  • Ajahn Brahm tells the story of the Four Old Men: wealth, success, peace and harmony. The story teaches us about getting our priorities right because Ajahn says a lot of problems in life come from when we focus on something which is not worth very much and sacrifice things which are worth far, far more. Ajahn explains how when we get our priorities wrong we suffer and we create suffering for others.

    As is usually the case, listening to Aajahn Brahm, there is so much hidden meaning in his teaching, He inspires rapt attention.

    A very insightful talk on Harmony by Ajahn Brahm.I enjoyed it a lot.Thanks for clearing up the differences between Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism. I always wondered what made them different.First time it was explained clearly.

    Ajahn Brahm was born so that I can hear the teachings of the Lord Buddha. “ AB and the forest way is ...neither traditions ... neither Mahayana or Theravada/Hinayana !...” Excellent ! But,,,, Wanting to get off this “hamster wheel” is not being selfish. The hamster runs happily on that wheel thinking that it’s going somewhere. But if it saw himself, it would see that he’s not going anywhere....LOL. Once you’ve seen and realized the truth about the illusion of our existence, you too will want to get off the roller coaster (the hamster wheel) that we call life.

    Great anecdote about the old woman vegetable seller in Taiwan who quietly donated millions to charity while living a simple frugal life and was written up in Forbes magazine .

    I agree. Only some two thousands people watch it and they like it. I share this with my friends regardless of their religious background. This is very simple and beneficial for mankind. In broad sense, Harmony and Peace are always supporting each other and the rest follow. Thanks so much.

    Thank you so much, but I can't take any credit!.. I am a devotee of Krsna, and I simply follow the Vedic understanding. Like so many others on here, I also get great inspiration from AB's wonderful talks!

    This is one of the fame-use story among Turks and Muslims. 4 old men where Love, Peace, Wealth and Success. They invited Love.
    -Strange thing is Peace, Wealth, Success and Love all old men.

    Ajahn bram... I’ve seen many Kung fu movies and they always depict the Buddhist ways, they tell the same things you say in your dharma talks,

    “... Sacrifice myself for others ? .... “ I don’t think so! Siddhartha Gautama didn’t sacrifice himself for his wife and son. I might for my mother, brother and sister.

    yes, we are all out for harmony...but when our own existence is threatened by the other party, we need to deal with it right? how to keep saying for harmony sake you kill me?

  • @HotZetiGer

    @iamgoddard To live in harmony with outside world & other ppl, human must have peace inside him. But if something moves him, like not peaceful ideas & beliefs, human tries to change outside world and influence others. So you need to invite peace ( inside you ) first to have some harmony. :) -maybe I don`t clearly understand English words.
