What did you learn for yourself this year? Timestamp 0:00 Intro 1:22 Impermanence 9:37 Follow through on your dreams 15:02 Don’t attach to outcomes 19:04 Create your own game 23:06 Base your decisions on the end goal 27:09 Ground yourself
That I'm far stronger . Putting the effort=evolving. Being positive is like everything else: putting the effort. Life is a tremendous gift. Smiling is contagious. For me, it was a awakening year. Again, thanks for sharing
I agree, life is impermanent. Anything or anyone can be taken away from us in a split second. It is important to live in the present moment and surround ourselves with people we care about such as our family and close friends. Value each of them and spend quality time with them. Even sending simple text messages (every so often) is good. I do not want to waste my time around negative people or talk about negative things anymore. It's a waste of my precious time 😝. Better to focus on the positive, better yet, meditate just to reset our mind and body. Ven Nick, sounded like you had anaphylaxis but I'm glad you're doing ok now 👍🏻
Ven. Nick, so glad that you are fine now after an incredibly terrifying experience. My deepest gratitude to your brother monks for taking such good care of you. Congratulations on your 4 years anniversary! Yayyyy! Sending you lots of warm wishes and love 🌟💞
Thank you Venerable Nick for sharing your experience. It seemed very scary and a close call at the same. I am grateful that you are healed and I am also. grateful that your monk brothers took care of you Buddha bless you . I wanted to know can you chant and meditate for me. I am grieving over Ven. Thich Thant Hanh.I used to read his books when I was in my twenties.He was a huge inspiration for me.I feel it is going to take some time to process. Thank you, Tata
Sweet teacher, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences so openly. I am so glad you made it through such a frightening experience! This has been a difficult year for me as it has been for many people I am sure. I purchased your book The Buddhist Cleanse (and also the audiobook) and after studying it I began practicing uposatha at least twice a month with the new and full moons, along with a daily meditation practice and Dhamma study. You are so correct, it makes a huge difference. I have much more to learn and a long way to go but I would not have made it this far down the path without the Dhamma and beautiful souls like you who so openly share it. Thank you for being a part of the reason I am still in this world. Much love and blessings to you and your brothers in the monastery from North Carolina, USA 🤗💕
Thank you Kristie. I hope things continue to improve for you. I'm glad that the book has been helpful. Please keep practicing diligently and things will fall into place. Keep up your great work! cheering you on from Thailand!
This life isn't the greatest for me rn, I'm trying to follow my buddhist ways but it is getting hard. Your videos help me so much tho. Thank you brother
So glad to hear you were able to heal from that allergic reaction. As someone who also suffers from severe allergies, I know exactly how scary it get can get. Best wishes for you in this new year. I'm looking forward to reading your books. 😊🙏
I’ve been following your channel for months already. Thank you for sharing the wisdom to those who need it most. The world had gone through a lot and sometimes we were distracted and it’s difficult to stay grounded.
I am an extreme introvert as well, almost to a fault.. I dont socialize with anyone but a few close relatives, I dont even have a social media. I created an Insragram but as soon as I got a couple of followers I deleted the page. It felt so uncomfortable and awkward. I am working with a therapist right now to open up a bit more. Just as you mentioned, having ideas and goals is great, but you have to put in the work and really focus on the process. As an aspiring writer/producer myself, being able to network and share is just as important as creating great material if you want to be heard and afforded certain opportunities, so I am working on getting over my blocks through therapy (and meditation, of course.) I appreciate the wisdom in your videos.
WOW! beautiful my friend. Our challenges is often our biggest strength. We just need to know how to work with it and develop balance. So i'm glad you are meeting with a therapist for support. You will be a great writer and producer for sure. keep up the great work and please continue to update us on your progress!
Ven. Nick, I’m so happy you recovered fully from that terrifying allergic reaction. As you were speaking about all the “opportunities “ you are offered to “ go here and there” with your teaching I kept thinking how grateful I am to have found you right where you are. Your teaching are so pristine in their simplicity and those who are on the path will find you. I’m truly grateful I did. Be well and Thank you💐
Indeed Venerable Nick, your work here is obviously not done! I’m SO grateful you were spared!!! We need you and in this worldly classroom our lessons are far from over!!I remain teachable and beyond grateful you are still in front of me!!🥰🕉🙏🏻☮️♥️Take good care! We need you❣️🪬🕉☮️🙏🏻🙋♀️
Just listening to your soft voice and watching beautiful forrest background is soul soothing 🙏 Thank you for sharing your incident story, indeed this human life is so fragile it can be interrupted even by a tiny creature. This is a great reminder to appreciate it even more. Congratulations on your 4 years as a monk, what a beautiful journey 🙏
My life has changed so much since last year when I found you,myself for this year,I stopped explaining myself,I live my life and follow the precept,I get judge anyways no matter what,I am happy with me,I live my life for me and enjoy it with my husband.Thank you I am so happy you are ok,life is short,live it❤️❤️
Ven Nick, I am so glad you are okay. You have helped me so much on my spiritual journey this past year. Please continue to share your wisdom and learning-you may not be able to write, but verbally you are a star. Your messages are clear, concise and from your heart. Thank you it’s an honor to listen to you.
thank you for always sharing your wisdom. I can’t imagine how scared you were going through that ordeal. We have red fire ants here and even a few bites is awful. Please take care of yourself and congratulations on 4 years as a monk. You are a blessing to us all.
