    Welcome to my channel, please enjoy my travels to Africa where I have visited to date 1 Oct 21, 13 countries and I will be on my journey to complete the 54 countries from November 2021 onward. I have plentiful of information and if you desire to visit or move to the continent, please don't hesitate for a consultation and or my International Pre-Travel guide. Please look at my video given you the information to help and assist you • Video
    I showcase Africa in my travels to include other countries. My desire is to change the narrative that the western world painted in a negative light of Africa. My channel has talks, words of wisdom, business, investing, purchase property in Africa and livestream discussions. I further show the negative impacts of America in how it continues to have a disregard for Black people. I know my channel is not for everybody whether you agree or not, but my intent is not to hurt people nor disrespect.

    Would love to see Buddhism become a counter balance to the overwhelming presence of Christianity and Islam..
    Guess I'm a little biased being a tantric Buddhist.. but it's awesome to to see a Buddhism in Africa ..

      I have a question for you, would your practice of teachings make you a full on Nun automatically of the faith or would it be that you are starting a self exploration of the teachings and seek more knowledge to be of enlightenment, Just sheer Curiosity. I was always taught that every being on this Earth was allowed to find their truth without consequence if they so choose. What would be your take on this exploration of your truth?

    GoBlack; I believe that you’ve outdone yourself, this time.
    Though I’ve, thoroughly, enjoyed every, single, episode of your teachings ( that I have absorbed, to date ) - this, particular, detoxification master-sode ( in my opinion ) is, absolutely, profound.
    You are a credit to, both, the Diaspora - and; humanity, at large.
    One caveat:
    The, most, crucial thing that I’ve gleaned, from Venerable Monk Sangharakkhita :
    Critical self-analysis and understanding is paramount to, all ( underscored ), external underpinnings.
    ‘The gravy, on top :
    Evil =
    Hatred
    Greed
    Delusion
    The Contrary =
    Light
    Truth
    Truth Seekers
    So - we should start referring to those that, grossly, oppress others ( especially, us ) as ‘HGDs;’ and our audience as ‘LTTs.’

Living a life of Purity and having a direct connection with God. We live on the basis of the soul and it's qualities (knowing the self)..

    I hope that what the Buddhist monk was saying is clear.
    We become the Masters of our reality when we accept this hard truth: Our experiences are all the children of our own consciousness. What we have experienced we gave birth too. If there is something wrong with the womb of our consciousness, and for most of us there is something wrong; we have to do the internal work of healing that.
    Haven't you ever noticed that the Whites look like phantoms/ghosts, while Blacks look like shadows? That is because while you are real to yourself, you are a shadow my consciousness is projecting. While I am real to myself, I am a phantom you are projecting. The change has to come from within, which, it seems to me, you already know.
    As for victim shaming: Compassion comes in not because the person is a victim of someone else, but because they are the victims of their own uncontrolled consciousness which beats them up in the forms of phantoms and shadows they project without knowing they're doing it. Compassion, real Compassion, is helping people understand how the mind works and get it under control so that they don't hallucinate their own worst enemies.
    When you asked the monk if he believes in a God who created the world, he evaded your question because he knows that anyone who talks about God in the third Person needs to get their consciousness under control.
    By the way: The Hebrew word for wombs is the same as the Hebrew word for compassion. The way to fix the womb of your consciousness is to intentionally increase your compassion.

    17:40 The venerable is talking about attaining enlightenment(Nibbana) here. In other words, cessation of suffering. It is the goal of Buddhism. There are 3 forms of enlightenment: Buddha, Pacceka-Buddha and Arahath. You don't have to become a Buddha to achieve freedom from suffering. Becoming a Buddha entails much more than that. Simply achieving freedom from suffering is called becoming an Arahath.

      i think you missed the monk's point. reaching a "creator" is meaningless when you do not know yourself. why? because the issues we have to solve on earth can only be solved by us who live on earth. trying to connect to a "creator" is a way to escape from problem solving and escape from knowing and addressing one's self and one's own history.
      in addition, any "creator" is not some friend that's gonna bail you out with a miracle when your decision making is poor. not to mention, there are many americans whose belief in a "creator" did not stop them from ending up in jail or prison.

      My point was that only an individual can be comfortable in their own skin...... for their chosen spiritual journey or enlightenment.
      You're focusing too much on the semantics of the word "Creator".
      Since it seems to be bothering you, focus on the part where I said "final destination" in your spiritual journey.
      Better?
      Buddhism, no matter how much you preach to the choir may or may not be the best fit for an individual's spiritual nourishment. Again, It's a personal matter. That's all. 🤷🏾‍♀️
      Even if one choses to be an athiest.
      Even an athiest can have transformational experiences without necessarily having an organized belief system of anything in particular.

BTW buddha is not his name. GAUTAMA was his name. Buddha is one of his titles. People worship buddha but he never declared himself god. He taught people to reflect and meditate and then only then make a choice for their own good. Never blind faith and follow. Tremendous work of mind by yourself. No threat going to hell if you don"t want to hear his teaching. No punishment either. Hard mental work is needed in fact. Taking own responsabilities. Easy to lean on god who promise to save your soul only if you follow him kind of blindly. Time to reflect.
