    I’ll believe the first Buddhist who uses his real name. Just peddle your stuff as Bill Honkelfelder, or whatever the REALITY is. Then the whole bit will seem more real and less contrived.

    Buddhism is not a religion, " it is a way of life", if everyone were to follow his teachings, the world will be a much better place. Sowing good seeds as cause result in reaping marvelous fruits as effect. Giving away little would bring considerable in return. To help others is to help yourself. Constantly chant : Namo Amitabha Buddha

    How is it that I’m hearing a Buddhist monk talking shit on Donald Trump during a lesson on the 8 fold path???? I guess b/c there’s “right think” & “right speech” there must be ‘wrong think’ then too. Commies have even infiltrated Buddhism which I thought wholly impossible.

    the reason why people remember gross stories more than dharma stories is not a shortcoming on the person's part. it's because the story presents a shocking graphic. it's the speaker's fault, not the listener's.

  • @lmansur1000
    @lmansur1000 2 роки тому

    Third is right speech?? not right effort?? Did Ajahn Brahm deliberately miss: right speech, right action and right livelihood?? The eightfold path teaching here is not clear and kinda all over the place. How do these connect with the four Noble truths...etc... A lot of meandering specially for new learners.

    Why is it that people insist that men make all the decisions about abortion, when that isn't the case and hasn't been for decades? Also the one person no one is asking about abortion is the baby that they plan on killing. The one person completely innocent of all crimes and never once asked if they wanted to be brought into existence is completely forgotten about in the argument over abortion. Shouldn't the person who will die be at least consulted briefly on whether or not they wish to die before birth? If that sounds absurd to you then you aren't feeling much. Instead you're thinking about who might disapprove if you don't give the standard expected answer.

    What a great speaker. Awesome at keeping the lecture engaging and interesting while still getting his appoint and message across perfectly well. Certainly easy to absorb for anyone; teenage to elderly, doesn't matter. Universal appeal for anyone interested/curious in Buddhism. He's a great jumping off point. 👏👏👏

      Further. It seems somewhere along the way even he forgets ajahn brahm is speaking. Catching that there is a slight image to keep. "Ajahn Brahm" Oops. I don't want to get so loose I lose "myself" (This is being recorded) Just incase "you" are thinking "I've found it. I just need ajahn brahm." He does a good job of avoiding that trap. I will admit. His framing of "it" Is refreshing to me. His stories are like seed planted in the mind. "Pushing the wheel burrow is easy Thinking about pushing the wheel burrow is the hard part"
