Yoga first, then meditate. The exercise and stretching will help wake you up and get your body out of hibernation mode. I also find it easier to clear my mind after some good exercise (doesn't have to be yoga). I'm quite a novice in my meditation, so maybe for a beginner this morning ritual is a good starting place.
Good to invite oxygen into the body between the vertabrea. I agree. Slow Prostrations can be flowy grounded
It’s taken me more than fifteen years to fully hear, to fully understand. Now, my practice begins .
I am learning so much. And, according to Buddhist teachings, I can learn forever. This, is my meditation object.
I had not done much itis a need to clear things are going around you. I am a spiritual person
The best teachers learn from their students. The universe is infinite and so is knowledge
Everything has its own cycle and sequence. Start at the beginning of where you have come to and let everything else be as it is. Speculation is a trap. It separates the mind. Exploration of body is real and tangible. When you are tired, sleep. Dont procrastinate. When you are hungry, eat your fill. Dont examine. Feel life in its own context. Dont read what others have written and attempt to make their discoveries your own. Buddha= awaken, to come back to life you have to let all impulses flow unhindered. This is difficult. This is meditation. The analytical mind wishes to stop the flow so it can examine it. This is why a person has fear. Best jump in to a river and relax, as its own nature will move you to safety. Fight it and you will drown. To be awakened is to trust the unity of all things in and out side of you. This is difficult, because ignorant people say otherwise, and you believe then. When the body is calm, so will the mind be also. Body first, then mind will follow.
Dave Reid - Daly Thank you Dave
Good recognition
Venerable Rene Fusi's lecture in this video is very helpful. Thank you.
"YOU KNOW" COUNTER: OVER 9,000
+Den Of Earth I know
+Den Of Earth Heehee... very good video regardless. Good teachings.
Den Of Earth the real question is, did you know before he told you?
Thanks for teaching about these steps in meditation which leads to mental bliss where the mind is fully calm !may all beings attain that peaceful state of the mind!
"how to sit"
lol, our minds are so chaotic we have to learn how to do nothing and simply be.
I watched this video. I learned/heard everything about meditation EXCEPT " how to sit, how to set up a meditation session, different meditation techniques, and how to deal with obstacles to meditation."
@Om Soha Why can it be dangerous? Genuine question.
He starts to explain the process at 13:46
Kenya Caldwell There is no correct way to meditate. Being present, in the moment, focused on what you are doing is meditation. Being mindful when you walk, talk, breath, read, write, teach, learn, etc. are all manifestations of meditation/mindfulness. You know HOW. Be present and be compassionate with yourself if the process. Namaste 🙏
THIS!!!!!!
Anyone else here who struggles with meditation, and quieting your mind? Or is it just me?
It is the monkey that is always on our shoulder, shouting and yelling and distracting us. It takes a very, very long time to learn to ignore that monkey (and to reach "Buddhaness"), so I have heard.
Dear FPMT :), I would like to say, thank you, to you, for taking the time, energy and effort to both upload and share this video with the youtube community. Thank You!
This is a very interesting description and tutorial on meditation....it sounds as though, through meditation, we can let go of our bias and false realities, and tap into our cosmic intuition.
Crystalline Cafe
Yes, Rick McConnell?
"you know" XD
Thank you, Venerable Rene, for your detailed and comprehensive teaching on one of the most difficult disciplines to master EVER, calm abiding meditation!
This video is awesome, the explanation of the 9 stages of Shamatha was great. I recommend Alan Wallace's "The Attention revolution" and "Stilling the mind" for more on Shamatha practice.
Thank you. I knew nothing about Buddhism. Now I have watched the first and second lessons, I can't wait to start meditating. And telling my family about the benefits etc.
