Isn't that the sweetest. We all need to say that to ourselves and to the Holy Spirit. Welcome your Loneliness. I think it is the Holy Spirit wishing to hear and feel your presence.

This was the very first utube video that I ever saw.I didn't know who Thich Nhat Hanh was. I was absolutely captivated by his calm, gentle wisdom, and have been filled with tranquility ever since that day, several years ago. He changed my life, and I'll be forever indebted to him. ❤🙏
I’ve felt depressed all day today. No matter what I did , I couldn’t lessen it. Then I remembered this talk on loneliness. I’m lonely! I’ll sit with my loneliness and see what happens.
I like the analogy for the cloud formation. There is no birth or death of the cloud. It is always there in different forms, as water vapor, as rain, as water in our lakes, rivers and oceans...This is the same as what we perceive as life and death; it is a continuation.
Because there is no birth or death. There is no form. All that is, is spirit.....one spirit. When we realize this as the only basis, the only Reality....everything makes sense as it really Is. As Reality actually is in essence, Then everything naturally is synchronizing together effortlessly. Otherwise we operate from temporary ignorance. We see the essence of life now when we surrender our human mind perspective about reality. That human mind perspective is the basis of samsara, and ignorance, suffering. What Thay is pointing to is Life that would correlate to what the Bible says in hebrews 11:1-3...faith IS SUBSTANCE , all that is visible ismade of whay is notvisible; to what Jesus said "wind blows where it will, dont know where it comes from nor where it is going, so IS EVERYONE who is born of God " john 3. There are many hidden hints of how things really are, in Bible, but one has to open the eyes of the heart in order to see. Same thing Thay assumes as a basis of understanding of what he is talking about. Peace and love
Amazing he can write Chinese, French, Vietnamese..truly a scholar and master. Thank you for your wisdoms so us beings can suffer less and live harmoniously. So blessed to learn everyday.
His words are like music in my ears. Everything he says reasonates with me on such a deep level. And somehow I feel deeply connected with him even though I don't even know him personally. It's true. We are all connected.
Hello Plum Village Community. I ask for your positive intentions for my niece Anila who has just been diagnosed with lymphoma. Pray for her and her family. Thank you so much.
We all one Consciousness,how can we be lonely???But We not aware we connected 🤷♀️🤷♀️🙈🙈😳😳😳to Trees to the dog to everything and we boundless,what more can you ask for🤷♀️🤷♀️🧐🧐🧐💜💜💜 🙏 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Wow. This really opened my eyes. I’ve always gone through life saying I didn’t need to know what my purpose was…. It was always what I didn’t like about organized western religions. But I viewed the experience of life through the way the world presented itself to me. (Seeking happiness, love, avoid pain, avoid loneliness, etc). And here is is explained. There is no purpose…we just are. And to be fully present, we need to experience everything willingly and with wonder. I have such a long way to go…but today was a huge revelation. Thank you for this. And thank you Zannie.
Many Times listened, many times thought I understood the message but today I felt sooo lonely, but this time I didn’t had fear to this sad and lonely feeling, this disconnected feeling and Thay send me a another time this message to be able to ambrace my lonelyness and I realy understood the lonelyless of each of us.
'go home to yourself' - accept the body, thoughts, feelings - be at one with yourself through: acceptance, non-striving, connecting with the present moment - see how everything changes!
@@kathrynbresser3991 It all starts with breathing. When your mind starts to race or if you feel in a state of emotional pain. Stop thinking and bring your awareness to your breath. Breathe in through your stomach. Low breathes. Breathe deep, release slowly. Do this while walking if its easier. Watch Sam Harris' video on connecting with the self, its a very good meditation video that helps one experience oneself differently. Think of others more. Be aware of their suffering. Know that everyone suffers. Search up Buddha's story about the two darts of suffering. 'when you know how to suffer, you suffer much less.' Hope that helps.
Its not quite true that we cant connect using computers. If it wasnt for them I wouldnt be able to hear and seeThich Nhat and to watch him delivering words and heart of wisdom! Thank you.
I understand your point. But that’s less of a connection and more just access to listen. Truly connection with him would be sitting with and having an understanding connection. Truly connecting with someone over technology is difficult because it is not in the moment. The way we converse over technology is not as intimate or honest as looking someone in the eyes. ❤️
You feel connected, which is good. I first became connected (to myself? to the desire to connect with others?) through the Occupy Movement. But he is not connecting with you at the same time, so it's not actual connection; more of an access to knowledge. I worry that people put a little too much faith in technology, is all. :)
he says that once you are connected to yourself, it won't matter if you are not in the same city with the other person. I gess that includes any kind of communication, even computers, phones, letters, anything
Thank you first for your lessons of loneliness. Loneliness is a feeling that everyone experience. I feel that the only way to not feel so lonely is to have love in your life, to know Gods love for you to be full of the holy spirit, And of course to have companionship someone that you love and they love you. Yes the real connection is to know yourself first and make peace with yourself and love yourself first. Not everyone one has companionship there are millions of single people in the world. But yes there well be days that one feels loneliness but think positive and count your blessings We are only human and try not to look back , look forward with hope. Every day is anew day. One day at a time please.☺
Thank you Great Teacher. It's Wonderful when you say; you can't create energy and you can't destroy energy. That statement is deep and I can apply it in different many ways to improve my life. Lots of hugs. Evangelina Cortes.
So clarifying. We can’t live in our society continuously grasping. How do we stay strong in knowing our freedom in every moment surrounded by our delusional, “logic”? I know it’s the truth but still so many suffer.
Always be mindful with Action of Mind, Action of Body and Action of Words., otherwise will achieves Sins...Buddhism teaching are so in details...thanks
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Venerable Thay. This talk is a marvelous fountain of knowledge for me to understand a little bit more about this topic. Evangelina Cortes.
The world will miss you, but through your teachings I understand now. I will see you and will be able to continue to learn by seeing outside the illusion of samsara.
Yes the Buddhists actually talked a lot about fear . It is one of the worst things ... and they actually believe that fear or too much of it can cause a person to reincarnate in the animal realm ... this is one of the reasons it's so important to overcome fear . Yet we have so many people around the planet being very fearful right now with everything that's going on and the price of food and petrol and it seems basically the price of everything going up and up . People are worried that we're going to have a nuclear war because of Putin and a few others . Yes many people are fearful
I got an inkling of what Nirvana means, it's just coming out of ignorance or misconception or misinterpretation of what we perceive. It's a bit similar to getting our concepts cleared how an equation works in algebra

That's probably the simultaneous translation (to French, most likely) going on. She'd be sitting in the front, talking into a microphone, so people wearing headphones can hear the translation in real time when they don't speak English.
My dear loneliness, I know you are there but now I am back home to take care of you. 😊 Thank you 🙏

Same here. Nothing helps. I’m 64 and keep working just to be with people but at the end of the working day it’s just me and my thoughts.

What I distilled from this presentation is that Fear is the lynchpin underlying all your obstacles throughout living life.
Yes the Buddhists actually talked a lot about fear . It is one of the worst things ... and they actually believe that fear or too much of it can cause a person to reincarnate in the animal realm ... this is one of the reasons it's so important to overcome fear .
Yet we have so many people around the planet being very fearful right now with everything that's going on and the price of food and petrol and it seems basically the price of everything going up and up .
People are worried that we're going to have a nuclear war because of Putin and a few others .
Yes many people are fearful
So true how can you connect with others when you can't connect within yourself first..
What thich nnat hann doing now,he is a great man this is real mindfulness, I hope I can come to plum village one day if they allow dogs lol 🐕🙏
Special thanks to your holiness .
