May i challenge the part of attachment into non-attachment? What is the major value or moral standpoint of Buddhism hold? If i not comprehend it wrongly, it suggest us become non-attachment, accept every change, no change no growth, and the world nature is impermanent. But I would like to ask how human persist and keep fighting for some (moral) values, even some objective values for human? Like human rights, freedom, liberty, democracy, dignity, benevolence etc. If everyone accept Buddhism' idea, would human become no motivation to pursue some right and good value? Since the world is always changing and impermanent, then no world will have war and revolution to overthrow tyranny and totalitarian government/leaders? Take the situation in hong kong as an example, HK is under the tyranny of CCP government, they step on human rights, suppress freedom and arrest any political opponents as they want, no one can stop them. Did Buddhism will also suggest us accept it since world is impermanent and we should be non-attachment? What is the point of Holding Buddhism when facing immoral/difficult situation that is very tough? It seems just call the people suffering to give up and no persistence is useful since there is nothings exist forever. So how the people bear the suffering process that is very very painful? Imagine you can be arrest by the out of balance government everyday and every moment, without reasonable reason. What is the view of Buddhism towards morality, and their view of someone persisting some value they think is deserve to fighting for, even sacrifice their lives? Can anyone familiar with Buddhism tell me the answer?
The reason why you are not getting it is because you put the profound teachings in the wrong context. Non-attachment does not mean no growth or do nothing in the face of danger whatsoever. Yes, we ought to not attach to worldly things but that doesn't mean WE SHOUNDN'T CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. The reason why non-attachment is important in Buddhism is because even when the worst possible event happens, your emotion won't change for the worst, you will experience lesser suffering. Let me ask you this, what do you get for worrying (attachment) too much about the HK situation? The answer is extra anxiety and maybe depressed mood. Likewise, what do a wise man (non-attached) get for not worrying for something that is beyond his control? The answer is lesser suffering, lesser anxiety and definitely some peace in mind. Let me make this crystal clear, BUDDHISM DOES NOT SAY " We should accept impermanence/suffering as part of it, do nothing and give up". This is very wrong. The correct sayings from Buddhism is that ' Conditioned things are impermanent, STRIVE ON WITH DILIGENCE'. I hope you take some time to contemplate on this. There's a big difference in those two sentences. Conclusion, you should try your very best to achieve something that you yearn for be it wealthiest guy or Nirvana, but at the same time you should not be attached to conditioned phenomena as it brings suffering.
@@傾城-f3d And what do you get from being overconcerned with it? Suffering. You can fight for changes or preserve the old values if you think they are right. But do not let those things own and control you. That will just increase your suffering. Live wisely and freely is the message here. Also, Buddhism resists against the changes if they are wrong. Buddha even strongly said "Do not change my words, my teachings." That proves that Buddha did not say to blindly accept all changes, but do not let it haunt you down too much if it is inevitable. P.S. Even though he said that, the later Buddhist sects did not pay any mind to his words and change his teachings as they like.
@@傾城-f3d - Buddhism in a simple definition- What goes around comes around- Karma decides your fate. It’s all about understanding the impermanence and gathering good deeds in every aspect.
What I've noticed about Buddhist philosophy is that it is very much focused on dealing with life the way it is. No empty promises are made of a blissful afterlife or that karma will ensure that you are rewarded for your good deeds. One is told to accept life for what it really is and find peace in that...
This is true, and also, accepting things absolutely as they are and dropping the resistance is key towards the enlightenment journey anyhow. The goods come from the realization, which is the pinnacle of Buddhist aim.
@@home5893 because every tradition that has enlightenment as it's aim says the same thing. Internal resistance to what's happening in the present (the only time that exists) reinforces a character that doesn't exist. You aren't a separate individual and "you" or "I" don't exist. It's an illusion.
Yes, although Buddha did talk about Afterlife, it was not a main focus. And why is that? Because you can obtain the highest happiness, the enlightenment in this very life.
This video made me want to know more about Buddhism right now, it came exactly at right moment in my life, my life is constantly changing, lately I have been really struggling to accept that I am losing friends, not because something happened between us but bcz we are growing and all taking different ways in life, now I have to start over 😭, sth I really hate to do, starting over. My biggest fear in life up until this point has been about change, I just want things to remain constant, I want to constantly be in control but it has been my biggest source of stress and anxiety, I guess from now on I have to start learning how to accept change and move on, but how?. Thank you very much for this video and your beautiful voice makes it so much fun to listen to.