I am so glad you are doing alright after such a terrifying experience! You will never know how much your videos have helped me to a calmer, more intentional and happier life. It is a process and some days are harder than others to practice mindfulness, gratitude, meditation and such, but I always make an effort. I have watched many of your videos several times to refresh and keep them in my mind. Thank you so very much, I truly hope you won't stop making videos any time soon! All the best for 2022 and for your 4th birthday from Canada!
❤❤❤It is most terrifying. I can relate as I listen. I also have been hospitalized several times for anaphylactic shock for accidentally eating red meat. When your Airways swell off and you are breathing through an opening half the size of a straw you must have extraordinary powers of concentration and control. Blessings on you and long may you live you live to spread your teachings and wisdom😅❤
Writing you from our small Caribbean country of Trinidad & Tobago. I am relieved to know you're OK as it was truly a close call. God has more plans for you. Nick your inspiring words help me start my day right most mornings and today's message of follow your dreams is like a sign from God. I am recovering from covid and have been scared to follow my passion but in this quiet time when I'm feeling better your words have encouraged me to act. Thank you, you are a beautiful soul and I hope you know that you are making a difference in this world and in my life. Thank you Nick. May God bless you and keep you safe.
Namassakarn LP Nick, I’m Thai and I’m a Buddhist since born, I just fully realized and awaked the truly meaning what’s Buddha’s teaching is by followed your all VDOs here then I tried practice 3 days retreat at Pa Pae Meditation retreat center last week, Now I’m so happy with myself and being neutral ever to clearer see the thing and my thought. I’m really appreciated What and knowhow that LP Nick and LP Michael fully contribute to everyone. Krab Namassakarn ka.
Wow I'm so sorry to hear about your ordeal Ven. Nick... But your good brothers would never let anything happen to you... You're in good hands 🙏🏻☮️🙏🏻 Congratulations on your 4 years 🎉
This video is one of my most beloved, Ven Nick. So many important points. Here are a few that stick with me... . Note the impermanence of life. . Keep moving but slow down. . Know our intention. . Control what we can control. . Learn about and respect ourself. . Progress a day at a time. . Live a life of purity. . Increase, maintain stability. . Share with the world to help all suffer less. . Don't attach to the outcome. . Be true to yourself instead of following what others do. . Do not seek praise. . Keep a schedule, purify daily, record our progress.
"Each day do something that takes you closer to your goal" very nice video my friend, thanks for sharing the 4 years of experience with us. I'm very sorry the story with the Ants happened to you. I'll pray for your and your Buddhist monk brothers. Happy your are healthy and ok now!
So glad you are doing better from your emergency. God has a plan for all of us. Thank you for the video! I have been waiting to see what you have learned. Love what you said about not doing what everyone else is doing. One reason why I am not married.
So happy that you are still here with us to impart your wisdom. I hope you carry an epi pen with you at all times now. Thanks you for sharing your ideas with us. I purchased your book in the summer and did a one day detox. It was a struggle but I plan on doing another one this month. Bless you and your work! Thank you Nick.
Thank you for changing my life during the toughest moments of my life. Sending kindness, peace, love, and compassion your way. Keep up the great content. You're message is being positively received! In peace, Branden (Columbus, Ohio)
Omgoodness so sorry about that experience !! So glad you are ok!! Nik I saw a video from a year ago n u were going home n I looked n looked for the follow up.. I’m missing it I guess. That video made me sad. It sounded as though u we’re done. N done for good n there wasn’t a video of your return.. if u have one please let me know. Very interesting.. thank u for all the free value n all the humble tidbits on how to be more peaceful n live a simple life!! N so much more insight that is priceless!! I am extremely grateful 😇
You are a very wise man. I found out the hard way that putting up with your own excuses and putting off your dreams causes catastrophic damage. Avoid negativity at all costs.
I've only just discovered you Nic, I am in recovery from alcohol, I've been lost for a very long time... This is the 2nd video I've now seen on you tube of yours & so wanted to say Thank you. I've a lot of emotional healing to do as life has been difficult as I have a disabled child which I dearly love. Sending so much love & best wishes to you and to all. Loretta
Thank you Nick for sharing your stories, by following you I learned that life is not that complicated 😅 I can make it simple and peaceful. Keep posting thank you so much 🙏🏻. Mabuhay ka!
