    I've struggled with binge eating for a very long time. The Buddhist philosophy that what brings enjoyment will inevitably lead to suffering is one of the only things that has actually worked in helping the way I think about food. The anecdote of once you eat the pizza you are sad because you've experienced loss is so powerful.

    Buddhism is life philosophy rather than religion. It teaches how to become peaceful, kind and compassionate towards all sentient beings. You're in right path! Best wishes!

      @Nigel1048 This type of dialogue raises an interesting point (I think anyway lol)though at what point does "the religion" become just an underlying facet of ones personal morality?
      "immutable texts and immutable rituals"
      Surely all faiths are open to the interpretation of "the outsider"? At the end of the day are they not just competing "truth claims"?

    • @DipayanPyne94

      False, Nigel. Buddhism is a COMBINATION of Philosophy and Religion. Why so ? Coz Buddha's Teachings were a Combination of Philosophy and Religion. The Philosophical Parts are the Topics like Dependent Origination, 3 Marks of Existence, 4 Noble Truths, Middle Way, Noble Eightfold Path, Mindfulness Meditation, Golden Rule of Morality, Non Attachment etc etc. These make Perfect Sense. So, you can't point to the Religious Topics like Rebirth, Realms of Existence etc and make the claim that Buddhism is Fundamentally a Religion. That's just Flawed Logic. It's what I like to call 'The Hundred Percent Fallacy' ...

      @@tantrichill192 Buddha didn't care about Prayer. I think we should only care about Buddha's Own Teachings. They are quite different from what many Buddhists follow across the world. I think people should only care about Early Buddhism.

    I’m currently a first year student in college in the epicenter of a city in America.
    I have no friends whom are in the same state as me, no family I am able to easily visit, no idea what I wish to do in life, and the constant worry of being stuck in this country doing the same things day in day out for the rest of my life, never finding long lasting happiness.
    It is through this video that has motivated me to try and visit the Buddhist center downtown sometime this week.
    It is through this video that my morning just that much less stressful and full of worry.
    It is through this video that I choose to try and try, and if it doesn’t work out then it will have been better than not trying at all and wondering if it could have worked out for the rest of my life.
    So, thank for this. Truly. It has made the beginning of my day much more bearable and less daunting. And for that I am infinitely grateful.

      How can the Buddha love you. He is neither alive or a God. You can aspire to live like the Buddha and feel love and compassion, but I don't know if you should treat him like a God. I may be wrong though.

      Yes, Buddhism teaches UNCONDITIONAL love, compassion, mercy and kindness to ALL sentient beings as such no one need to be a Buddhist to receive them [no need to be a member of a religious group]. We being humans extend those good wishes not only to humans but also to all sentient beings, the only teachings to do so in human history. As the followers of Buddha dhamma we are encouraged to pass on the unconditional love, compassion, kindness and mercy the Buddha gave us, and this goes to all evil doers too.

    I thought this was an outstanding short film. You must take credit as an interviewer for taking the time to listen fully and ask intelligent and thought provoking questions. I think that the art of great interviewing it to listen and to fully reveal the message that your subject has to offer. Interviewing should not be about you but you are the conduit to bring the subject alive. You skilfully achieved this. Buddhism has so much to offer the modern world as it has for millennia. I could tell that you were changed by this encounter but in turn the interview has changed your audience. I would like to sincerely thank you for that.

Tho I do TM 2X/day, I will incorporate the nostril breathing in my day. I am motivated and inspired by Kelsang's discipline - that he devotes so much time to deepening his Buddhist practice. And the joy he gets from cherishing and nourishing others is simply wonderful. I will dedicate myself to more of his teachings.

    His kind of explaining in layman's terms was very easy to grasp. The way he explained how by changing our view, we finally come to know that even happiness is suffering and that by changing our way of perceiving things we can always be peaceful was so beautifully explained. The example that he gave about the changing scenes outside of the moving train was very relatable

    This monk has found the correct life. He is so lucky than majority of the people who are lost their true purpose, true happiness in their lives. Thank you so very much for sharing with us this true life. This is the exact reason we are born as human beings to understand the suffering of life birth to death and escape forever from this dangerous thing called life. Because we born only we are going through all these sufferings. Buddhism is the only way out from this upset. Buddhism teachers us to identify the myth of life and escape from it permanently. Buddhist meditation takes you on that path....

    Sometimes it's being at the right place at the right time. And sometimes...it's just plain luck. As a.c Taoist Monk of 51 years...I start my practice the very first thing in the morning. It sets the course for the rest of the day. Folliwed up by an afternoon session...and finally...an evening session. Meditation is not part of your Life...It is your Life. 🙏📿🙏📿📿📿🙏📿📿📿

      Today Dreamer - Looking forward to your new episodes. Your enquiring approach when interviewing your subject in this episode drew my attention and I learned something.
      If you got time to know more about thaveda meditation - try the app ‘calm’ and key in ‘Mark zelinsky’. He had condensed the main ideas and included short meditation practices at the end of each session. I got a rough idea what thaveda meditation is about after hearing his summary. Cheers.

      Thanks Rebecca - please feel free to return for part two in a few weeks.
      I’ve recently put together a quick survey to deepen my connection with my listeners and to help me develop a resource to add more meaningful value to their lives. Might you be interested in filling one out to help the show?
      Should only take a few minutes :)
