I used to clean buildings years back. I had an mp3 player filled with Thich Nhat Hanh and Osho and I would listen to it and make an attempt to be in the present moment while I cleaned. I had many break throughs all those nights alone with great teachers I wouldn't say I attained to any level other than seeing the great mountain I must climb to make it through this illusion but I will forever be grateful for the time I spent listening.
I just bought a book called "The Imitation of Christ". The front cover is a picture of Jesus, sitting on a rock, meditating. I think it is clear to see that stillness and peace are the way, but it is easier said than done. I will continue to try my best. Rest in Peace, Thay. You continue to teach us even now.
I had an experience of instantaneous transmission while walking. I was walking mindfully from the parking lot to work. I passed a worker on a break. He called me after I passed and said, "I want to have whatever you have. I have so many problems." I briefly explained to him how to walk and to say the words Thay taught in this video.
I’m in my room at the VA Cancer Clinic Seattle receiving my 4th infusion of chemotherapy for Non Hodgkins Lymphoma DLBCL : “ I have arrived…. I am home, In the here and the now. “
Thank you, Plum Village, for keeping his lectures and teachings continued. Many lives will hear them and read them hundreds of years from now🙏🏽💗🙏🏽Blessings and love for all
When you cry in this way, or even in sorrow, or truly laugh from the belly, That's something coming loose within your body/unconscious mind, where all the neuroses/complexes/traumata are held. It's wonderful - it happens to me often! ❤
My dearest Thay, you are the calm to my storm . Your words , your voice , your smile and just the aura of your presence is so so divine ! I hope god blesses you an eternity of life . You touched my life in so many ways and i cant be grateful enough! I love you so much. 🙏🏻
My grandmother looks like him much. I can see my grandmother from his mouth, his eyes, his smile. Thank you these image, i can see my grandmother again
My home is The kingdom of God. The Pure Land of the Buddha. My home is Mother Earth. The here and the now. Thank you very much great teacher of me. Evangelina Cortes.
Thank you, Thay. I was suffering deeply being stuck in the future with worries of what might go wrong. I feel calm and at peace for the first time in awhile. I used to watch your teachings a couple years ago regularly and am remembering why. Thank you again so much.
archit misal , Plum Village has a Sangha directory here: villagedespruniers.net/au-sujet/international-sangha-directory/ and you can see if you can find a Sangha in the Plum Village tradition there. If you can’t, there are many online groups that join to meditate together and even to discuss the Dharma. Have a very good day, and I sincerely hope you can find relief.
Thua Kinh Thay, I have arrived..I have arrived home .. I spent a day of mindfulness at Deer Park Monastery 3/20/22 It has been 7 years since my last visit.. The continuation of your presence is still and always there. The Sangha exudes your continuation and your teachings.. Thua Kinh Thay thank you for your continuation.. “A Cloud Never Dies “ TNH 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
Thank you so much for remembering me happiness is right here right now: when I look at the blue sky, touch the Earth with my feet and listen to a bird singing. ❤️
Your teachings are the reachness of our world... I pray for you, wonderful soul.. Your life and dedication to the truth are our inspiration. I love you❤️👼🙏
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Deer Thay, our Venerable Great Teacher. In this first twenty minutes how marvelous is what you have said, I'm sure the rest of this Dharma talking is like a medicine to me, I HAVE ARRIVED, Love this words. I'll continue listening this amazing class. Evangelina Cortes.
Love Thay! I heard him in person at Dear Park. I also luv luv!!! Br Phap Dung's dharma talks because he brings a lot of humor to his talks! This is all great, and I practice it too. But I do consider when I listen to Thay and other teachers, it's all fine when you remove yourself away and into a monastery and speak of this. It seems to be that putting this in to practice when you are in "real" life is harder. I read a book years ago by Jack Kornfield titled "After the ecstasy, the laundry". In Jack's book each chapter was of a person who had left "real" life, often for years 10,15, 30 years and lived in a monastery or some type of spiritual community away from life. WHEN THEY WENT BACK, EVERY ONE OF THEM, EVEN AFTER 15, 30 YEARS of "PRACTICE", HAD GREAT TROUBLES WITH ADDICTIONS, PAINFUL RELATIONSHIPS OR BROKEN RELATIONSHIPS, DEPRESSION, ETC. It was one thing for them to "practice" this in their bubble, it was a whole different thing to apply to real life.
It's true. I used to live in the moment and can't do it anymore: have my mind too full of too many things, too many thoughts that at the moment can help me move forward. Being a Christian I have learned to BELIEVE in the path is created for me to follow. THIS MOMENT matters most and I LOVE nature more than anything else that God created. Being grateful is truly important. Thank you. Angela Italy
Thank you very much ❤. Thay is full of love, he is an angel for me. I am suffering so much, but if I learn this Practice of Mindfullness and I get much happier and calm. I have to practice each day.🌈🌞
As this video ended, and he spoke the last words, my alarm that I forgot to turn off from the previous night went off. What a calling to wake up. Gave me chills.
Thank you Thay. Thank you disciples of Plum Village. Thank you Sangha. I go for refuge to the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha. Blessings upon us all.
Dear Thay…where’re you may be I am sure you are within ‘the Kingdom of God, which you are and you have become! So many thanks for your loving eternal Grace…🙏👼🙏
Love you Venerable Thay. My honor and gratitude to you and to your Wonderfull teachings. Impossible to stop learning from you. You're in my diary life. You're in my mind when I stop to breath in calm. You're in my way in my walking meditation and much more. THANK YOU SO MUCH GREAT TEACHER. Your marvelous community of Brothers and Sisters around the world are honoring your teachings. I do my best in order to improve my life practicing step by step. EC.
I’ve been listening to his talks for a few weeks now and everyone of them is the same. Mindfulness. Here and the now. Suffering. In-breath. Home. Present moment. Also, his followers are the most coughing-ist group of people I’ve ever heard.
There is a video where someone is coughing and he comments something about how even a cough is like the meditation bell calling our attention into the present, into the body, a gift. Sometimes I think of that when I hear the coughing in these videos and I smile.
Thank you for your kind and gentle message. You speak in such an accessible way, the beauty of your wisdom is in the simple way you are able to communicate it. It is refreshing to find you and listen to you. It is effortless to listen and understand. You have managed to bring together the essential elements of freedom in Now. You show us the answer is in mindfulness and the breath. I am excited to learn more from you, but if l only had this one talk, l believe l have enough to sustain me on this planet, for this lifetime. Please except my most sincere thanks and appreciation. 🤗💕🌏
Constantly chant : Namo Amitabha, Repentance and Dedication of Merit. 南無阿彌陀佛🙏🙏🙏 Repentance All the unwholesome karma created by me, Arising from beginningless greed, hatred and delusion; Expressed through greed, hatred and delusion; I hereby regret and repent them all. Dedication of Merit May the merit and virtue accrued from this work adorn Amitabha Buddha 's Pure Land, repay the four great kindnesses above, and relieve the suffering of those on the three paths below. May those who see or hear of these efforts generate Bodhi-mind, spend their lives devoted to the Buddha Dharma , and finally be reborn together in the Land of Ultimate Bliss.
That is back in Vietnam living out his last years in the temple he was trained at as a young man. He had a stroke a few years ago and can no longer speak. His prayers continue to nourish us though.
@@svanderplas8289 Oh! Oh! I had no idea. I believed he was in France, imagined him under fresh plum blossom. I too thought one day I would be there and see him. What you say makes his teaching even more powerful. But it will take me a while to take it in. Thank you.
Basis of Budhism is reincarnation and law of karma . The necessity of Budhism is impermanence sufferings and concept of no soul . Budhism guides us to stay in human world and heavens until final stage is attained 🙏🙏🙏
Once again a wonderful talk but too much coughing? Someone mentioned they are heavy smokers but shouldn't people following this thought process not smoke?
Why don't you pay attention to the wonderful words of wisdom from the great Teacher Ignore everything else That way you might learn something helpful for your life
It is unfortunate that a sound technician cannot remove the constant coughing, laughing, talking, and extraneous noises from the adults and kids who seem unable to leave the dharma talk that is deep and serious.
i love these teachings but theres always so many people coughing on them and kids talking on it, hard to concentrate with the coughing in the background
Know you are not alone. This suffering will pass, and you will, in time, move on to a brighter future. Nurture yourself, be kind to yourself, and reach out to those who truly love you.
One person keep coughing at the back. If they're mindful, maybe don't go to the seminar and spread the flu to other people. Also the sound engineer can do better in recording master voice. Anyway, very grateful for the video.

