Great video, I was in a beautiful marriage before my now ex wife left me, i still love her and most times i cant stop thinking about her, i am doing my very best to get rid of the thought of her, but i just cant, i love her so much, i dont know why i am bring this here for, i cant stop thinking about her.
I have let go of everything. My family, my friends, my career, my dreams and desires about the future, my past, my anger, my fears. Nothing makes sense any longer and Im all alone. But I feel peace, a peace I never felt before. Im curiuous how life will continue
For it is in closing our eyes that we begin to see.
If you do not make it, do not fret, as long as you gave it your all, move on keep going till u die......these internet BS videos of glorifying the goal of making millions.......as if its going to prevent you from dying, just move on brothers live life by what you feel like....
Attachment is the root of all suffering.
for those who struggle to understand - basically the idea is not to try too hard and being moderate with your desires because if you chase them then you get obsessed by them which leads to losing yourself and also the point of the end goal
I'm always troubled when I listen to Alan Watts, and the same with Trungpa Rinpoche. Both were full of wisdom about suffering, yet they both died relatively young of alcoholism. I guess we have to seperate their teachings from their lives. We're all such enigmas.
His voice sounds weird. Is this AI generated?
I’m affraid if I let go there will be nothing left, of me. I have been fighting for so long that my personality has become dependent on my quest. My struggle.
He should have let go of the booze.
“Sometimes
In Martial Arts, real mastery is achieved when exhausted - when you are so tired, you no longer care, but still forge ahead, with no regard for the outcome. At that point, you have truly just let go - whatever happens, you did your best, you're still trying, but the outcome is outside your control & you are ok with that. Acceptance. Zero concerns.
He is right letting go ceases suffering but we are all exactly where we need to be or else we would not exist. We have to go through our trials and errors for It is in the darkness we appreciate the light and in the light, the darkness humbles us
"Pleasure in it's fullness can not be experienced when one is grasping it"
I've never commented on anything before. But here I just must thank you.
The way I have detached myself from the past is by realizing that this long gone human isn't me. We don't have the same personality, the same thoughts, heck even the same aspirations. Whatever happened to him happened to him and whatever will happen to me will happen to me. I too in a few years will probably be only a distant hazy memory, with another human resembling my image and sharing my name taking my place.
This video delves into the profound realm of detachment and the art of letting go, drawing on the wisdom of Buddhism and the philosophy of living fully without clinging. The notion that true pleasure and the essence of life are found not in grasping tightly but in the freedom of letting go resonates deeply. It's a reminder that life's transient beauty is best experienced in the moment, without fear of loss or the burden of possession. The analogy of the little girl who squeezed the bunny too tightly, metaphorically illustrates the counterintuitive truth that to truly hold something precious, we must hold it lightly. This video doesn't just explore the concept of detachment; it invites us to reconsider our approach to life's pleasures and pains, urging us toward a state of being where we can fully engage with life in all its undulating, unpredictable beauty, yet remain free from the confines of our desires and fears. A truly liberating perspective that challenges us to find balance in the 'middle way,' embracing life's experiences without becoming ensnared by them.
Exactly what I needed to hear at this moment.
Just let it go, dont look back.....stay strong 💪💪💪💪
