After doing a hard task on my desk. It's nice to come to your talk and listen it's comforting. For someone that is not as comfortable around others it brings me comfort listening to you.
Thank you 🦋🦋🦋

Thanks Ajahn Brahm. You told this story (26:07) a few weeks ago at a Friday talk and it pushed me over to forgiving someone his debt which he hadn't discharged for two and a half years. For whatever reasons, I suppose he just couldn't pay it back. He had problems with others with regard to paying back money loaned. I exonerated him from this debt and sent him the IOUs with the notice that these were cancelled by me. I feel so much better, now. Thank you for that small push. Love.
Thank you for posting this.🌹🙏
Thank you 🙏 ! Greetings from Brazil
@@rgrocha Well, now I've just got to figure out how to do the other 2 fs. Forgive is done. Now comes to forget and then to befriend. I'm a long way off, but you're welcome. Love.
As we sow, so we will reap...
Unreal! Congratulations - very happy for you!
Love you Ajahn Brahm thank you 🌹

Thank you for this. Very timely. Nice to see the glass used for a different simile this time. Meditation happens when I let go and get out of the way by not trying so hard. I think I just had a breakthrough during this talk. Thank you Ajahn Brahm. Have a wonderful Rains retreat. Sadhu. Sadhu. Sadhu. 🙏🙏🙏

I love this guy!

//Last kiss: I'll never forget the day my mom called me in a panic "Janna, you've got to convince your daddy to get rid of that horse, its gonna kill him!". Major (AKA "Major Deal" as mama named him) was a young and vicious stallion when dad bought him. He "couldn't be broke". The men who owned him previously had used a technique to break horses that involved beatings and tying his head tightly between two posts where they left him standing without food or water for 4 weeks. Major stood strong. When dad brought him home, he barreled through five strands of fence within minutes of arriving and he'd Bite and strike at anyone within distance. My dad never broke him.... he earned his heart. Every single day, for hours and hours dad worked to earn that abused horse's trust. Love won and after two full years, Major allowed my dad to ride him. When dad would go out, Major would kiss him on the head over and over. They had a bond that only horse people could ever understand. It seemed only fitting to let Major say goodbye. This is Major's last kiss.
o my gosh, that's beautiful, thankyou for sharing pal
Don’t mistake kindness for weakness

Religion and spirituality are supposed to be exciting, not boring... the truth will set you free, not make you feel bad...
Muy sabio, desde Indonesia
Jesus also said: don't judge so that You don't get judged.
Where do we begin if not with Christ.
Hey Brahm! Thanks for letting me have a few extra bricks lol
Ubuntu❤️😊🙏
Most people agree in principle. But then the next day, they yell and curse when someone cuts them off in traffic.

I want to talk about my disappointed experience. I am Korean. I live in Pusan, South Korea. I met one monk who insists that he is a disciple of Ajahn Brahm. But he was't a nice monk. He was not in korean buddist order. And he was not a follower of Ajahn Brahm. And he pulled dirty money at a secluded spot. He was a fortune teller with various method. I want to disclose his bad behaviour.
Knowing his name would be helpful.

In Buddhism heaven is NIrvana and hell is insanity... there is a big difference between the two... most people fall into the latter category...
I'm a Buddhist from Indonesia. Excuse me, please let me correct this. In Buddhism, heaven is heaven (and we have many heavens, you can search about The Thirty-One Planes (bhuṃ) of Existence). Nirvana is a condition where u reach your highest stage of the whole life (the Karma from the previous life helps you to get into Nirvana and this is NOT an easy process. You must meditate to reach the enlightenment). Hell also exists in The Thirty-One Planes. Hope this can help your understanding. Thank you.
@@feliciaclaresta7009 It is me who helps you... indeed you have to meditate forever...if you want to achieve nirvana.... keep going with your meditation...
tough crowd bro
So could you call my son and reconnect us????
With all due respect, eating one meal a day is not from Ajahn Mahabu who live in Thai Lan , this practice has been 26 centuries up to now Eating one meal a day now in modern day we all time restricted eating or intermittent eating which has became the most popular diet for weight loss Eating one meal a day make you age faster? Sorry that is not what I heard from a lot of scientists say The Buddha wisdom already see the benefits of time restricted eating 26 centuries ago and now we just copied what he knew
How to solve world hunger, tell the starving to be satisfied with one meal. 🙄
@@honeyfungus4774 The Buddha wisdom has figured out 26 centuries ago you don’t eat after 12 am is beneficial for your health in so many ways We copy it and call Time restricted eating ok . It’s kind of delusional to try to solve the world problems, let focus on what is in front of you,
You need to search a little about how the original Buddhism eating habits so you can understand what I am talking about
….
Lmao religion goes hand in hand with patriarchy and capitalism
You should hire a writer to write new jokes for Ajahn Brahm.
Why did his wife feel that he loved her less by visiting the brothel? Is he or she not capable of loving more than one person? Should one be forgiven for loving? That is what happens in the conditional word of the human animal 🦓.
If you're married, you've promised to be faithful, unless you've agreed otherwise. So right off the bat, it's a betrayal of trust to visit a brothel. In Buddhism, I understand it's generally fair to say that focus on sexuality is to be minimized
Men who visit brothels love the prostitutes there? Who knew? Paying for sex is not "loving" the person who sells their body to you.
@@honeyfungus4774 Regardless it doesn't exactly comport with what Buddhism teaches is skillful and defilement-avoiding behavior
@@honeyfungus4774 they are not selling their bodies, but charging by the minute for temporary storage
