As a Tibetan I’m forever thankful to master Thich Nhat. His imprints on this planet is profound. He truly lived by Buddhas teachings. I cry when I hear him.
So grateful for his existence. He is so much within us and amongst us. I have listened to many Buddhist teachers who stray into confusion and fear when teaching. Thay makes it so easy to understand and ingrain into me the teachings of Buddha. Form is emptiness and emptiness is form. I now understand. 🙏
many concepts of Buddhist thought are quite difficult for some to embrace. The confusion before you in any given teacher or message is just as much a part of your Dharma as any of your past lives.

I was just in Hue this summer and happened to visit the temple where he resides... I learned that after visiting there, I certainly wasn't there to hound him or seek autographs. Probably the most profoundly peaceful and powerful place I've ever been to..it was almost overwhelming, and walking back to town afterwards i nearly passed out from feeling and emotion overtaking my body and mind. I don't want to name the temple but you can find out. I mean it was totally random really...there are loads of temples in that area and I just happened to pick that one.

This is because that is; This is not because that is not. This that: You are in me And I am in you; We are one. De Will=de 1. De One=de good; It is empty+blind nothing.
To realize the Empeatness, is necessary have got the Enlightement. There is no words or explanations that show what Empeatness really is. God pervade all, including the Empeatness. Even the sleep is without dreams when you get Empeatness ou Enlightement. I felt shame what i did through my life. How i was fool.
Emptiness is the truth of everything so don't get attache nor hate. Everything you think and are is you created,your mind. Your mind is the master and the creator of you and your world. You have to be very clever master of your mind because your mind also controls your heart and body. Since everything is emptiness in reality so it's possible you to become a great master of everything including your clever mind, innocent heart and your precious body. Realizing emptiness gives us so much energy. You are basically a Buddha if you deeply understood the reality of everything,the emptiness.
With all respect! It's true that without my father I wouldn't be, but now my father is dead, but I still exist. So I was only temporarily dependent on my father not because of my soul which is not empty but independent, but because of my not fully developed body and functionality of his organs which are limited by time. The body is like a house where my soul abide. And when this house no longer suits me, I will move to another better house. And the goal of my meditation is to transfer my soul into better body when time of death will come. The soul is permanent and idistructibile and symptom of the soul is consciousness which is magic power that can push the soul into another body and this means eternal life.There is no orchestra without a conductor and no symphony without an orchestra.
If you think about it, doesn’t the concept of a a permanent self seem implausible? Even over the course of one human life, the illusion that is one's concept of self undergoes countless changes.
I've experienced voidness without any substance... it lasted 3 whole days... it was not pleasant... I've experienced the illusion of everything around me... I had no wants, no desires, not even an opinion or judgement because there was nothing around me, only emptyness. I lived my whole life based on intensity and strong emotions... it's all a lie.. who am I without all these emotions? it's all ego driven.. even our purpose in life The only thing I liked about this state, is that there was no fear of anything. There was no survival mode.
What/who felt the unpleasantness? What/who was experiencing the illusion? I am really curious. How did the breath feel? What did the body feel like? I have many many questions if you have some time to share.
@@nomad_333_ it seems that there was some kind of consciousness... I am not sure I can answer your questions because although it lasted 3 whole human days, it feels like it was just a passing moment when I try to remember this state.
@@nomad_333_ The conclusion of the experience I had is that there is nothing around us, externally, what the senses perceive is only the construction of a conciousness that wants to lead us in this unification process. There is nothing around us. All humans around represent the broken pieces we have inside. We all have the same purpose in life but different paths. All souls are looking for love and acceptance. Real love has no identity, no desire, no name, no preference. Real love has no FEAR.
Sounds like clinging was still present, which is not complete emptiness. Or perhaps when clinging returned after the 3 days, perception constructed the feeling of dislike. Self is a habit pattern. It is the shadow of desire (liking and disliking). Until ignorance/craving is dissolved, perception will continue to construct self out of sensory experience. Keep practicing without any preferences and you will get past this hang up
Do you mind if I write a subtitle in Portuguese? I would love my parents to watch it and perhaps other people will be able to watch as well and benefit from it.
There is still a self but just an "ever changing self", is that what he intends to mean? Or if there is no self, then who tells there is no self? It still needs a self to tell that (a paradox)! Thus It seems to me the former interpretation is more reasonable?
The wind blows - is a redundancy in terms, so is 'the rain falls'. In other words, they are unintelligent and pointless expressions ...... never thought of it this way.... thank you, Master🙏
Very interesting. I am going back and forth between Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta...it is interesting to note that Buddhism in some very core regards seems to contradict Advaita---essentially meaning that either Buddha was wrong in his assessment or the Advaita saints were (Nisargadatta, Maharshi etc.). Almost strange to think that such lights of human consciousness got it wrong.

