Bodhidharma - "The Wake Up Sermon" - First Zen Patriarch - Zen Buddhism
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 кві 2021
- Bodhidharma is considered the founder of Zen Buddhism in China and regarded as its first Chinese patriarch. He brought the Buddha's teachings to China from India in 520 AD. While much of his biography may be the stuff of legend and his historicity is still in question, numerous early records speak of him (or someone by the name of Bodhidharma) as a wise and compassionate monk. Whether or not he was ever a living person, the legend of Bodhidharma has made him as real in the Zen tradition as anyone else.

I have studied Buddhism in depth and practiced meditation for many years and always come back to Huang-po and Bodhidarma as the greatest summations for "what-it-is". Your public readings are a great gift to all of us. Thanks so much.
Right on!
Bodhidharma and Nagarjuna freed me
So…. What is it?
As said by some artists, if you have to ask what it is, you'll never know. I have had students ask me for answers when there are no answers. For me, the act of breathing, the practice of breath meditation is everything. I have found that letting go of conditioned mental constructs is pleasant. Even letting go of Buddhism. That's what Huang-po is all about. @@octavioavila6548
@@octavioavila6548 Ultimately, it is what it is. Thinking just gets in the way. Buddha mind is not the ordinary mind.
Outstanding!

I love this women and her works
So do I
@Michael Kean yup. Lol. Love you you beautiful being.
How many "women" am I? 😀 😆😅
@@SamaneriJayasara all of them 🌟🙏🌼
Yes you are absolutely correct, 2,3,4,5....can’t possibly exist without the one and only “1” 🙏🙏🙏
For me , you are the voice of a mother’s unconditional love ! It soothes my inner child’s soul when I go to bed with you at night or walk in the forests! Then I realize that I am also that mother ! Can’t express how much that means to me
🙏🌹😁
I love this comment! I’d been passing over these beautiful readings for a bit then this morning began listening to this. Everything in my being shifts immediately into a space of love and total acceptance. 🌞🌞💚💚✨🌏🌺🌸
Indeed! We are not separate Petra. 💜🌼
My mother left me when I was 7 months old so I don't know what a mother is. So I agree with you, only her voice reminds me of mother earth. Brahman speaking.. Very soothing.. I always prefer to hear these texts in a feminine voice, probably because of my past...which doesn't actually exist. 😀 much love.
As someone relatively new to Zen Buddhism - introduced through the Plum Village tradition & Thich Nhat Hahn - this playlist is a fountain of knowledge and an amazing collection of masters. Thank you so much for such a blessing
This body is at work, looking at the vast blue sky. Earburds plugged in ears. This soothing voice of Self (Buddha Mind). Pure peace. Pure joy. Pure gratitude...
I never heard anyone communicate like this speaker does. I love her pauses. It gives you time to absorb the message. Thanks to Bodhidharma also.
Like you I and many others express this. Her delivery is perfect. There is a tao te ching that i strongly feel similar drawing to because of the narrator….

To Giveup urself without regret is the greatest charity.
Outstanding wisdom teaching. Empties the metaphorical trash bin. Thank you for creating this content and sharing freely-
Living without the mind is living with intelligence. Thanks Sister Samneriji.
Many blessings to all. Those who understand and can relinquish these precious understandings. ❤
Woweeee! The highest Knowledge, expressed by the voice of an angel
The Bodhidharma sermons are probably the most insightful and beautiful of all pointing .
Dear Samaneri,
We can't pay off your debt for the precious work you are doing.
Love from PUNJAB 🇳🇪
These offerings are such a gift 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Emptiness of Buddhism is negative term ?
@@parth6115 not at all! emptiness is just the formless side of fullness ... .
Namaste thankyou thankyou thankyou infinite love light blessings to all
"Mortal Mind disappears, Buddhahood appears." 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wow!!! I was just thinking of Bodhidharma this morning and how I was hoping you would read from this. I am so happy with my 5G micro chip implant via the vaccination LOL! I can even order on Amazon without even typing anything because it already knows what I want 😊 and my phone reception is phenomenal, too!
😂😂😂 🤭✌
Funny 😆 not funny 🥴 lol
🙏Thanks a lot
Great sense of humor
This is so precious. May the cosmos bless you.
Oh the serendipity! Thank you Samaneri Jayasara🤗🌸
I feel like this is such an advanced teaching that only those at the brink of enlightenment can penetrate it and then become free. I think i will come back here at a later point
18:59 “If you understand anything, you do not understand. Only when you understand nothing is it True understanding.” 😊😄 - Some say, “To know that you know nothing is the beginning of Wisdom.” My society must be filled with fools (know-it-all’s). Yet everyone is ignorant, only in different subjects (most people do not know/see their own ignorance). Not knowing your own Ignorance is a great evil. ❤️😘👍🏻
So grateful for all the wonderful sharing of so many sacred texts that open the heart and point to Truth . You truly are light . Nothing but love and gratitude 🙏🙏
Thanks Sis ! ( ... strange to know that these are more available to 'us', then in current day China.)
🙏🌹