Buddhism is a very lively subject. Meditation is only one of the 84000 Dharma Doors. Buddhism is an Education and is NOT a Religion. Buddha is a Teacher who has attained Enlightenment beyond words expression. Buddha teaches us how to live a peaceful, harmony, happy fulfilling life. Walking, sleeping, eating, working, doing house chores, interacting with people starting from our own family, then friends, colleagues, companies, organizations, states, countries, eventually universal, Buddha's teachings are present and can be practiced and cultivated, if everyone practices according to Buddha's teachings in everyday life, this world can be a very blissful place for every sentient being. 🙏🙏🙏Namo Amitabha Buddha🙏🙏🙏
So pleased that you’ve made this series available on to all online. Thank you.
Hello, sorry to hear about your injuries. Yes you can meditate anywhere, walking, lying down etc... as long as your are not sitting in a position that induces lethargy or too much discomfort. As in all things....not too tight, not too slack...just right. The Middle Way. As long as you can stay in that position and remain alert, you shall be ok. Good luck. Om Mani Padme Hum. :)
The monk who taught the 9 stages of meditation has good knowledge on Right Concentration but I think he lacked Right Mindfulness. That's why he isn't aware he said "you know" too many times.
surely the aim of these videos is to introduce in easy terms the basics of buddhism and if it intrigues the watcher they can then investigate more, which is how i became interested, i read a book about his holiness the Dalai Llama and how i decided in time to take further steps, small but steps non the less, i.e becoming vegetarien, stopped drinking, started by not rising to gossip etc.
so our mind becomes more and more stable , reflecting on these given
truths
Buddha's spritual one of greatest religions the buddism the 4 larger religion in the world's, On the path of the buddhist pilgrimage in north India and Cambodia throughout south- east Asia countries.
Question to the people in this Journey in a little bit.
Meditation is harder than it looks! This module is great! I took time & sat down, cleared my mind, and tried to still it. It is amazing how much nerves & blood vessels are calling there attention to me! When I focused on my breath, I felt like I was in a roller coaster that goes through scary tunnels & monsters. It helped my Dream Recall.
I got drawn to Buddhism because of the interpretations in Pop Culture (Cartoon avatar show) & the Tao lessons of Bruce Lee.
How did your Journey lead you to the teachings of Buddhism? What do you hope to learn from it? What kind of pitfalls would you advise to others to look out for?
Hi, as a young child I remember watching a program called kung-fu with an actor called David Carradine. I remember seeing monks sweep ants from a path because they didn't want to kill them by walking in them. It planted a seed to be "kind to all kind". Growing older and becoming aware and compassionate I became aware of the horrendous suffering and violent death in the meat, dairy and fish industry so was drawn towards buddism because it practises awareness and compassion for others. I am dissallutioned that u the Buddhist center I attend use milk and have a leather settee but buddism is the path I want to follow as it all makes absolute sense and is grounding in this relentlessly stressful world we live in 🙏🌱🌏
What is the name of the instrumental in the beginning?
Took me an awful lot of patience to listen to them saying "you know" in each sentence
...do you know? Besides 'Patience' i understand is a virtue.Seems like you learned something.
An Filioct Boct O Healuite I hardly think so, I just couldn't bear it and stopped
I struggled with this as well but tried to accept it as English as a second language,
13:14 that man has the most pleasant voice i've ever heard. What the"object" he is talking about?
The mind is most common
The object is the thing that you aim to focus on throughout the meditation. If it is a meditation on calming the mind like the one that he is talking about, then the object would be your breath.
One humanity
One heart
One wisdom
You know? ;)
Meditation is not thinking about or contemplating a subject such as compassion. It is EXPERIENCING it. Meditation can be learned but it is a process which this video does not touch on. It is not very convincing when a teacher or master concludes most sentences with: you know.
Happy Halloween/All Saints Day. What a placement right in front of me. I hope to tag along.
Hi Sky. Thanks for all you’ve done to help me. Terre
This guy needs to meditate on how to stop saying "you know"
You need to meditate on how to stop judging
I've chosen to be a doctor because saving people and curing their mind gives the best feeling in life
How does having to give bad news affect you?
