you for teaching Lord Buddha's love of our family. You are a wonderful example of life and the love of that life. Thank you my Sister for helping our Brother's and Sister's to understand the reality of companion and hope. Thank you so much to reiterate looking for reality, mindfulness, understanding life.
You may be the most down-to-earth and humble person I've ever seen. Thank you for this educational video.
Thanks Tracy. Compassion is a part of Buddhism that resonates with me a lot. If people allow Buddhism to remain purely theoretical and don't let it touch their hearts, then they're missing one of the most beautiful aspects of it. :)

Excellent simple, clean and calming teaching embodying the teachings of Buddha....One definitely feels her right intention! Thank You.
Thank You Mindha for your pure sincerity and peacefulness in clearly communicate the marvelous 8 fold path of the of the Most Blessed Gautama Buddha. You not only expound but embody the deep peace that the Buddhas teaching can bring. I have found that the 8 fold path is a perfect blue print to solve any problem or situation. It is simple and a great reminder and corrector of the anxious and disturbed minds and lives. Jai Meher Baba!

Cambodians should know what I have to say. Please allow me to interrupt. I feel Buddhists should know this. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba).

I'm walking all alone on this path. Thank you for making this video so that I can learn to find myself.
Wow, one of the clearest explanations I've ever heard on the eight fold path. Thank you

Thank you very much for helping the bewildering beings! keep updating....
"It's said that 'Our mind's true nature is one of love, peace, and wishing others happiness.' (5:48) This line struck a chord in me because it shows one of the main distinctions between Western and Eastern thought. In Western religion Nature is corrupt, something to be corrected. In Eastern religion, Nature is divine, and bringing oneself back into accord with it is the goal, practice to end "dis-ease." Re-ligio, "re-linking" back to one's true nature, true self. This line reminded me of that, and I wanted to notate it. :)
***** Hey Mindah! That's a perfect way to put it. One reason you're such a great teacher. Thank you!
You might want to read some of Yogananda and also some of Ramana Maharshi..
@Melchior Magni The point of hard work is to discipline mind until it becomes efortless,buddhism is a thing for real because by living your true nature daily,by expirience,you cultivate spirit,actually correct saying is you recognize,some say remember cause you actually feel it as something you dont learn but recall as yourself,and then all mind ideas,projections,troubles fall off,thats why they call it hidden nature,until it is reveil,until you brake spell mind create,it is hidden.Once patterns of mind,habbits,thoughts,reactions etc.. you see as not real,as story,something which repeats itself and something which is keeping you in prison,which does not have life,when you recognize in daily life situations,mind is living on your energy,like parasite some say,you dont give importanse on mind,it will pass.Buddhism is real thing cause of karma also,doing good and getting back good,whatever you plant you get.Recongizing mind as illusory and reveiling "hidden nature" is daily practise,it looks east but more you go deep,you will see how mind has strong equipments,it plays dirty,and then again buddhisam is great cause of non-attachment and witnessing.Its easy to explain,practise is all we need.Hidden wont always reveil or it tends to reveil when it wants not when we tend,i recommend Ramana Maharashi and Nisargadata and Mooji,their truth pointers are outstanding,thats real living wisdom shared through words.Also the thing about the truth is when you make it a mind pattern you loose it,if you cling you loose it,if you try to catch it you loose it,but if you let it show you,it will work out for you,as long mind is clean.So discipline and clean mind,then everything happens actually naturally,meditation happens naturally..Sry for long post 👌😅
Just for other people to know, in Western religion, or at least in Christianity, "nature" is not corrupt. After all, in the Book of Genesis as God was creating the Earth and nature the phase, "And God saw that it was good" is repeated at every change. Nature was created good, although that is not necessarily the viewpoint now. Nature is a creation of God, not divine in itself. If anything, believing that Nature is divine, is more of a pagan naturalist belief, not really a Buddhist belief.
Thank you. I like the way you explain the concepts. Clear and direct. Great presentation

Thinking to call all sentient beings 'mum'. So simple and yet effective. I will be using this idea!
Metta.

This is a great video that explaining of Noble Eightfold Path. Thanks for your great video.

thank you for your soothing presence and great wisdom
You explained everything perfectly. I have read the heart of the Buddha's teachings by thich naht hanh and you basically just read straight from the book, but instead of your words coming directly off the pages of Mr hanhs book, I could tell that it was from your heart as well. I was simply blown away from just how in depth you remembered all of the details. I guess what I'm trying to say is you are a very beautiful person inside and out and I thank you so very much for helping to educate others on Buddhism. You're a wonderful person
Thank you. Thank you so much. Wisdom from the Buddha, through your teachings, has touched my heart as well as my life in ways yet to be realized. Please continue as I, and those like me, have so much more to learn.
I truly appreciate the warmth of your bearing and presentation. You explain complex concepts in a clear, compassionate, warm, and easy to understand manner. Thank you!
Im grateful for stumbling across your channel. I really needed a reminder and a breakdown of things.
Thanks!
Hi minda! Im a beginner at buddhism and your videos are very helpful. Thank you.