11:47 amazing explanation why we suffer in relationship, that exactly why i broke up with my ex-wife, I holding on something that are past their time, but it past already, and i start to attached on it, want it like to be the situation in the past. 15:30-35 also a big wisdom, refuse to change means refuse in growing, though-provoking ideas
I relate to your feelings, I was about to get in a relationship with a woman who wanted me to promise that we are forever together. I thought that maybe because I’m a child of divorce I have an issue with marriage, but after watching this video, I’m glad I declined her offer because she wanted what does not exist. A forever relationship. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen at points, but I’m saying if your entering a relationship expecting to be together forever, your fear of it turning otherwise will damage it, and the relationship actually dissolves. This is why it’s best to not expect anything and let life flow freely out of love and peace.
@@fadidabban yes, you are right, but I think is the problem of human's emotions, attachment is one of it nature. I think most of us want something we valuable/love, make me feel happier etc. to exist and never leave us forever, but as you say, it is unrealistic, the things after we have learnt from this Buddhism video is cherish the moment we still possesing them, and do the best accept the rest, when they leave, let it go let it go, can't hold it back anymore. (of course it is easier said than done, otherwise there was not case that some people committed suicide after divorce or broke up with their loved partners before)
I understand the point of you all here. But is this a realistic spiritual goal? To fall in love and not get attached, is that really possible? Aren't we guaranteed to get hurt? Are these Buddhist contemplations about impermanence enough to spare us the deep pain?
@@studentofspacetime i think it need keep trials and error, the more you got hurt, the more you get non-attachment easier, because you gradually understand nothing is permanent, the world nature is impermanent.
@@傾城-f3d there is perfect answer, I think like the video said. The more you resist change , the more it hurts. The same can be applied to pain. The more you resist the present moment being painful, the more you suffer,. Acceptance and compassion are essential for your mental health.
In a most simplifiy version of Buddha teaching is actually similar to a universal law, that in physics and chemistry has learned since 18th century, which is the principle of mass conservation. In our closed universe, the quantity of mass conserved over time, can neither be added nor removed. "诸法空相，不生不灭，不垢不净，不增不减"。Hence all your good deed bad deed, happiness and sadness, success or failure are also the same that gonna be conserved over time. That's why Buddha introduce the idea of Karma, because all deed amount to energy, matter and mass of the system must remain constant over time. Hence all harm you did to other will revert back to you over time as well, whereas your good deed would do the same as well. The only problematic issue here is when. So what Buddha attempt to accomplish here is to reduce the fluctuation of all deed, until we are no longer be burdened by it. Buddha don't aim for suffering or happiness but serenity.
Thank you very much ! It's so clear, well explained. You're a teacher yourself. Thanks very much, look forward to see the next ones. Take care. Namasté
This video is really nice and created a joyful curiosity around Buddhism and it’s teachings, directed towards self improvement in my case. Yet I only find off putting the fact that the 3 states indicated at the beginning are spelled wrong as I’m reading books about it and they’re written: “Anicca, Dukkha and Anattā”. But other than this really great video!!!
Well-crafted! Otherwise may I suggest using non-self as a translation of Anatta. Anatta comes from Ana(No) + Atta (self); The Buddha denied the existence of Atta or Self in Hindusm. His argument: If there really is a Self liberation from Dukkha , i e. achieving Nirvana won't be possible. Thz so much.
Good morning, I am listening to this at 2 o’clock in the morning I also need to mention that I am totally blind and this is very interesting and meaningful to me. My question would be is this a book that I can get on an audio cartridge or is this something that is documented on just a TH-cam channel? And if so what is the name of this book. Thank you very much.