I think my life has always been leading me to Buddhism. As a general agnostic, it isn't so much I think Buddhism is right or that any religion is for that matter. Rather I think it may be right for me. I know I will only get so far watching videos and reading and that I will need spend time with people to get a more complete understanding. I just hope this city has a community both willing and able.
Just started to learn about Buddhism and am so very excited about it. The only thing i wished is if there was a demonstration on meditating here, but I found a really good one on the youtube. Thank you so much for posting these!!!
I've really enjoyed this series. As a Theravada Buddhist myself there are some things that I don't understand about the Vajrayana path but the essential truths are universal to all Buddhist paths.
Thank you.
i have nothing but respect for Buddhists however that respect has faltered slightly now that i am being forced to watch this video for school....normal ass school...not a buddhist school no no...school..........I DON'T GIVE A SHIT I LOVE BUDDHISTS BUT I'M NOT ONE OF THEM I DONT WANT TO SPEND AN HOUR AND HALF WATCHING SOMETHING THAT I FIND BORING *sigh* again i don't hate buddhists i just prefer not wearing robes and having a shaved head....
This is very useful, but I wish he didn’t keep saying, “Y’know” all the time.
There's nothing cute about it. Maybe not your favorite dharma teachers have spoke of this, but I know of many who have. Examples include Dogen, DT Suzuki, and Shunryu Suzuki. It's primarily a teaching in the Zen/ Ch'an sects. The idea is that if you meditate seeking enlightenment that goal will lead to other goals and eventually your practice is perverted. So in other words, we need to sit in meditation simply for the sake of sitting in meditation.
I think I must be a very selfish person: I help others because I get a kick out of the positive effects my intentions have, and seeing other people happy. On the other hand I reject the kind of "help" that tends to create dependence. The tough job is to set oneself free first I guess.... Good day everybody
Why is it that modern Buddists always validate their techings by quoting Christ of the Bible, especially in seminars? It is a shame, so why don't they convert to Chrsitianity? They do not even know whether Christ was an enlightened person or just someone who loves God with all his heart.
Your comment "Rather than truly accepting themselves they preach"...then right after that, you preach about what Buddhism is and who fits into the category. Seriously, re-read your comment and it sounds a big hypocritical.
I am new to Buddhism (only accepted it a the Truth today) and I have quite a few questions about it:
-how can you be ambitious while at the same time doing your best to rid your Mind of all kinds of want?
-Can you love someone in a romantic way while ridding yourself of desire?
-What are the basic rituals that Buddhist Monks and Nuns practice, and what is their purpose?
I have more questions, but these will suffice for now
Wanting liberation is different from the attachment to the material world and its pleasures/ displeasures. Not only are the two very different but the former should be sought selflessly.
Romantic relations without self-grasping and lustful desire, I assume, would be built more on loving kindness and respect.
The rituals of monks and nuns can be found all over the web. Monastic life is rather strict as their goal of liberation is an arduous task indeed.
That's my understanding for the first two and the third should be easy to find from many sources.
My understanding so far:
You can be ambitious, you can desire for things. But you cannot form an attachment to these desires, or let them be you. I can love someone, I can lust for them, I can desire food and entertainment. But I should know I want these things, and I should not let them be me.
Using sex as an example; I can want to have sex, desire it. But I should not use sex as a distraction to make myself feel better. I should not form an attachment to having sex - i.e I shouldn't depend on it to be happy, I should not be sad when I do not have it. My life should not revolve around having sex to be happy.
Desire is fine, especially for the average person, so long as you truely comprehend WHY you desire. If you use desires as an escape to make yourself happy, and can only be happy when doing these things and you are sad when you do not have them, then you have become attached to the desires. Buddhism is about removing this attachment, being happy without being attached to your desires - you know your desires, why you have them, and what they can do for you, all without depending on them for happiness.

Have you read the 4 Noble Truths and the Noble 8 Fold Path ?