Nothing in this world has a self-nature and self-existence except God. (Col 1:15-20) All human beings are His derivatives because we don't exist in ourselves intrinsically, but God does. He gives humans existence. (John 1:3) True our body has billions of cells working together to make our body machine function physically, but we all are also given a soul, otherwise how do we think, feel love, get angry? God gives us a soul each but he also give us free will to decide matters for ourselves. He exists outside of our physical realm. He is our "rainer" and the only one who is able to be and not inter-be is God alone. Amen!
You have not raise your perception high enough to experience your ego directly from moment to moment as it rise and fall. A person who don't know himself at root level. Come to a conclusion about god written in a book😂 Truth about our self nature cannot be experienced from forming opinions in the mind but directly experience the moment to moment birth of the I- consciousness from within. Remember the kingdom of heaven is within us,,,, bible. Turn inward to experience this quote dude😊

That is not HINDUISM. The ..3000 year old is animal sacrificing BRAHMINISM...
Don't use word HINDU, it is not mentioned in any scriptures written by BRAHMINS, 4 VEDA, MANUSMRITI, 120 UPANISHADS, 18 PURANA, even in valmiki RAMAYANA & VEDAVYASA MAHABHARATH .....
Word HINDU is not mentioned by even Adi Shankaracharya (8th century A.D) in any of his book and commentaries...
When he himself did not mention the word HINDU, How did he unite HINDUISM is a biggest mystery in HINDUISM.....
Word Hindu first mentioned in
Kitab ul-Hind is the famous book written by the scholar Al-Biruni. Al-Biruni was a Persian historian, mathematician, and astronomer.
In 11 th century A.D....
Only Brainless brahmins and their Varna followers say HINDUISM 3000 yrs old ....😂😅😂

Chỉ cần Đức Phúc hát ballad thì dù buồn hay vui ĐP cũng truyền tải cảm xúc của bài hát rất tốt. Bài buồn thì nghe đúng kiểu tự sự, đau khổ, nghe là muốn khóc. Còn bài vui thì lại nhẹ nhàng, ấm áp, chân thành nghe là muốn yêu❤️

Beautiful talk. Thank you.
Thank You
This all makes perfect sense. Still I feel so incredibly disconnected and a strong sense of alienation here in the West. Anybody else?
It’s like living in a society of addicts who don’t even realize they’re addicted! But from what I hear the east is unfortunately becoming much the same way in many regards, sadly.
one time i walked so far west that i wound up east

Yes we are conditioned to perceive ourselves as separate selves. It makes sense but to truly live it and feel it deeply requires lots of practice

This is because that is;
This is not because that is not.
This that:
You are in me
And I am in you;
We are one.
De Will=de 1.
De One=de good;
It is empty+blind nothing.
"Emptiness does not mean non-existence."
This reminds me of an empty glass. The glass exists, it is just empty.
Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. Namo Buddhaya.
To realize the Empeatness, is necessary have got the Enlightement.
There is no words or explanations that show what Empeatness really is.
God pervade all, including the Empeatness.
Even the sleep is without dreams when you get Empeatness ou Enlightement.
I felt shame what i did through my life.
How i was fool.
Nicely explained 👍
Emptiness is the truth of everything so don't get attache nor hate. Everything you think and are is you created,your mind. Your mind is the master and the creator of you and your world. You have to be very clever master of your mind because your mind also controls your heart and body. Since everything is emptiness in reality so it's possible you to become a great master of everything including your clever mind, innocent heart and your precious body. Realizing emptiness gives us so much energy. You are basically a Buddha if you deeply understood the reality of everything,the emptiness.
When there is name-and-form, consciousness comes to be; consciousness has name and form as its condition.
The 8 links of Interdependent Origination must be understood intellectually but REALIZED with discernment.
With all respect!
It's true that without my father I wouldn't be, but now my father is dead, but I still exist. So I was only temporarily dependent on my father not because of my soul which is not empty but independent, but because of my not fully developed body and functionality of his organs which are limited by time. The body is like a house where my soul abide. And when this house no longer suits me, I will move to another better house. And the goal of my meditation is to transfer my soul into better body when time of death will come. The soul is permanent and idistructibile and symptom of the soul is consciousness which is magic power that can push the soul into another body and this means eternal life.There is no orchestra without a conductor and no symphony without an orchestra.
At last i understand all of it!