Book reccomendation for understanding buddhism. No Mud, No Lotus. The Art of Transforming suffering. You can also search for these names on youtube and you will find many very good audio teachings. Thich nhat Han, Ajahn Brahm,
This is a TH-cam channel named Philosophies for Life- 676,000 subscribers The title of this video is: Buddha-How To Deal With Changes In Life (Buddhism) Views: 64,780 on October 15, 2021
The TH-camr introduced the content as follows: In this video we will be talking about how to deal with changes in life from the philosophy of The Buddha. Gautama Buddha was a philosopher, a spiritual leader and is credited as the founder of Buddhism. The teachings of Buddha revolve around Duhkha, which means suffering, and the end of Duhkha, which is regarded as the state of Nirvana. The philosophy’s most essential teaching includes the Three Marks of Existence, which are as follows: 01. Annica which means that life is in a constant flux 02. Duhkha which means that life is painful and causes suffering, and 03. Anatta which means that the self is always changing According to Buddha, our thoughts and experiences are subject to these three marks of our existence. It is a way of understanding ourselves and the world around us and in this video we will be talking about the first mark of existence-Annica to better understand the ever-changing, impermanent nature of life and how we can deal with the changes that come with that. Here are 4 ways we can try to not only embrace life changes, but also be happy and grow with them, from the philosophy of The Buddha - 01. Acknowledge the change 02. Practice non-attachment 03. Embrace change 04. Learn from the experience I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope these lessons from Buddha will help you in dealing with changes in your life. The Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. He was born as Siddhartha Gautama in India in 566 BC into an aristocratic family and when he was twenty-nine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May , with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the awakened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realized in that moment. Around him developed a community of people, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. Nowadays, he is worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the enlightened one who has escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth, transcending Karma. Their main teachi ngs focus on their insight into duhkha meaning “suffering” and into Nirvana, which means the end of suffering.
To know suffering and to be free from suffering is the core subject of the Buddha’s teachings. There are many words of wisdom in the sutras. Like other religious scriptures, some later Buddhist scriptures were forged by later people, not the real words of the Buddha. The real Buddha is in the early Buddhist scriptures, more humane, more reasonable, mostly translated from Pali-- the language spoken by the Buddha Reference audiobook: “The Dhammapada” - Sayings of the Buddha (verses ) th-cam.com/video/0Og_q4qwjLs/w-d-xo.html
Pretty much everything in Buddhism is a fallacy ( mistaken belief ). Buddha was quite clear on this point. You see, the first principle of Buddhism is that most people (the non-Enlightened) are not seeing life clearly. In fact, they are so confused, it’s as if they are walking through life completely asleep. Only the Enlightened are awake (which is why many people prefer the title “The Awakened One” to describe the Buddha.) So Buddha had a real problem on his hands. How to explain the Dharma to people who were sleep-walking through life and could barely understand a word he said? It was such a daunting problem that he almost gave up before he started. Then he was inspired by compassion, and decided to find a way. His solution was not to worry about describing absolute truth. He would simply lay out a path, one which he felt could be followed by the people of the time. And it worked pretty well. Every now and then one of his followers would take his words a bit too literally, and he’d have to say When I speak of emptiness, or Boddhisatvas, or whatever it is, these things aren’t what you think they are: these are just figures of speech. In short, he’d have to keep reminding them that his words were a map, not the territory. Much of the Large Sutra on Perfect Wisdom is spent elaborating on this point. As Edward Conze summarizes in the introduction of his translation: One should become a Bodhisattva There is no such thing as a Bodhisattva So if you want to get past fallacies, then practice Buddhism without worrying so much about the fallacies, always remembering that truth is not something you hear with your ears, but something that must be directly experienced. Good luck!
that's really on point with what I'm dealing with now. I've been learning from the Dhammapada (up to verse 40) and it's starting to seem a bit brainwashy. Then it starts talking about people flying and stuff... :-/
@@sonnyk4840 Sure, we really need revelation. Of course He could save Himself, but dont see it the humanistic or even demonic way ❤️✝️ ‘Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation‼️ (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come! For our sake HE MADE Christ to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him WE CAN become THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God’ (= ‘right standing with God’). 2Cor5:17,21. ‼️ONLY in this way.
For me, When you like or love something (or someone) you are also aware of impermanence, that the object of your affection can be lost anytime. Therefore you will automatically be aware of staying in the moment more and be the best person you can. Also, when you love without attachment, you will be able to distinguish between love and delusional addiction with jealousy, craving, anger etc.. because you want to own that object of affection. Sometimes, a person cannot recognize that there is no love left but still cannot leave a toxic relationship. I am sorry if my English is not good to explain what I want to say.
