    I am Thai. When I was young, my parents took me to a temple but I didn't have any faith or religion until when I was 19 years old I proved some of the truths that the Buddha said. I have practiced Buddhism ever since. I study the Tripitaka, meditate. Until now, it's been 24 years. I can confirm what the owner of this video said. in line with the true teachings of the Buddha You can be sure that the owner of the video clip understands and presents the Dharma according to the Buddha's teachings.

      @@kongming5822 If I know which moment of this video you mean. I will answer you more to the point.
      Your question reminds me of the 5 obstacles to calming the mind (hindrance).
      1.sensual desire (appearance drawn towards oneself)
      2.illwill (appearance, pushing away from oneself)
      3.sloth and torpor (looks not fresh, lethargic)
      4.distraction and remorse; flurry and worry; anxiety
      5.doubt; uncertainty
      All 5 of these are obstacles to peace of mind.
      in your doubts Organized in topic 4.
      when the mind is distracted It is like dirty water in a glass with sediment scattered. Couldn't see anything else in that water.
      as long as the mind does not put that distraction By concentrating on the feeling of one thing, one cannot calm the mind.
      But that doesn't mean No one can fix mental distractions.
      A-Nat-ta means non-self. No control.
      But there are many people who understand that If we can't control ,We couldn't fix anything.
      Indeed, what the Buddha said can not be controlled means If we wish that be like that Don't be like this, for example, let our minds be happy. Don't be sad. This is impossible.
      But things happen because of factors. Extinguished because of extinguishing factors.
      So we can create factors for results. For example, if you want to calm your mind, you can create factors by focusing on one thing.
      Our mind can only focus on one thing. It is like a stump narrow enough for only one person to sit on. when someone is already seated Others wouldn't be able to sit.
      So if you focus on one thing Nothing else can be intervened.
      However, there are many levels of calming down. If you want to calm down and concentrate at a high level It is necessary to eliminate all 5 hindrances.
      I apologize for not speaking English well. I've done my best to share what I know.

Maybe I will listen to the video again. The video is an incredible one and I do not wish to sound arrogant towards it. I just had the question on calming the mind because I meditate as well. Thank you kindly for your words of wisdom. Many blessings.

      @buildyourownhuman 2 года назад +12

      What is eternal? He conceded Nibana, the unconditional element... but he never says nothing is eternal... he simply says eternalists have wrong view. That there is nothing eternal and unchanging...
      There are meditative experiences beyond God, beyond consciousness, beyond everything. He gives detailed instructions on attaining one with God or one with the Universe... but admits that actually isn't the end of suffering.
      I'm interested in the actual evidence you have supporting something being eternal and unchanging.

      the process of being reincarnated or born again
      Reincarnation-

      From the perspective of a human with a human body & exist in the mundane World - sufferings is eternal.
      From the perspective of an awaken person, that which is eternal is the One's Buddha-nature, which is inherent in every living sentient being.
      It's beyond suffering - neither comes nor goes, neither moves nor stays nor dies. It neither suffers nor enjoys! It's a self existing sovereign.
      It's unknowable, undescribable or inexpressible. Some masters called it as "no-thing".

    My understanding is that the 5 aggregates are:

    2. Cognition (eg. “Seeing”)
    3. Recognition (eg. “Labeling”)
    4. Feeling (eg. “Like/dislike”)
    5. Reaction (eg. “Thought formation”)
    The aggregates you list in this video are far broader concepts, while the Buddha taught direct awareness of the 5 aggregates at the root level.

    • @DavidProrok
      @DavidProrok 2 года назад +6

      @Light Remus quite to the contrary. Thought is largely a distraction from ultimate truth. It would be more like “I have a central processing system for the objects that enter the 6 sense doors, therefore I am.”
      Mental contents are a thin veil on top of the depth of the body experience. Thinking is nothing compared to experiential knowledge of ultimate truth.

    One day I was walking in nature. A few days before, something happened within myself that left me still inside, worry free and in the present moment.
    On the walk I could all life around me. I stopped and looked deeply into a flower on a fruit tree and then I saw it, felt in, shared it. I looked at the person I was with and said, we are it and it is us.
    Saying the word “I” felt strange. I had never read or studied anything about duality/non-duality. There were times over the next following week that I felt like I was going crazy as my egoic self tried to fight back.
    The mornings were a challenge to let go and fall back into non duality but after a walking type meditation it came back, sometimes I would laugh at the cosmic joke-believing all my troubles were real etc. this truly is just a play. The true self is always there, I could feel it. For a while, I knew, felt that I or we are eternal. We are that which has always been, merely expressed in all that is around us.