As someone with allergies who had a much milder experience recently, I feel your pain. For me it is the underlying fear of it happening again, especially with things that are so common like food in my case or bugs for you. Stay safe 🙏
Venerable Nick, very happy you have overcome a dangerous challenge. There are no accidents, always nature is speaking. Sometimes we get overexposed to energies. But you have a long way ahead🌷 No 1 I have Learned is everyday cleanse meditation and that life is a process. It's so cold here too, I am at the park cause temporarily no wi fi, only in the park to see you and hear From you, Please take care of yourself 😊🙏🌷
Thank you, Venerable Matt for sharing your thoughts. Agree that one should focus on what's important, or the valuable energy will be lost along the way. Thank you.
I Resonate with everything that was said. I am doing everything what was said aiming for a end goal of a pure Buddhist life gaining merit along the way. Thankyou.
So sorry to hear about your ordeal. I am glad that you are back to good health again and still with us sharing your wisdom. Your message seems to have been targeted directly at me😊. I have been going through a tough time lately and I finally made took a decision yesterday on what I have to do to change the situation that is causing me such distress. Your teaching has just helped confirm that I am doing the right thing. So, thank you. 🙏
Always appreciate your words&work of creating, sharing these videos. I can find myself resonating with your words, I am def. feeling a lot more grounded after finishing watching this. During my time studying for school, I often find myself easily being distracted by social media, admiring others' "glamorous" "happy" lives, and steering my attention away from what's important/goal. Then also, putting my energies to show others what I am doing is exciting, when I should really be putting my head down and do the grind. Thank you for sharing your stories, wisdom, and all the reminders, appreciate you greatly from NYC!
Glad you're still with us, sir! Also, excellent advice as usual... This video I can apply to a couple of friends and myself. Thank you for uploading and HAPPY NEW YEAR! :D
I am glad you survived Venerable Nick.❤️What a wonderful video. Thankyou for your support. Please keep up the good work. You make the world better.Namaste.❤️
I'm so happy and grateful that you have recovered from your trauma. I just learning about Buhddism and have only just discovered your videos and can't tell you how much they are helping me...thank you so much
Thank God it all ended up well with that terrible accident! As always, Nick, thank you so much for being so honest and sharing wisdom you've learned 🙏 Blessings to you and your brothers in 2022.
Looking at your journey helped me stay alive. I have a strong depression and Buddhism is something that make me alive for making something good for people. You inspire me so much. I wish you health and love from people
Wow!! That is very scary Nick. On one of your post this morning I told you I miss you because I felt like I had not connected with you in a while. I am glad you're ok. Thanks for sharing your story
Namaste 🙏🏽 Nick Thank you so much for sharing your story , I’m so happy that you are well and sharing your gifts with the world . Love 💕 The Buddha Cleanse. Just shared the book with my neighbor. Sending well wishes!
So much love for you dearest one. Your life intentions shine through and I'm honored to listen to you and cannot get enough of your words. Thank you for your life and your giving nature.
I just found your wonderful videos🪔 I am thankful for your sharing & simplified Dhamma teachings! Please include more of the calming surroundings & how fellow monks do daily duties etc. It is nice to see how they do gardening, if it is part of the daily work . May you all progress as you continue your lives as Buddhist monks! Please continue your sharing which is very motivating for us lay people 🙏🏻 Sadhu, Sadhu, Sadhu
Thank you, Nick. Your words helped me today. So glad you are well after your scary experience. Happy for you that you have completed 4 years of growing as a monk!

You are a very wise man. I found out the hard way that putting up with your own excuses and putting off your dreams causes catastrophic damage. Avoid negativity at all costs.

Wonderful. Makes complete sense. Thank you.
Death is not prejudice. Live your days to fullest. That is what I learn this year.

Wow. Thank you for sharing your story.
I've read your book and will continue to go back to it from time to time. Thank you 🙏
sadhu sadhu 🙂🙂🙂 thank you so much
As someone with allergies who had a much milder experience recently, I feel your pain. For me it is the underlying fear of it happening again, especially with things that are so common like food in my case or bugs for you. Stay safe 🙏
Venerable Nick, very happy you have overcome a dangerous challenge.
There are no accidents, always nature is speaking.
Sometimes we get overexposed to energies.
But you have a long way ahead🌷
No 1 I have Learned is everyday cleanse meditation and that life is a process.
It's so cold here too, I am at the park cause temporarily no wi fi, only in the park to see you and hear From you,
Please take care of yourself 😊🙏🌷
I'm so sorry you went through that. I can't imagine keeping calm until you got to the hospital.
Ven. Nick, thank you for sharing your story.
It’s my pleasure 😊 thank you so much
I am sorry to hear about your medical emergency and I’m so happy that you survived. Thank you for sharing all your wisdom with us. 🙏🏻
Thank you, Venerable Matt for sharing your thoughts. Agree that one should focus on what's important, or the valuable energy will be lost along the way. Thank you.
You’re welcome! Thank you so much my friend 😊