Empty of ego (separateness) = Full of Life.
Wow!!!♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️🙏🏼♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️
So precise and clear!
~I had a dream once~when awakened there was no one there including the one who was dreaming~
This is good for everyone but especially for boddhisatvas on the path as review, replenish and nutritious to the spirit.
Acceptance without any reaction to every dissolving situation also dissolves ignorance and teaches us how to recognize the language of understanding in silence.
thank you so much!!!!
Thank you 🙏
Understanding understanding but not understanding not understanding is not understanding
Understanding understanding and understanding not understanding is understanding
However, it is only when you understand nothing, that it is true understanding.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
Yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Prostrations to the wisdom of Bodhidharma.
Good to hear.
🙏

You have a platinum voice.
Very good thank you
Pure ❤

Samaneri, please more of Ryokan.
Could you do a video on fu hsin (buddha mind)? I would be delighted to hear for you.
Do you mean Wu Hsin? If so I have already done an entire series which you can find here: ua-cam.com/play/PLWzYrEdlV4O4i8fHqNOwXK9S077EA7TnE.html
Thanks you again for wisdom of past master from Sameneri jayasara Appreciate pinee
The Ancient One is wise to make Dr. Strange the Sorcerer Supreme.
People who reach such understanding...cure all illnesses without treatment
Such is the power of great Zen.
See this is my question Jayasara.
There are many people who say you can heal any disease just by meditation and belief.
Ramana maharshi was fully realised but still died from cancer as did some other liberated or enlightened beings.
I have cancer and I have gone through various treatments. I know people like Dr Joe Dispenza says cancer can heal just by visualizing and entering that field.
I have entered the field so many times.
Do you have any thoughts on healing Jayasara?
🌺
Hi Karine, I offer these words from Longchenpa for your reflection on this question of yours:
"In simply arising, forms are by nature empty.
From what is unborn there manifests what seems to be born,
but even as it manifests, nothing whatsoever has been born.
From what is unceasing there manifests what seems to cease,
but there is no cessation.
These are illusory expressions of emptiness.
Even with abiding there is nothing that abides...
So within the context that is never subject to transition or
change,
nothing strays in the slightest from awakened mind."
So then....forms appear to come and go - to be born and die - but all is simply illusory appearances within the ground of the unchanging, uncontrived Dharmakaya.
What then dies? No Thing. What is there to be concerned with in the Ultimate sense? No Thing
Ramana did not die from cancer - this was simply a magical illusion, a name, a concept, appearing in this dreamscape that we call the world and take as real.
"Ramana" - for want of a name to denote this manifestation - was not Ramana - his true nature was Deathless and unborn, immovable, timeless, imperturbable, unshakeable peace and reality.
Some of his last words were: "They say I am dying... but where could I go? I am Here."
Don't forget what or who you truly are Karine.💜
@@SamaneriJayasara ❤
It works I am still experiencing. If it works in miner illness it should work in big diseases.
I feel Ramna shouldn't want to heal himself.
Endless truth
Abandon personhood
Where did you get the artwork of Bodhidharma?
A quick google images search unearthed this
Nature doesn’t leave appearance and is only buddha nature

Is this an actual sermon he gave?
☺️🎨👨🎨👍
the use of the mind is interchangeable. mind is thaught. infinite space is described as mind as well. so you hafto pay attention to the underlying use of words, which come with experiance.there is no such thing as mind.bodhidarma has explained this.try holding the word in attention. then look into it dont use the word to arrive. seek it but dont think, for one second. then evaluate the experiance without using words.and you will see.

Black is white, up is down and forward is back, although forward is not back, nor is down up or black white or white black for that matter. For the black is forward and white is up, down becomes forward and slightly to the left. But not true left. More right depending on the gradient of black to down and white to forward.....
Be minefullness, but at the same time unminefullness?
My mind interprets no difference between this and advaita masters a la Nisargadatta.
...This is a delusion and my interpretation is empty of inherent existence.