It`s important to see the difference of 1: Independence 2: codependence 3: Interdependence. It`s only 1 and 3 that`s healthy. Nr 2 is toxic. Truly understanding it takes years of therapy, study, meditation, and experience in real life. Good luck
Buddha is k/a "man of sorrow". To avoid sfr³ it's necessary to exit world. After many years of suffering he sat in meditation under a peepal tree for 81 days in bodhgaya (Bihar). His enlightenment is known as 'NIRVANA' . NIRVANA is the end of the vicious cycle of birth and death. Budha was leader of escapists . He attained "ILLUMINED MIND PLANE OF CONSCIOUSNES ". It's a world of great peace , TIMELESSNESS , THOUGHTLESSNESS , SPACELESSNESS & the rest . But world remined as such . In 19th century was born the greatest spiritual figure of the Earth planet, SRI AUROBINDO. Unbelievably , he attained NIRVANA in just 3 days though he wasn't seeking Nirvana. He realised that Nirvana is only personal solution ; there's no change in the world. He came to know that it was far short of enough . The same was told him by lord Krishna & vivekanands in Alipur jail .This made him to do formidable TAPASYA for many decades in a single room in Pondicherry. Unbelievably , he didn't meet even Subhash Chandra Bose & Gandhi during this period of time . He attained SIDHI AFTER SIDHI . IN 1926 he was OVERMENTALISED & became equal to krisna but krisna had told him that though OVERMIND plane of CONSCIOUSNESS is formidable but it can't change anything on poor earth; you will have to go further than OVERMIND. He restarted TAPASYA agan & attained the highest plane of CONSCIOUSNESS on the earth . This plane is k/a SUPRAMENTAL plane of CONSCIOUSNESS . In 1956 vibrations of SUPRAMENTAL entered the atmosphere of the earth after his exit in 1950 . But Earth ate them up . Man will descend to Earth only after the establishment of SUPRAMENTAL plane of CONSCIOUSNESS on Earth. The brain-mind ( plane of CONSCIOUSNESS of so-colled humans) took some 14000 years to make a foothold on Earth. At present, too, it's trying to fully establish itself on Earth ( only 5% of BRAIN-MIND is working) . Then who we are , if not men . We r not a MAN but an ANIMAL-MAN. We r 80% animal & 20% animal. Some people are 100% animals . With the coming down of man life on Earth will start. LIFE HASN'T BEGUN YET. To hasten it we all hv to make contribution , but we aren't , alas !
The lack of compassion in Buddhism is astounding. Unreal. Any one of us (imperfect humans that we are) would have been moved enough to ressurect the grieving woman's son if we had the power to do so. We would have at least helped her bury her son and console her. Enough said.
The Buddha says “All conditioned things are impermanent' - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering”.

Beautiful story. This story is for everyone who will listen to its wisdom… Thank you for this.
What you are doing , sharing, giving, spreading moral and righteous words is the greatest giving, the Buddha said. May you be happy, healthy and peaceful!
Change is inevitable. Thank you for this one!
I have listened to many of your videos and I must say I got a lot out of this one in particular. Thank you so much.
Greetings from INDONESIA 🇮🇩
Change is no longer our ENEMY... it becomes our TEACHER 👍 Thank you for uploading 🙏🏻💕
The energy of change is personified in the planetary archetype of Uranus - the great awakener - the planet of sudden shocks, change, evolution. True wisdom is timeless🔥✨
11:47 amazing explanation why we suffer in relationship, that exactly why i broke up with my ex-wife, I holding on something that are past their time, but it past already, and i start to attached on it, want it like to be the situation in the past.
15:30-35 also a big wisdom, refuse to change means refuse in growing, though-provoking ideas
I relate to your feelings, I was about to get in a relationship with a woman who wanted me to promise that we are forever together. I thought that maybe because I’m a child of divorce I have an issue with marriage, but after watching this video, I’m glad I declined her offer because she wanted what does not exist. A forever relationship. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen at points, but I’m saying if your entering a relationship expecting to be together forever, your fear of it turning otherwise will damage it, and the relationship actually dissolves. This is why it’s best to not expect anything and let life flow freely out of love and peace.