This is not the teaching of the Buddha or of the great teachers of the Dharma down through the centuries. It may sound clever and cute and, to the uninitiated, profound, but it isn't.
that is a good start....but ...I suggest you eat a few magic mushrooms.....and swallow some ayahuasca ...and discover....what you really are unaware of.
There really is life.... beyond..
I'm not seeing how "excitement is actually a form of suffering..." that just doesn't make sense because excitement is a positive feeling, like happiness. I understand how it fades and all, but even so...the yo-yo I get but how are emotions a bad thing? Emotions are part of human nature, they're like instincts. I can understand wanting balance, but nothing is bad, even suffering because from suffering comes will to overcome/make better. Suffering strengthens, humbles, teaches compassion/empathy.
Was reading up on it and it says excitement is a form of attachment that only ends in suffering. So it's not always a form of suffering, but it leads to it. I know that we"come down" from anything that gives us joy, maybe that's what it means? And maybe that the excitement is dependent on what ever it is that makes us that way. I agree about the suffering thing though, the most empathetic people are the ones who know what pain is like.
I agree no emotion is bad. Excitement is unhealthy (low vibration), however, but you will learn why for yourself through experience and this practice
I always feel weird doing these - like I'm going off piste of life and the way things are....scared I'll get lost or go crazy (if I'm not already)
how about sit in a quiet place and find out? maybe you'll find it. I mean, some things lose meaning when we try to give definitions, maybe this is something like that.
Pablo, I think the "chosen object" is whatever you want to meditate upon. Hence, the knowledge whether or not your focus is too excited or too lax.
So lovely. I also really enjoy meditation. ❤️
I have been loving a fair bit of Master Sri Avinash myself at the moment with my meditating. #sriavinashdo

these stupid people are so accupied in there own goodness, they make there own proverb and make themselves as God base on there own philosopy,and there own preconcieved idea, they are not medetating the word of the creators, instead they establish there own righteousness, not submltting in the righteousness of God, God will use the unwise to shame the wise, they dictate the word of men base on there own theology, No wonder even Satan can pretend the angel of God base on his own intellectual understanding who God is of these world, If we have the mind of the creators, we cannot establish our own, because we are created for His own good works, to worship our creators, not to glorify ourselves, we must be Holy by obeying the word of God, your life is not your own, The creators is the giver life, He gave you the mind of God, that we should not lean on our own understanding, no man is righteouss in the sight of God, you talk so many flattering word of man, these is what Satans want we can be like God,or make ourselves God. If you have the mind of Christ, base on the wisdom of God, not the wisdom of man, no man can inherit the kingdom of God base on his own intellectual understanding of carnal thinking, You will be judges according to the Holy commandment of the Law, we maditate the Word of God, because the word is a Spirit that gives eternal life,Many false Prophets will creep in unnotice to decieved many churches of God out of ignorance of the truth, flat out right they will suppress the truth with a lie, God wants to save all His creation, But atlist I did not avoid to tell you the truth, I can be good of my own, but I'm not, I just rely on my God who gave me life, and understanding of the truth to share the true gospel of our Lord Christ Jesus, who is the Son of the living God, May God Bless those who seek Him.
Teach children morals, and protect them, but when we adults make them believe that we know God or enlightenment any better than them, I feel sad.
we need to control our mind but what are we gonne use to control mind? r we using the same mind to control our mind? very confusing....
Seven Hunter, be civilized, don't be stupid. if it is not the teaching of Buddha, you have to tell what the teachings of Buddha is.

To all spiritual students, you might sometime not see the progress but don't give up. It 's just you being on the very long long path,but someday you'll get to the end that your mind free from suffering and find the real peace. No one can do for you but only you.🙏🙏🙏
All organized religion, including Buddhism, separates one from God which is "within" us all. How to meditate? Sit, wait. that's all. What will be given to you is from God and no teaching can explain it.
2 ways! - the grace of God or just practice and practice! Best regards.