yep, me thinks there's a story there somewhere...
Couldn’t have said it better. That’s more than most of us. Fortunately we can see, and that is beautiful in it’s own right.
💖💖💖💖
What the internet was meant for. For great master's and their insights to live forever. I just wish more of it were this way.
I just bought a book called "The Imitation of Christ". The front cover is a picture of Jesus, sitting on a rock, meditating. I think it is clear to see that stillness and peace are the way, but it is easier said than done. I will continue to try my best.

Venerable teacher, your teaching is so precious. I cry tears when I hear your words but I don't know why. Thank you for coming into this world.
He is the ambassador of Buhhda!!! Please read "Old path, white clouds"

When he mentions Mindfulness, is he just talking about moving with awareness and watching the mind 24/7?
Watch but do not suppress.
Very helpful ,, really excellent ,,thank youuuubut the cough of people is very annoying,,
Thanks
Once again a wonderful talk but too much coughing? Someone mentioned they are heavy smokers but shouldn't people following this thought process not smoke?
I have arrived I am home
In the here In the now
I am solid I am free
In the ultimate, I dwell
💖🙏🏻
🙏❤
🙏
What if you are in chronic, severe physical pain? How is this concept applied?
💚💚☮☮
Present
Omg, I wish the person who kept coughing would be respectful enough to leave the room! Other than that, great message.
It's not just one person. All of these videos have non stop coughing
Why don't you pay attention to the wonderful words of wisdom from the great Teacher Ignore everything else That way you might learn something helpful for your life
Can somebody suggest me video of him discussing about Vipasana.
I will never understand why the audience laughs at some of the most horrible things in this talk. Its terrifying.
It is unfortunate that a sound technician cannot remove the constant coughing, laughing, talking, and extraneous noises from the adults and kids who seem unable to leave the dharma talk that is deep and serious.

calm down, have you tried Buddhism?
PEOPLE who are not well are encouraged to come to the retreat to help them to heal and the children are always welcome 😊 ☺ 🙏 🙂 ❤ 💖 😊
I'm suffer right now because my boyfriend he break up with me and he seeing someone else... I just live in hell
Know you are not alone. This suffering will pass, and you will, in time, move on to a brighter future. Nurture yourself, be kind to yourself, and reach out to those who truly love you.