@@fadidabban yes, you are right, but I think is the problem of human's emotions, attachment is one of it nature. I think most of us want something we valuable/love, make me feel happier etc. to exist and never leave us forever, but as you say, it is unrealistic, the things after we have learnt from this Buddhism video is cherish the moment we still possesing them, and do the best accept the rest, when they leave, let it go let it go, can't hold it back anymore. (of course it is easier said than done, otherwise there was not case that some people committed suicide after divorce or broke up with their loved partners before)
I understand the point of you all here. But is this a realistic spiritual goal? To fall in love and not get attached, is that really possible? Aren't we guaranteed to get hurt? Are these Buddhist contemplations about impermanence enough to spare us the deep pain?
@@studentofspacetime i think it need keep trials and error, the more you got hurt, the more you get non-attachment easier, because you gradually understand nothing is permanent, the world nature is impermanent.
@@傾城-f3d there is perfect answer, I think like the video said. The more you resist change , the more it hurts. The same can be applied to pain. The more you resist the present moment being painful, the more you suffer,. Acceptance and compassion are essential for your mental health.
Thanks for making this video, I've been fight a life change for a year now and this video just really helped me.
At this moment in life The Buddha is the only path that makes any real sense.
I go at my own pace and take my time and just do the best I can for each day that Our Creator of the Whole Universe gives to me.
Sri Lanka is the best place to learn about Buddhism
In a most simplifiy version of Buddha teaching is actually similar to a universal law, that in physics and chemistry has learned since 18th century, which is the principle of mass conservation.
In our closed universe, the quantity of mass conserved over time, can neither be added nor removed. "诸法空相，不生不灭，不垢不净，不增不减"。Hence all your good deed bad deed, happiness and sadness, success or failure are also the same that gonna be conserved over time.
That's why Buddha introduce the idea of Karma, because all deed amount to energy, matter and mass of the system must remain constant over time. Hence all harm you did to other will revert back to you over time as well, whereas your good deed would do the same as well. The only problematic issue here is when.
So what Buddha attempt to accomplish here is to reduce the fluctuation of all deed, until we are no longer be burdened by it. Buddha don't aim for suffering or happiness but serenity.
Very useful information. !
Listening to this video made me believe in myself and gaining more knowledges about the circle of life.
Thank you so much 🙏
the best teacher in life is yourself!!
Thank you very much ! It's so clear, well explained. You're a teacher yourself. Thanks very much, look forward to see the next ones. Take care. Namasté
This video appeared at the right time.
This video is really nice and created a joyful curiosity around Buddhism and it’s teachings, directed towards self improvement in my case. Yet I only find off putting the fact that the 3 states indicated at the beginning are spelled wrong as I’m reading books about it and they’re written: “Anicca, Dukkha and Anattā”. But other than this really great video!!!
..... 4 Noble Truth.......
........ Buddhism............
Well-crafted! Otherwise may I suggest using non-self as a translation of Anatta. Anatta comes from Ana(No) + Atta (self); The Buddha denied the existence of Atta or Self in Hindusm. His argument: If there really is a Self liberation from Dukkha , i
e. achieving Nirvana won't be possible. Thz so much.
YES!
Very beautifully presented! Life's philosophy!!
what a wonderful and inspiring episode1 thanks!
Science can never challenge Buddhism- Buddhism discusses about so many incredible things- Buddha had discussed even about black holes 2.500 years ago.
Thank You So Much! 😇👍
Love it. Very insightful. Thank you very much.

Thank you 🙏
Good morning, I am listening to this at 2 o’clock in the morning I also need to mention that I am totally blind and this is very interesting and meaningful to me. My question would be is this a book that I can get on an audio cartridge or is this something that is documented on just a TH-cam channel? And if so what is the name of this book. Thank you very much.
Book reccomendation for understanding buddhism. No Mud, No Lotus. The Art of Transforming suffering. You can also search for these names on youtube and you will find many very good audio teachings. Thich nhat Han, Ajahn Brahm,

The title of this video is: Buddha-How To Deal With Changes In Life (Buddhism)
Views: 64,780 on October 15, 2021
The TH-camr introduced the content as follows:
In this video we will be talking about how to deal with changes in life from the philosophy of The Buddha. Gautama Buddha was a philosopher, a spiritual leader and is credited as the founder of Buddhism.
