Each day I write down a blessing in my journal. Today's blessing was this sharing, one that was thoughtful, insightful, realistic and honest. I will remember Br. Linh's gentle wisdom for a long time and I am grateful for the monastics of Plum Village and the joy they bring to my heart.💗💗💗
A wonderful dharma talk, thank you dear Brother Phap Linh. Your clear and direct explanation of the practice's teaching is so helpful, and your gentle humour lifted my spirits.
Awesome presentation that touches so deeply on the "lived experience" in the here and now and then gives a process for how we can bring about system change and move to a society that manifests "interbeing" and the ultimate dimension. I will share it widely with deep gratitude.
On a fun note.... I think that was the most beautiful way any song has ever ended, at the end of the vid. Sometimes that silence is so much louder.... very powerful.
I’m 11 minutes in and THIS is a talk I have needed to hear for years. My training is in postmodern epistemology, and I’m also quite spiritual and have had a sense that these are both necessary for addressing structural and systemic problems, but couldn’t find interlocutors who could engage and see where this could go. I’m so pleased to listen to this talk and be inspired. Plum Village is giving me tools and hope and a way forward that takes into account all the things. Cheers!
Thanks from my heart for the beautiful talk, brother 😌🙏🏼 - there seem to be some deep truths in it, which I hopefully can understand one day, or perhaps I am already in the process of understanding 😊 - happiness is here and now!
Ahhhh.....so nourishing, intuitive, authentic and filled with realism! We need more of this. Simply offered, with honesty and integrity. I fully enjoy this discourse. This is why I do attempt to tune into the Plum Village discourses whenever I can. Bless you Brother. JJ
I suffer from being in despair about the current state of our planet. We are all suffering and many dont understand why and this confusion seems to be generating much detachment from reality, escaping and avoiding the pain and the confusion of not knowing. I see the collective ill being within myself and how it effects my state of mind. On days when i have freedom i notice the underlying fear that expresses itself as restlessness. So i am so thankful to see someone smiling with compassion when speaking about the crisis we are in. It gives me courage to try harder to be positive and practice sharing my smile 😊 🙏🤲🌼🤲🙏
Amazing. Deep deep gratitude for thinking, seeing, feeling so out of the box of everything and though bringing it back to the box in such an amusing way I! bow to your wisdom dear Br. Phap Linh. 🙏
This is such a treasure. Just amazing. So much wisdom and knowledge. Thank you dear brother. And your song is so beautiful! What a treat to listen to this
I love the whole talk, AND I love the song - I silently sang it for me several times during the climate strike demonstration in Vienna last Friday and the whole day made me very happy, perhaps especially due to the song.
Thank you so much for posting this.I was so hoping to attend the retreat but was unable to get a place . So very happy to be able to listen to this talk ❤
I've been looking for this talk since hearing it in during the retreat. Thank you ,thank you for posting it. Ph Linh's teaching goes right into the middle of my heart space and body and it gives me so much to practice with. Smiling with gratitude and love from Massachusetts USA
Dear Thay, Dear Sangha, Dear Brother Phap Linh: I am so grateful to be able to listen to the powerful words, the wisdom and love from Plum Village. For all that you offer the World: I thank you from my heart ❤ This darma talk is nourishing for our souls, and much needed contribution to the change that Mother Earth needs. Thank you, Brother Phap Linh.🙏
Thank You brother for sharing Your thoughts about the Ultimate and the Relative Realm. And for the Love❤Song that brought some tears of happiness in my eyes while singing and laughing with You🙏🏻
Thank you Brother Phap Linh....i am moved by listening to you, as i was listening at Kentwell Hall back in 2019. Very thought and heart provoking. I am thinking of my 3 yr old son and how to support him and othet children so they learn to live in harmony with mothet earth and act ! Xx
So much to learn indeed and the earth song blended in it all into peace Thank you for sanga my heart is full and less grief Love and blessings to all🙏 untill we meet again ❤🙏✨️✨️✨️✨️
Thank you Brother Phap Linh for this talk! Thank you for your sense of humour thay reminds me of Thay's sense of humour. When I smile, I remember better. ❤
So grateful for this Dharma talk,very inspirering... "How is not Now" And for this new song my heart is grateful and entusiastic! To all the monastics mille grazie from italy❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Funny how that's the same rethoric people like the onea in the Westboro Baptist Church use to justify acvelerating the end of the world - rapture is coning, after all.
I wish I could fully stay outside of my ego mind, but it just feels like forced cognitive dissonance. My whole life I’ve seen the horrors being done to this planet and what is done to each other and I just feel helpless and sorrowful, why am I here at this time when there is nothing I can do to effect change, to make things better. I had a traumatic and dangerous childhood, I understand animals more than humans, i died at three years old and I know when someone dies (at that moment) even though I may be hundreds of miles away. There is a lot of dying, this past three years has been a real challenge, please send me strength and peace, I have no one who could understand this in my life. Peace to all of you.
Peace to you! You have survived a lot. You keep showing up, even after experiencing these horrible experiences. Take good care of your precious self! ❤
Interesting. I do wish you all the best, and a continued healthy path through your hardships. I can't help but be skeptical though - how do you know "you know when someone dies, even hundreds of miles away"? Have you tested this? Why should anyone else be convinced of this claim? And even more curious as to your claim of having died at the age of 3! Would you care to elaborate? Aa you yourself brought these topics up, I hope these questions don't intrude.
Genuine and serious question: do you also hold events with unions and fighting campaigning organisations (like the one you mention at the beginning with CEOs)? Sadly the right-wing in Argentina (where I live) has deployed a superficial discourse of mindfulness and meditation, a Western piecemeal appropriation of Eastern philosophy and spiritual practices, and it seems to hardly engage with the challenges faced by people struggling to collectively change the world, which does involve conflict. Avoiding conflict is not possible in an unjust society. So, what resources can you point us towards in developing mindful (and engaged Buddhist) practices for navigating conflict aiming for justice?
I am so grateful to meet you brother, thank you 🙏🏼

Thank you for so accurate and touching words and dharma teaching 🙏
The sangha is like a mycelium network promoting well-being
On a fun note.... I think that was the most beautiful way any song has ever ended, at the end of the vid. Sometimes that silence is so much louder.... very powerful.
Thank you for sharing this dharma talk. What a beautiful way to end the meeting. We were singing and joining in as well.
Peace & harmony to everyone
I definitely think, “I’ll be happy when my trauma is resolved.” I’m grateful for the reminder that happiness has always already been here. 🙏🏾🌺
eighty-four thousand thumbs ups.

@@SoZen08thank you so much , your kind message will carry with me throughout all my days.
Try TRE to release the trauma in your body my friend, then you will be free and live in your body without pain 🙏🏻💕
@@Omlittlebuddha thank you so much my friend, I had not heard of this and I’m going to give it a try. Peace and much love.

Who is this new monk?
He is an old monk
It says in the video title "Br. Phap Linh (Br. Spirit)". You can find dharma talks from him on this youtube channel from at least 6 years ago.
I suggest people listening here to look up what a "deepity' is :)
"Ultimate dimension"... dude may very well be convinced of his beliefs, but... geez. Gullible-much.
*promosm* 😋
Too slow he talk... Bye
Thank you
❤️