      If you still consider yourself a Buddhist, consider taking refuge vows to make it official. It's good to have in your mindstream and formalizing things creates a powerful psychological anchor point. I'll never forget when I took refuge in this life, it's as etched into my memory as the birth of my children, becoming a Freemason, meeting my wife, etc. The postmodern world has tried to unpin us from the power of formative moments, by doing away with formality and tradition, and we're worse off for it. Good luck and blessings to you, fellow seeker. May you cross to the far shore.

    The door you walk into becomes more real then the door you walked out. The self is real, just as much as it is not. The Buddha chose to open that door. There are many. You choose. Flow in the endless ocean, or drop your anchor. There is no one truth, the truth is all things.

    • @sahassaransi_mw
      @sahassaransi_mw 2 года назад +17

      The Buddha's point is NOT to walk out one door and walk into the next.
      It is to walk out ALL doors, including the doors of "no self exists" and "I have no view" (See Dighanaka Sutta Majjhima Nikaya 74; where the Buddha says: "They give up that view by NOT grasping another view").
      In your simile, doors symbolize the various views ALL contained within the "NET" of Samsara (See Brahmajala Sutta), and the rooms they lead into symbolize the various kinds of suffering and mental/verbal/bodily action that those views bind you to.

    • @sahassaransi_mw
      @sahassaransi_mw 2 года назад +12

      And if the truth is ALL things, that negates the very idea of truth in itself.
      Because for truth to exist, falsehood MUST exist.Otherwise, what really is it you refer to as truth?
      Although you say there is NO ONE TRUTH, the view that "the truth is all things", is simply another ONE TRUTH for u (as opposed to the view "the truth is one thing").

      Truth is truth , very simple . Truth is only a word , we use words the same as Buddha used to communicate . If we humans did not exist , they would be no truth .
      Truth can be said by words or arise from silence .
      Truth from conscious aware silence is very powerful . Meditating on " Who am i? " can change your life if you have the will and entousiasm to seek answers . ✨

    My friend - ENDLESS THANKS for taking the time to create this video essay, flaws and all - this has been transformative for me in very profound ways. I've watched this video several times now, paying extremely close attention, taking notes, writing my own reflections and thoughts on these ideas, and I feel that I'm slowly moving toward a concrete understanding of the Buddha's teachings. It has provided me a space to contemplate in my meditation where I'm grasping, possessing, owning, desiring, accumulating, and all that I've attachments to or aversions from - to move toward just being and resting in contentment, love, and equanimity without having to say, in your words, this is me, this is mine, this is myself, and the feeling of I or me.
    Blessings of peace and equanimity to you.

    This was a fantastic first effort on this platform. I look forward to your future content. I have only recently begun to study, explore and examine Buddism and the teachings of the Buddah. I'm astounded that it's taken nearly 52 years of my current incarnation to bump up against this teaching. It is so very profound in a way that is verifiable through my own direct experience and has brought me such incredible serenity during the most difficult time of my life, that I find it hard to believe that we as a planetary species are on the precipice of annihilation and liberation simultaneously. If only the collective would stop, and turn inwards with our incessant seeking. For my own personal truth, it took an incredible amount of emotional pain to find this path and I'm so grateful that I have. I look forward to your future content, and for those who can relate to my words, I hope to meet your Buddah self as I continue my journey. Or rather, I hope to recognize you in rigpa if I ever realize it. Ha! There's just no getting away from using the words, me, mine, I and self. It's a good job we have concepts though or I'd have no friends 🙃

    Similar to grasping the idea of emptiness. We grasp the idea of no-self not to deny the existence and well-being of our physical bodies and minds. We grasp it and put it in the back of our head and look at ourselves through the lense of Buddhism. We will still recognize, maintain and take good care of our physical bodies and minds but we will no longer suffer from any dukkha that comes to them. We only observe and let them continue on their course. Thank you for the video.

While what seemed to be a semi-trance state that I achieved while meditating on your words and those of the Buddha in this video, I think perhaps who we are can only exist in the present moment, for it is only then that we can recognize ourself consciously, as in form and feeling and mental cognition. The "I" or You" can truly only experience whatever it is through these continuous strings of singular flowing moments. Thank you for this lesson.