The teachings of Buddha revolve around Duhkha, which means suffering, and the end of Duhkha, which is regarded as the state of Nirvana. The philosophy’s most essential teaching includes the Three Marks of Existence, which are as follows:
01. Annica which means that life is in a constant flux
02. Duhkha which means that life is painful and causes suffering, and
03. Anatta which means that the self is always changing
According to Buddha, our thoughts and experiences are subject to these three marks of our existence. It is a way of understanding ourselves and the world around us and in this video we will be talking about the first mark of existence-Annica to better understand the ever-changing, impermanent nature of life and how we can deal with the changes that come with that. Here are 4 ways we can try to not only embrace life changes, but also be happy and grow with them, from the philosophy of The Buddha -
01. Acknowledge the change
02. Practice non-attachment
03. Embrace change
04. Learn from the experience
I hope you enjoyed watching the video and hope these lessons from Buddha will help you in dealing with changes in your life.
The Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. He was born as Siddhartha Gautama in India in 566 BC into an aristocratic family and when he was twenty-nine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May , with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the awakened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realized in that moment. Around him developed a community of people, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. Nowadays, he is worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the enlightened one who has escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth, transcending Karma. Their main teachi ngs focus on their insight into duhkha meaning “suffering” and into Nirvana, which means the end of suffering.
To know suffering and to be free from suffering is the core subject of the Buddha’s teachings. There are many words of wisdom in the sutras. Like other religious scriptures, some later Buddhist scriptures were forged by later people, not the real words of the Buddha. The real Buddha is in the early Buddhist scriptures, more humane, more reasonable, mostly translated from Pali-- the language spoken by the Buddha

Very interesting. Thanks🌸
Awesome
great!!!
❤❤❤
I think anyone can benefit from this method of thinking.
Great video.
Wonderful
The changes in the woman's life is mind blowing, she's a hero. I have her featured on my channel.
Pretty much everything in Buddhism is a fallacy ( mistaken belief ). Buddha was quite clear on this point.
You see, the first principle of Buddhism is that most people (the non-Enlightened) are not seeing life clearly. In fact, they are so confused, it’s as if they are walking through life completely asleep. Only the Enlightened are awake (which is why many people prefer the title “The Awakened One” to describe the Buddha.)
So Buddha had a real problem on his hands. How to explain the Dharma to people who were sleep-walking through life and could barely understand a word he said? It was such a daunting problem that he almost gave up before he started. Then he was inspired by compassion, and decided to find a way.
His solution was not to worry about describing absolute truth. He would simply lay out a path, one which he felt could be followed by the people of the time. And it worked pretty well. Every now and then one of his followers would take his words a bit too literally, and he’d have to say When I speak of emptiness, or Boddhisatvas, or whatever it is, these things aren’t what you think they are: these are just figures of speech. In short, he’d have to keep reminding them that his words were a map, not the territory. Much of the Large Sutra on Perfect Wisdom is spent elaborating on this point. As Edward Conze summarizes in the introduction of his translation:
One should become a Bodhisattva
There is no such thing as a Bodhisattva
So if you want to get past fallacies, then practice Buddhism without worrying so much about the fallacies, always remembering that truth is not something you hear with your ears, but something that must be directly experienced.
Good luck!
that's really on point with what I'm dealing with now. I've been learning from the Dhammapada (up to verse 40) and it's starting to seem a bit brainwashy. Then it starts talking about people flying and stuff... :-/
Buddha’s last words: ‘ I did not make it’
Jesus’ last Words: I T I S F I N I S H E D !’
All our SINS HE BEAR, total solution for ever! ✝️❤️
@@bolandbert LOL!! You mean the guy that couldn't save himself from being brut@IIy fl0gged and then cruc!f!ed ?? 😁😁😁
@@sonnyk4840 Sure, we really need revelation. Of course He could save Himself, but dont see it the humanistic or even demonic way ❤️✝️
‘Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation‼️ (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
For our sake HE MADE Christ to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him WE CAN become THE RIGHTEOUSNESS of God’ (= ‘right standing with God’). 2Cor5:17,21. ‼️ONLY in this way.