And what does tue nature really means? Everyone uses this cliche, but they canot tell what it is.
yeah true, but exercise stimulates the body and mind.. you can feel very euphoric after an intense run or work out. Of course some people have perfection problems, and take things to the extreme. I bet she is comfortable as she is
Sweet-hearted one, meditate on knowing and not knowing, existing and not existing. Then leave both aside that you may Be.
I bet most of the women in the audience chose to meditate on Richard Gere in the front row.
Haha!
the grandmothers in the audience, maybe...
I laugh more than I should! some truth there but he is still handsome ;)
I'd give two thumbs up but it only lets me agree once
I’m new to this. But more interested in this than other religions. I’m trying to learn now because everything I’ve learned about Buddhism seems right to me. I’m a white person from America so it’s not a widely accepted ideology where I’m from and I don’t understand why. It seems this would be a widely accepted ideology or religion.
I wish you all the best. I’m going to keep learning. For now I need to learn how to meditate.
My name is Tony. I use this page on TH-cam for a woodshop I have. First Fourteen designs is my business. I promise it’s not spam. Lol
The title should be : discovering Tibetan culture ! Which has some buddhism in it.
Thank you to those leaving helpful and positive comments. Spirituality and religion is deeper than skin color. To group people together is sad/not right. we're all one, the same, and we're also individuals.
Amanda Vadon I agree with you. Have you heard the old, ironic saying, "You're unique, just like everybody else."? It's a favorite of mine.
What saddens me is how many people turn to (any) religion, including Buddhism as a crutch. Rather than truly accepting themselves, working from within, they project their failures into a religion, obsess about it and preach. I believe a true Buddhist in the sense of the word is a person who is confident, strong, never stops learning, helping and striving for personal peace. It is a person who does not pollute his/her inside with MEAT or any other processed product, doesn't wear animals & loves.
Sometime we do need a crutch to walk!, this is nothing bad. ..
all this yak yaking, when the only point (discovery then) is to realize how simple it all is.
The use of Buddha statues and images alongside a teacher is not appropriate. Your own breath is what you use as the tool to concentrate. Teachers must not bask in the reflected glory of Buddha images and statues.Those who have turned Buddha Dhamma into another religious "ism" are doing a dis-service to the great contribution of Siddharth Gautama.
+Ralph Rau Oh yes, the hatred and derision of actual Buddhists who worship and pray to Buddha by arguing they "corrupt" his teachings with religious accretions. Because Westerners can interpret Buddhism better than the natives, am I right?
+Ralph Rau I don't think I'm wise enough to judge, but it is wise to ponder and question the validity of using tokens and images and statues, I guess we'd rather have to see beyond signs and objects, and put them in their place and time (their context). I guess some people need training wheels, not that they really need them, but for the sake of growing confidence.
I beg to differ. If the image stirs oneself positivity then go ahead and use it. Better than negative thoughts. Eventually with practice all the idols can be abandoned. I pray you’re well and safe.

I am wondering how to give or do well at something and not have pride. It is always getting in my way of the joy.
If you seek to gain enlightenment, then you will never achieve it.
i think the idea is to create an anchor for your awareness.
It’s all me 🥰😁🙏 bliss health beauty of broken light kaleidoscopic interdependencies 🙏✨🦋
Too flowery. Calm down and meditate.
I have some bad injuries and cannot fold my legs, is it vital to do it or can I just sit in a chair and meditate
Yes of course! Just sit! Spine straight to be alert avoiding lethargy

Hello FPMT I'm translating from English to Italian all the 13 episodes, I hope to do something you like, I wanted to let you know because I don't want to take a strike from you tube..., you are the copyright holders, and I don't do it for fame or money but to help people like me who are sick, I hope you understand me...., the amount of work there is so much to do, can I ask you a question? the 13 episodes in the DVD at the time had already been translated into Italian? if the answer is yes... can you get me the translation? I'll take care of the editing... Thank you very much.
