- Matthieu Ricard is a Buddhist monk who left a career in cellular genetics to study Buddhism in the Himalayas over forty-five years ago. He is an internationally bestselling author and an active participant in the current scientific research of the effects of meditation on the brain. He lives in Nepal and devotes most of his time to 140 humanitarian projects in Tibet, Nepal and India.
In Meng’s words, Matthieu is a true gem in this world. He may be the world's best bridge between modern science and ancient wisdom.
Matthieu introduces the concept of meditation and leads a practice that includes mindful breathing, altruistic love, compassion, rejoicing and impartiality. He concludes emphasizing the value of caring mindfulness.
A session of questions and answers followed the meditation. - บันเทิง
I love the analogy of thoughts being birds in the sky of your mind. Just because there are birds doesn't mean you cant see the sky. Keeping this in mind while meditating fosters a loving yet detached relationship to your thoughts that was very help full in helping me be mind full this morning (a little bit of bird song out side my window made the experience even more pleasant).
True compassion must be based on wisdom and knowledge. We must know who others really are and what is best for them eternally. We often give the example of someone who gives money to a homeless person, thinking that they helped them. But if the homeless person just uses the money to buy some drugs, then we have done them no good.
Go out of your way to see people in need. This really helps a person to have a reality check of what happens in this world. We often don’t see this in the news, and often we do not want to see the suffering of others. But when a person goes to an orphanage, it is very heart breaking to see young children without parents. Or one can go to a home for the ages. We see what happens to the body when it gets old. And maybe no one is visiting some of them anymore. They often just wait to die. One can also go to hospitals or funerals in order to become more compassionate and kind to others.
Meditation starts at 7:00
altruistic love, compassion, rejoicing, impartiality
the analogy that Matthieu use to compare sparks and fire with hate and violence it was incredible. Thanks for sharing this amzing content. :D
Love the Blue Ocean thinking of growing the pie when it comes to compassion for all & the visual of thought as a bird in the sky. Well done! Loving Kindness Meditation may indeed be the longterm solution for peaceful & satisfying existence for everyone!
altruistic love: wishing good to that child
compassion: have compassion with a dictator. He suffers too.
rejoicing: think of someone who inspires us or meaningful to us, be thankful
impartiality: radiant love, love everyone.
Meditation : meditate, thoughts come , let it go, dont judge ourself, observe it. like a bird flies in the sky through our view. Once it passes, the sky is still there. nothing changes.

Compassion counters anxiety. Once you get it on tap all social anxiety is just a useful problem to solve
words don't work for me either, i just do it lol
but right now i've been meditating all day every day for maybe 3-4 days when i'm not studying and i keep forgetting to eat, don't care what i eat, etc.... doing all sorts of them. Flipping channels all the time. Need to keep it up, it will go away one morning when i decide not to start

Such a clear and relatable talk, and a nice balance between talk and meditation, and between wisdom and scientifically-based understanding. I meditated while listening to this, with Stijn Hüwel's 'Tomodachi' in the background - made for a beautiful experience! (v.v)

19-11-2020 05:29:30.........At 24:21/39:23 it starts with the people......If I may ask :::: but people are diverse , even your Nyingma tradition had people with diverse views-outlook .Then people hierarchy - people are organised into nations etc . Then powerful nations like to control , maybe even use "compassion" as an excuse to exert control . Like in Tibetan Buddhism the "wrathful compassion" - the "violent side of compassion". Any comments on this , please ? Then even in Tibetan Buddhism itself , how was "compassion utilized and weaponized"? It would be nice to have Matthieu's (Konchog Tendzin , is it?) answer / take on this ? And now as at 19-11-2020 05:38:20 and counting how is compassion to be properly put into action amid a covid-19 pandemic and blame game?.......Also how is it compassion when Tibetan Buddhist figures commit abuses e.g. sexual abuse and "possible manipulations of the tulku system" ? Or is this a "Tibetan brand of compassion" . Yeap branding , so what sort of brand of compassion etc. ? Again there will be diverse brands of compassion ......A specific "closer to Matthieu" Tibetan example for Matthieu.....Your own guru the previous Dilgo Khyentze-how did Dilgo Khyentze "handle with compassion" the alleged abuses of Osel Tendzin and Chogyam Trungpa ?

12:33 - Bloody dictators
What killed 6 million every year?
This is still derived from the idea that the mind is a kind of computer. And if that's so, one could 'reprogram' it. It's a popular thought, of course, in this day and age. Still, I wonder whether it's true and therefore if these 'tools' and methods will work. It might not be more valuable than self-hypnosis or forcing yourself to think 'positive thoughts'.
Try it for 6 months. Come back and tell us if you can shape your mind :-)
+Buon Di the science behind it is sound, look up the experiments done by the same guy with neurologists.
Tv, news and all media shape your mind everyday, why meditation won't
do nit?
Buon Di i assume ...you talk as tho you have not tried?
A passive aggressive person might not always show that they are angry or resentful. They might appear in agreement, polite, friendly, down-to-earth, kind and well-meaning. However, underneath there may be manipulation going on - hence the term "Passive-Aggressive". Here is still manipulation going on... you "wish" good and compassion and hope to change, take control, manipulate through "magical thinking" The other option is having the mind of a psychopath detached from emotional involvement and indifference, feeling numb and disconnected.
Magical thinking if you know it's magical does not matter. It's intent that you are cultivating that does. That will actually make you feel and do better things.

i not sure teaching meditation as saying ''let ideas pass as they come'' is a good way to teach. Because you can have ideas that says ''my back hurts'' for instance, ideas that are vital and need a reaction. In opposition with more mondaine or random thoughts.
so i'm not sure every idea is to be treated the same way. and it would seemed imprecise and incomplete to see every thoughts as ''one bird''...
quite unsatisfaying.
if your back hurts you can move it without really thinking
Fair question but I think since most thoughts are not facts or not true (and by following them or buying into them can lead to pain, anxiety, dissatisfaction etc) then its a better rule of thumb then the other way around....the take every single one of our thoughts as true (until proven otherwise). There is indeed a skill in terms of recognizing what is actually a fact/trueness in thoughts (eg my back hurts). But those I think are generally readily obvious, not fleeting or meaningless chatter type thoughts that mindfulness tries to just observe in awareness.
All thoughts are impermanent that is the point of meditation. It has nothing to do with what the thoughts mean or weather you should respond to them. They are all fleeting, and the point is to recognize this. If you are sitting and you think "my back hurts", and you attach to it, you're no longer fully aware, because you have identified with the thought, which is partial. Being in meditaiton means being in a non-conceptual state of mind.