  • @davidstrevens9170
    @davidstrevens9170 2 года назад +7

    Excellent post.
    With regard to the aggregate of consciousness.
    I believe that the Buddha was referring to consciousness of sensory data.
    Or sense - contact awareness.
    The concept of consciousness in general is sometimes used to illustrate more subtle states of mind that transcend the 5 senses.
    For example in the Mahayana schools of Buddhism they have a concept called 'clear light'
    Clear light is a way of describing the most subtle phenomena that prevents the doctrine of nihilism from being true.
    Of course the Buddha wouldn't encourage a practitioner to grasp at the idea of clear light.
    But a distinction needs to be made otherwise there is no cause for the Reality of existent
    existencelessness.

    • @k14michael

    • @sahassaransi_mw
      @sahassaransi_mw 2 года назад +1

      Perhaps your saying that the consciousness referred to in the 5 aggregates is consiousness born of sense data - may be true.
      But is this "pure awareness" u go on to mention, truly SEPERATE from the senses? For even "pure awareness" is something you are AWARE OF (otherwise how would we know of consiousness to talk of it now? How would we perceive it?), and therefore even pure awareness once again falls into a consiousness BORN OF CONTACT. Why? "Pure consiousness" is a recognizable and perceivable phenomenon (namarupa) that there is awareness (vinnana) OF.
      In the Brahmajala Sutta, the Buddha speaks of Partial Eternalism, in reference to the view that the Mind or Consiousness is eternal and permanent, but the other senses are not.
      The Buddha says that even this view is DUE TO CONTACT (phassa).
      So unfortunately, there is no Consiousness APART from consciousness born of CONTACT (and therefore apart from namarupa).
      No truly pure, seperate, and independent consiousness exists.

    • @davidstrevens9170
      @davidstrevens9170 2 года назад +3

      No truly pure separate and independent consciousness exists in this realm without being in contact with knowable phenomena.
      That's the limitation of worldly existence. We suffer the 3 aspects of conditioned phenomena. Namely Dukkha, Annica, and Anatta. (excuse my Pali spelling).
      I am referring (above) to the awareness that is always in contact with itself and only knows itself because it's own nature is knowing.
      This knowing has gone into thusness.
      Unconditioned by contact.

    I sought this experience single-mindedly since I was young. I feel myself to be at a halfway point where I've experienced it, but haaven't fully excepted it. It's like my ego, my concept of myself, refuses to acknowledge it's an illusion despite having seen it obliterated whilst my existence continues. Videos like this help me slowly come around to facing and accepting it as well as helping me realize that I'm not crazy for experiencing these things. I've slowly turned back towards that one ultimate realization and am preparing myself for acceptance of that fact, rather than being afraid of being no one and clinging the illusion.

    Thanks brother , it’s so refreshing to hear something so raw yet so beautifully crafted while making the dharma so clear and accessible. I mostly Buddhist meditation and psychology and hope I’m nearly as easy to comprehend. Blessings to all.

    The story of the Buddha is beautiful!
    I can relate to this concept of self. As i have dissociative identity disorder.
    I essentially have no self.
    One could say i am an interplay or a mutuality of alternate selves.
    No one self by itself is the self because to begin with there is not a single self.
    It is what i may call relativity that has served me my best understanding of self. Relativity of the yin and yang of mulitple 'sides' that one may say is like a many sided coin.
    Yes the coin exists and so do it's 'sides' but the point is, it is the coin as a whole and the relativity of each 'side' that one may begin to understand the self. Or i understand the concept of myself.
    Yin and yang ☯️ is everywhere and always present.
    It is under contentment that i find the most peace.
    Beautiful video and truly inspired ❤

    wow simply wow. As an atheist after listening to this it changed my mind to convert to Buddhism and study only Buddha teaching.

      you can learn Buddhist teachings without converting since there are no conversion into Dharmic philosophical traditions. Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism are all Dharmas ( Ways of living our lives) each of these three contains philosophical similarities and differences which are so amazing since you can just choose what philosophy you're drawn into.

      Please do not convert. Well no such thing as conversion in Buddhism. Just try the dhamma an see if it helps. No need to accept everything. Just question every damn thing.

      Atheism never made sense to me
      To first disprove something
      One has to acknowledge its existence

    Just found your channel…great interpretations for the laymen to understand his teachings easier…I have read his teachings many times…on my first 10 rounds, it was like reading it for the first time…my understanding and deeper insight to his telling deepened each time I read the Buddhas teachings…soon you will understand…through consistency of contemplation of the Buddhas teachings that world should also be ever so thankful that Gautama eventually decided to share what he learned…but only because the gods repeatedly asked him to…he almost didn’t…we should all be ever so grateful he did…