If you contact the FPMT Education services to ask this: fpmt.org/fpmt/iofstaff/joona-repo/
I consider a healthy body necessary to support a healthy mind, unlike views expressed here. Too much talk. Don't agree that excitement is suffering because not calm. Good insight into 9 stages of calm abiding. Video was too long.
Venerable Rene keeps mentioning an object in meditation.. and to hold onto that object and focus on it and such without being too excited or too lax... but is that literal? Like.. is my goal of meditation to be able to think about, say, a grilled cheese sandwich for 10 minutes and feel nothing about it? If that's the case, is it better to think about something that gives positive feelings (like grilled cheese) or something that gives negative feelings (like throwing up)?
just think the first day you born in this world how is your mind
isn't it empty.
stop thinking about the past because the past all ready finished we cant change or get the same feelings like such as .stop thinking about the future because its just a dream our life is not sure we can die in next second ,present moment present second is the real life .
and stop thinking about others, first u have to find out your self.
look out what kind of thouｇｈts are coming to your mind.when it enter , how it enter understand and forget one by one for ever
empty your mind
in this situation your totally thought less
your mind is very power full, then god can hear your thoughts god will show you the path to heaven,
don't be hurry be patience god will protect you
buy the way some herbs cannot disappear until the end of world.
What book is Venerable Rene Feusi reading from? Does anyone know?
I've been studying Buddhism and I'm currently trying to find some new books to read. Thank you for the response.
Cody Layne You might wish to read accurate translations of the original doctrinal scriptures.
sadu sadu sadu
What is this object?
+Why bother? it can be everything but usually they take the breath as object and they meditate on it
Breathing.
Personal trainer needed ... I want to see more
Okay, I'm a bit confused. Was the gentleman translating for His Holiness, or was he speaking for himself?
You are giving a philosophical answer and a personal opinion that has nothing to do with Buddhism. Watch 'Module 3' in this series @2:40 and you will understand that the forces behind Buddha's enlightenment were (helping others and achieving ultimate freedom).
You are mistaken by considering helping others a "desire" because helping others is a realization that the individual self is meaningless alone unless it was connected to everyone and everything else.
Although you have a noble thought of helping others, the only way to acheive enlightenment is not to have any desires, even the desire of helping others.
Helping others creates good karma, which keeps you entangled in this drama of samsara. Enlightenment is to get rid of samsara, both good and bad karma. So you need to come to a point where your ego is completely dropped and you are one with the supreme consciousness and good things flow through you without your ego even aware of doing such act.
there's the absolute truth, it is what it is, we use the relative truth to understand the absolute, we arent born as a buddha but have buddha nature, wich is clear light empitiness. So one must try to be aware of the truth, over and over again, with the knowledge of impermanence, the shortcommings, the understanding of the law of consequence, and having a precious human birth we can perfect ourselves, using the relatve truth
Buddhism teaches morals. Most people, regardless of religion or lack of do protect their children. Comparing god to enlightenment is comparing hand grenades to apples. To minimize suffering is in the best interest of everyone, including children. If someone is enlightened and can teach others how to minimize suffering, it makes me pleased, not sad.
Thank you very much for the enlightenment. 🙏🙏🙏Namo Amitabha Buddha🙏🙏🙏
The forces behind buddha's enlightenment was a strong drive to understand the true nature of reality and achieving ultimate freedom.To achieve that, he was fiercely meditating, torchering his body till he realized the middle path. Once he achieved enlightenment, he was so peaceful and content.Compassion and Love and Peace were the outcomes of achieving enlightenment.I know the point i made in my previous message. Enlightenment is a path that no one can take for others how much you care and love.
I disagree, meditation can be taught, If I didn't learn "how to" meditate and sat and wait, I'd turn into an insane old man. It took the Buddha many years to understand his mind. Centuries before Freud wrote about the unconscious or subconscious mind. Buddha was the greatest shrink of his time. Meditation takes practice, like hitting a curve ball.....there are as many paths as there are people.
Physical matter is real, so now is matter and not now is not matter(not real), in other words "if it's not now it's doesn't matter"