Im interested in becoming buddhist and youre videos are VERY helpful and full of all the information i need. Thankyou!!
You don't need to become a Buddhist all you need to do is read the philosophy if it strikes you then you're a Buddhist but you can be something else at the same time there's no god in Buddhism
Take it from me, I follow Eastern philosophy and I'm an avocado

Thank you very much. You have a gift for making complex ideas easily understood.
Thanks for creating this resource - so important that people know about this path. Xx
I love all of your videos and I think this is one of my favourites, what you said about no killing ANY living creature has really opened my eyes
This video is so old
Great! Just fantastic! I appreciate your understanding and delivery.. Very helpful!
Thank you for sharing this, I am everyday more and more interested in buddhism. :)

Thank you... Wonderful teaching....
Thank you for making this. You made it clear, easy and pleasing to listen to. I enjoy your vibe.
Thank you so much! Your teaching really made The Noble Eightfold Path easier to understand!

Great explanation... I was struggling to understand these concepts... but your video really helped me... Metta.

Simple kind and humble. First time I have listened to one of your talks. Clear and concise. Excellent portraying of the eightfold path. Thank you 🙏🕯️🙇
Thank you for your Dhamma talk. It is so special in that by listening to your soft, clear and the smooth flowing of your speech, it creates an atmosphere of calmness, peace and tranquility. It would be good, if you could conduct meditation retreat and training.
Thank You, Mindah. I have watched several of your videos and have subscribed to your channel. You do very well explaining some rather complex topics in a way that makes them easy to understand. I really appreciate the thought and effort involved in the making of these videos. If any serious students of the dhamma read this comment... from my assessment, these videos are superior to most other teaching videos for English speakers... including some very well known teachers. Whatever it is that makes a person a great teacher instead of just a good one, Mindah has...
Thank you for your kindness
Loved your crystal clear presentation--well executed teaching.
Very clear and thorough presentations. I think these videos have the potential of reaching many different types of people who wouldn't normally be reached through conventional "monk type dharma talks". Nice work Mindah.
Very good video about this. I appreciate your understanding for the detailed explanation with many clear and precise examples. Thanks!
I am looking forward to your next video!
Too long? pfffft.
you go girl! you rock!
I love your videos!!!
I'm so glad I found your channel!
I agree this is useful for GCSE exams
Rachael Lincoln agree but need more
I really like your example of identifying with other sentient beings in familial terms, such as mother and father, to recognize the common ties we have. I like to do this too with those around me in my community, silently thinking "hello brother" or "hello sister" when passing by strangers in town or at the market place.
Thank you for letting me understand so good.
Best and most concise explanation of the Eightfold Path, at least that i've seen anywhere. Definitely good stuff! Thanks for making this "accessible' for those of us out there looking to learn.
sadhu sadhu
Thank you for sharing these videos. I find them very helpful ☺
Mindah-Lee Kumar does a wonderful job of explaining things that were always confusing to me. I love how each lesson relates to modern life and teaches us all how to enjoy each other and ourselves. As long as you continue to make video, I will continue to watch and prosper. Thank you for taking so much time to help me become a better person. I hope I can give it back when I am ready. May peace be with you always
.Good video for those who seek the basis. Searching for Buddha's wisdom videos with 'elderly bald men in cloths 'catch the attention. However this young lady explanes the 8fold paths very clear with personal exmples and fresh interpretation, While sometimes, elderly 'monklike types' give a adry traditional speech, leaving the listner non the wiser,,. Well done.
Hey lady. I enjoyed your clip. My wife says im not awake. Im trying....I like Buddha. Its new to me but everything makes perfect sense.I might try samoa.
Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu
Well and clear explanation.
Your videos have helped me so much in my journey! I would love to see a whole video on right speech, as it is something I struggle with.
Really appreciate the spread of right understanding of the world & self. it will propagate peace within and among each others
thank you my dear sister for the video bless you
I cannot wait to see your video on Right Speech =)
Your videos are so wonderful!
I have to tell you, that I decided this evening to watch a video on the noble eightfold path, and I tried three videos. The first two that I looked at were hard to understand although the speakers were professionals. So I Turned them off. Then I looked at yours, and I listened to it all the way to the end.
Very good video to help Introduce the topic
I heart Respect 🌱Buddha
This teaching is as you say enthusiastic and fresh. Thank you.
Thankyou Mindah I was looking for an overview of the eightfold path and your's was succinct and straight to the heart, thanks again and again

Hi Mindah, I've been studying buddhism for over a year. Your videos on eightfold path and the four noble truths are excellent. I've heard them and read them plenty of times however I've really begun to get it now after watching your videos :) It makes it achievable to put them onto practice. Great work and thanks..
Truly enjoyed your talk on the eightfold path. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

I don’t remember the first time I realized I wanted to practice mindfulness. But ever since I did, I was more at peace and slow to anger. It feels really good. I just wish I’ve made the realization sooner.
Interesting experience. Please allow me to interrupt. I feel Buddhists should know this. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.
