Nice talking
It's weird to have my meditation broken up by an ad for GoDaddy, ha
Also an Arahant cannot be a layperson, if a layperson becomes an arahant , he or she will have to ordain as a monk or will have to attain nibbana within 7 days.
What do you mean they will have to attain nibbana within 7 days?
Such a valuable resource. Thank you for sharing this!
You can opt out of ads
correct - not something we control
sadhu!
❤️😁🙏
Can’t believe there was an advert in this!
this is not controlled by us - you can opt out with a premium subscription to UA-cam
@@freedomofmind391if you want you CAN control
Satu, satu, satu. 😁❤️🙏 Thank you for sharing this video
This was being interrupted by several adverts, is there a way to fix that? Thank you
I can see how that would be really jarring. That is an issue with UA-cam, not this specific video--it would happen with any video over a certain length. The only way you can fix it is by getting UA-cam premium, which removes ads. I did that myself because I couldn't stand getting blasted by ads...it totally takes you out of the headspace
Correct - this is the YT business model. With a premium subscription you do not see adds, and you can actually download videos for offline watching. For me it is worth it.
❤❤❤
I have heard that the aged ones have a more difficult time with advancement vs. younger people. Is this true? I am 75.
Following the noble eightfold path, and with right effort in the meditation everybody can reap the fruits.
Perhaps you could pass a mike around during questions so we can hear what is being asked. Then the answers would make more sense. thanks.
agree - and we often try to do so during physical retreats if the situation allows
This explanation is completely amazing, going from high priority point to next one. True existence, well never heard before, thank you so much. Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu ❤❤❤
🙏🏻
🙏🏻
Brilliant meditation, please could you, however, remove the advertisments? They interrupt the sitting frequently, also on bhante’s older videos… ads really don’t to these amazing talks justice! Regards, W.
Hi - Agree adds do not below in such videos. Adds are not something we control (nor benefit from). You can remove adds by subscribing to YT Premium.
@@freedomofmind391 Thank you for your fast reply. The talk is impressive, very fluid and easy to follow! Best regards to Delson.
I'm really having trouble with the language used in descriptions when trying to contemplate and grasp not self. Like on some aspect I kinda understand it and on some like I'm back on the beginning. For example: What is being liberated from all this suffering if there is noone and nothing to be liberated? Right? It's all just a "process", it will be or it won't be in some period of time. And isn't wanting liberation from suffering also an aversion towards suffering? Why can't it just be experienced for what it is; just a happening?
It is an interesting concept indeed and different minds resonate on different words. There is a wholesome craving aiming for the end of suffering to put one on the path. And ultimately even that is let go in a later phase. There is suffering and it is being experienced and there I a sense of "self" arising due to the craving/clinging/being. Observing what is arising every moment (and how it arises) and letting go of the craving "the I want it/don't want it mind" and relaxing the craving that has arisen will bring more peace.
Can you turn off the ads that interrupt it? Thanks
you can do that by upgrading to YT premium - this is not something we control
An alternative would be to record the audio onto another device such as your mobile. Pause the recording when the commercial kicks in and continue to record when it ends, or edit out the commercial. You then have an uninterrupted 30 minutes guided Metta meditation. 😁❤️🙏
Can we make all those Dhamma salesmen on UA-cam who claim to be arahat read this sutta?
Arhat is in equananimous state with no attachment of physicality! It is a state of bliss!! Offerings to the Arhat is a blessing beyond in the giver’s compassionate and generous heart. The karmic action is in entirety of that giver. 💛Arhat will bless after danè: the alms giving (offering ) which will be the highest blessing one could receive.
I’m curious is Delson or any of you have experience of the consciousness that does not depend on sensory consciousness as its cause-an experience I can only describe as a divorce between awareness and the body-brain/nervous system. This is what I experience prior to the black out of cessation. What do you make of that?
Beautiful guided meditation, but ot was rather distracting to have a commercial in the middle 🙈🙊🙉
oh no they shouldn't monetize dhamma!
23:05 Nor sure what is meant by "failing meditation"? I was confused by the meditation object of metta because metta cant be the feeling aggregate as that is the result surely? Take the first jhana experience: thinking and evaluating ( the meditation theme/object) with joy and happiness (mental and bodily feeling). So the thinking and evaluation is the active aspect and the piti/sukha is the result. The theme of metta itself must then be composed of directed thought, evaulation, intention and attention in the first jhana. The essentional aspect of metta must be intention itself in that case which we can also see expressed as non-ill will as a factor of Right Intention in the Noble Eigthfold Path. We can see from this how skilful kamma (intention) gives rise to pleasant feeling with immediate result. “There was the case where Sāriputta-quite secluded from sensuality, secluded from unskillful qualities-entered & remained in the first jhāna: rapture & pleasure born of seclusion, accompanied by directed thought & evaluation. Whatever qualities there are in the first jhāna-directed thought, evaluation, rapture, pleasure, singleness of mind, contact, feeling, perception, intention, consciousness, desire, decision, persistence, mindfulness, equanimity, & attention-he ferreted them out one after another. " MN 111
Thank you, this is the best observation meditation on the aggregates I have come across. The detail instructions are extremely helpful in helping me understand how to approach the aggregates in an applicable practical way. Much appreciated 🙏🏼
Hello thank you for sharing, I don't know if you know there are adverts in the middle of the video that prevent the meditation being as beneficial at least for a beginner like me
thanks for your message. Note the adverts are not in the video, but inserted by YT. You can upgrade to a paid YT subscription and you will have no adds (in any video). Hope that helps
Sadly there are commercials in this meditation.