In emptiness there is still a self.
Yes but no permanent one.
They teach that the self is a construct, that it actually doesn't exist. Sounds scary to me.
If you think about it, doesn’t the concept of a a permanent self seem implausible? Even over the course of one human life, the illusion that is one's concept of self undergoes countless changes.
@@direfranchement Then, what is that?? That is aware of self undergoing countless changes???

I've experienced voidness without any substance... it lasted 3 whole days... it was not pleasant... I've experienced the illusion of everything around me... I had no wants, no desires, not even an opinion or judgement because there was nothing around me, only emptyness. I lived my whole life based on intensity and strong emotions... it's all a lie.. who am I without all these emotions? it's all ego driven.. even our purpose in life
The only thing I liked about this state, is that there was no fear of anything. There was no survival mode.
What/who felt the unpleasantness? What/who was experiencing the illusion? I am really curious.
How did the breath feel? What did the body feel like? I have many many questions if you have some time to share.
@@nomad_333_ it seems that there was some kind of consciousness... I am not sure I can answer your questions because although it lasted 3 whole human days, it feels like it was just a passing moment when I try to remember this state.
@@nomad_333_ The conclusion of the experience I had is that there is nothing around us, externally, what the senses perceive is only the construction of a conciousness that wants to lead us in this unification process. There is nothing around us. All humans around represent the broken pieces we have inside. We all have the same purpose in life but different paths. All souls are looking for love and acceptance. Real love has no identity, no desire, no name, no preference. Real love has no FEAR.
Sounds like clinging was still present, which is not complete emptiness. Or perhaps when clinging returned after the 3 days, perception constructed the feeling of dislike. Self is a habit pattern. It is the shadow of desire (liking and disliking). Until ignorance/craving is dissolved, perception will continue to construct self out of sensory experience. Keep practicing without any preferences and you will get past this hang up
You experienced void. This implies that there were two thing at the moment of experience you and the void itself. Seems duality to me.
Do you mind if I write a subtitle in Portuguese? I would love my parents to watch it and perhaps other people will be able to watch as well and benefit from it.
this is because that is
🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
😊🙏🙇♀️
There is still a self but just an "ever changing self", is that what he intends to mean? Or if there is no self, then who tells there is no self? It still needs a self to tell that (a paradox)! Thus It seems to me the former interpretation is more reasonable?
The wind blows - is a redundancy in terms, so is 'the rain falls'. In other words, they are unintelligent and pointless expressions ...... never thought of it this way.... thank you, Master🙏
The wind is a perfect example you don't see it yet it exists, we are just human beings and don't know everything. Is there a self or not ?
Existe il cette vidéo en français svp ?
Merci 🙏
I wish they put a mic on him with anti-reverb properties..
It’s often difficult to hear what he’s saying.
No such thing as empty=emty. What is fullness life eternal is just TμAT= 👀 maybe thIS bUt WE.I.Rd ALL😊NE....hAUMble BE....👀💗🌍💛
For last 2000 years, they are explaining emptiness only.

Very interesting. I am going back and forth between Buddhism and Advaita Vedanta...it is interesting to note that Buddhism in some very core regards seems to contradict Advaita---essentially meaning that either Buddha was wrong in his assessment or the Advaita saints were (Nisargadatta, Maharshi etc.). Almost strange to think that such lights of human consciousness got it wrong.

What contradictions between Buddhism and advaita have you noted?
One of a kind. Is there a transcription of this video? Many thanks and abundant blessings.
Dear Dara, thank you for the kind words. Yes, try the 'show transcript' feature under the video and a window with the transcript will open next to the video. Hope this helps. With gratitude 🙏
@@plumvillageapp Thank you kindly for you reply. Am very much aware of this feature that exists only on a cell phone app which for the moment I do not possess. Thought there is a way to find on my Mac too.

Nothing in this world has a self-nature and self-existence except God. (Col 1:15-20)
All human beings are His derivatives because we don't exist in ourselves intrinsically, but God does. He gives humans existence. (John 1:3)
True our body has billions of cells working together to make our body machine function physically, but we all are also given a soul, otherwise how do we think, feel love, get angry? God gives us a soul each but he also give us free will to decide matters for ourselves. He exists outside of our physical realm. He is our "rainer" and the only one who is able to be and not inter-be is God alone. Amen!
You have not raise your perception high enough to experience your ego directly from moment to moment as it rise and fall. A person who don't know himself at root level. Come to a conclusion about god written in a book😂 Truth about our self nature cannot be experienced from forming opinions in the mind but directly experience the moment to moment birth of the I- consciousness from within. Remember the kingdom of heaven is within us,,,, bible. Turn inward to experience this quote dude😊