@@bolandbert one of those people were happy with delusion, one was happy without delusion.
All this things i learnt and found it without knowing anything about Buddha.
Can someone please further explain mastering non attachment in relationships
For me, When you like or love something (or someone) you are also aware of impermanence, that the object of your affection can be lost anytime. Therefore you will automatically be aware of staying in the moment more and be the best person you can. Also, when you love without attachment, you will be able to distinguish between love and delusional addiction with jealousy, craving, anger etc.. because you want to own that object of affection. Sometimes, a person cannot recognize that there is no love left but still cannot leave a toxic relationship. I am sorry if my English is not good to explain what I want to say.
@@jayjimenez5867
Tnx❤
It`s important to see the difference of 1: Independence 2: codependence 3: Interdependence. It`s only 1 and 3 that`s healthy. Nr 2 is toxic. Truly understanding it takes years of therapy, study, meditation, and experience in real life.
Good luck
Wow!
Buddha is k/a "man of sorrow". To avoid sfr³ it's necessary to exit world. After many years of suffering he sat in meditation under a peepal tree for 81 days in bodhgaya (Bihar). His enlightenment is known as 'NIRVANA' . NIRVANA is the end of the vicious cycle of birth and death. Budha was leader of escapists . He attained "ILLUMINED MIND PLANE OF CONSCIOUSNES ". It's a world of great peace , TIMELESSNESS , THOUGHTLESSNESS , SPACELESSNESS & the rest . But world remined as such . In 19th
century was born the greatest spiritual figure of the Earth planet, SRI AUROBINDO. Unbelievably , he attained NIRVANA in just 3 days though he wasn't seeking Nirvana. He realised that Nirvana is only personal solution ; there's no change in the world. He came to know that it was far short of enough . The same was told him by lord Krishna & vivekanands in Alipur jail .This made him to do formidable TAPASYA for many decades in a single room in Pondicherry. Unbelievably , he didn't meet even Subhash Chandra Bose & Gandhi during this period of time . He attained SIDHI
AFTER SIDHI . IN 1926 he was OVERMENTALISED & became equal to krisna but krisna had told him that though OVERMIND plane of CONSCIOUSNESS is formidable but it can't change anything on poor earth; you will have to go further than OVERMIND. He restarted TAPASYA agan & attained the highest plane of CONSCIOUSNESS on the earth . This plane is k/a SUPRAMENTAL plane of CONSCIOUSNESS . In 1956 vibrations of SUPRAMENTAL entered the atmosphere of the earth after his exit in 1950 . But Earth ate them up . Man will descend to Earth only after the establishment of SUPRAMENTAL plane of CONSCIOUSNESS on Earth. The brain-mind ( plane of CONSCIOUSNESS of so-colled humans) took some 14000 years to make a foothold on Earth. At present, too, it's trying to fully establish itself on Earth ( only 5% of BRAIN-MIND is working) . Then who we are , if not men . We r not a MAN but an ANIMAL-MAN. We r 80% animal & 20% animal. Some people are 100% animals . With the coming down of man life on Earth will start. LIFE HASN'T BEGUN YET. To hasten it we all hv to make contribution , but we aren't , alas !
Buddhism should not be mistaken as escapism from challenges and shunning from one"s duties.
Right on time
what is changeless in universe?
“Forgive them for they know not what they do”
Overall great video! But you did mispronounce annica throughout the video. The consonant c in Pali and Sanskrit is pronounced with a ch sound.
Duhkha due to desire within human, eg greed,
Constant change due to human always got choice to select the path they choose,
interesting
Gloria in Excelsis Deo!
Big Bud
The lack of compassion in Buddhism is astounding. Unreal. Any one of us (imperfect humans that we are) would have been moved enough to ressurect the grieving woman's son if we had the power to do so. We would have at least helped her bury her son and console her. Enough said.
🙏
Impermanence
Detachment
Embrace change
Learn from experience.
🙏💎✌
Re-birth is inevitable unless you achieve Nibbana which is extremely difficult thing to achieve in this commercial world
🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌷🥀🌺🌼🌻
Buddah philosophy is very good in theory but hard to practice.
Anicca should be changed as Anithya - impermanence
