Points I've learned from this video: 1.) Start slow, much like how old cow pees, haha. 2.) Not every meditation is the same. Embrace it. 3.) Practice small as well, like drops of water falling into big container. In the end, it'll accumulate. 4.) Formal practice of meditation: plan it in your day; 10 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. 5.) Informal practice of meditation: meditate anywhere as you go on with your day. 6.) Let go of expectation of what sort of meditation you'll have. That expectation itself might be problem and lead to you to stop meditating. 7.) "I will try my best to meditate". Use this approach when you do meditation. 8.) "It's okay if my meditation is not good. It's about the practice, not the result." 9.) Have balance: trying your best, but also not too lose in the practice. 10.) Meditation is impermanent. It'll fluctuate. 11.) In the end, it'll be something big, steady, and endless. But until that, we must practice to get there. 12.) Progress of meditation sometimes cannot be felt immediately. But you'll see progress. 13.) It's OK to feel like you haven't improved, though. 14.) Don't expect too much. 15.) Do it bit by bit. 16.) Do it formally and informally. 17.) Don't fixate your mind on the experience. 18.) Step by step, just do your best to meditate.
Azar Subs same, pretty severe stuff. Since believing more in Buddhism, I’m starting to believe that I can truly overcome much of this mental torment. Peace to you.
El lobo I feel you mate. I also suffer from OCD, tho I'm quite happy now, because I've had harder times with it. I've tried to meditate, but stopped due to high expectations and inconsistency. Starting again. Meditation will help you observe the intrusive thoughts and gain more control. Don't worry - you are not alone. P.S. Check out Sam Harris on meditation.
This man is such a treasure, hes one of the least flashy and esoteric spiritual teachers, very practical methods and simple way of explaining them. Thank you, much love!
Thank you. For everybody who starts meditating these videos are very important. Stay focused on the practice of meditation not the goal you want to reach with meditation (i want to be more relaxed, i want to be enlightened etc. etc.). After a while you notice you don't need a goal anymore, you just meditate.
Mingyur has brought me happiness since I have ever found him, it's just unexplainable, his voice calms me the best when I listened to him with my eyes closed. Such a bliss, Mingyur my happy pill
I dreamt of him last night in my sleep. He was standing, looking at me smiling happily, luminous. I saw him on the cover of the book in the bookstore, but I never had the chance to study what he taught. Now is the time. He is kind and funny. I will watch him more on youtube.
As someone who struggled with building a daily practice for a decade, YES! This is how I did it, and this is the guidance I offer anyone who asks me about meditation.
Universe knows everything. What a right time to be able to get through your videos. I was struggling to find proper meditation video's so that I can be consistent with it and Universe showed me your video. Blessed 😇💜🙏💫
After watching his teachings, can’t watch anyone else, His teachings are so positive and uplifting and he is able to keep me focused on what he is saying
I think humanity is surfing collectively into challenging times in the next months. So I feel the Buddhist community is wisely preparing us to letting go..... 😊👍Thank you and lovely greetings from Germany 🌻
duration is human constraint imposed by our ego. Don't fall for that trap. Instead start to drop narratives in your head about who you think you are and see who you actually are, don't follow any guru (be completely free in your quest for true self awareness) and be present regardless of location or situation. Meditation in its pure form.
I wanna give a HUGE thanks for your videos. The way you speak, makes me listen. I feel I'm at a point in my life where a change is necessary and through a weird string of events, I've come across your videos. You are helping me and I want to say " Thank You"
drip drip drip fills bucket. don't grasp with high expectations. oak grows from little acorns. step by step. enjoy the experience, don't worry about the result. thank you once again. i do feel better with this video.
RIGHT NOW i AM GOING THROUGH HARD TIMES AND i HAD WATCHED THIS VIDEO BEFORE BUT STILL i CAN NOT STOP MY LAUGHTER EACH TIME I WATCH THIS. THANK YOU GURU_JI.
Thanks. It has been bothering me for so long that I could never meditate out of habit. I would be dedicated for a week, then stop for months. But just recently I got inspired by a post on Reddit about the NonZeroDay policy: it doesn't matter for how long you do it, as long as you do it daily, even if it's just for a few minutes. I apply this to my desire to meditate more frequently and I think your video is a great confirmation.
Non Zero Day. I like that. I have several chronic pain conditions. Not a day goes by that I am not in some level of pain. I also have depression and anxiety because of the pain. I started meditating in the spring and I found that it lifted my spirits. It can’t stop my pain, but meditating made my pain easier to cope with. I did it daily for almost 3 months. Then I went through a period of such severe pain it made it difficult for me to meditate. I kept trying but couldn’t get thru it because I was suffering. I even tried meditating while lying down. I found that distracting. I finally stopped after about a week of trying and being unable to get into it anymore. That was in July. It’s December now and I never started again. I wanted to but never feel well enough. My back has become progressively worse. My doctor put me on a new medication and I improved greatly! I felt like I finally got my life back and I enjoyed myself like I haven’t in many years. All of a sudden, after almost 3 weeks, the medication stopped working! And I’ve been in a severe depression ever since. My doctor does not know why the meds stopped working. And most recently my spine has gotten so bad, I can’t do much so I just stay in bed. I think meditating could help again, but I feel so defeated by everything that’s happened to me this year, I have no desire to even try again. I think if I can get a few days of meditation started, I probably might want to keep going. It’s the getting started part that is hard. Also, I was never able to sit in meditation position properly because of pain. I did the best I could. Now I can’t sit in any position that doesn’t hurt. I still listen to these videos every night before I go to sleep. I hope one day they will help me start again. Thank you, Rinpoche. I am still here learning from you and that’s good. Namaste. 🙏🏼
This somehow remind me not to have expectations rather I should have enjoyed the process itself going ...thank you so much, sending gratitude from Myanmar
Whoever is reading this now, remember: You are the light! You are unique and worth it! You are blessed to be in your body and experience all that is! Blessings to all beings! Love and Light!
Thank you . I use "Temple Sounds" UA-cam channel with singing bowls to help me start small and work my way up to longer videos, eventually using no videos
i am so happy to watch your videos guruji... please make more videos about life ...in this world and in this generation we need spiritual power to lead a better life... we are believing in you.. teach us and guide us for how to overcome all hurdles in life to living in a peaceful manner.. because world needs more peace now... #from india
To me the most important point is that the "meditation experience is impermanent' - your next experience is your next - the previous experience is gone - in the past - be in the present.
This is so helpful. I'm not new to meditating but I do get fixated on the quality of the meditation, and how I'm progressing. Actually rather impatient. This helps me let go of those false ideas. And to have a gentler, kinder approach to it and myself. Something I need.
I find your teaching very simple and usefull: an infromal appointment to build my meditation stable as well. No need to use buzzwords because meditation is practice. Thank you very much!
Bhante.. i am a Vipassana Meditator learnt From the Great Vipassana Teacher S.N Goenka in the tradition of Sayagi U ba khin. I think I'm doing this mistake Again n again ... expecting more...So thank you So much..May your All Parmis come full fill this may make you fully Liberated.
Thank you so much. It helps a lot. The meditation context : just meditate and not be fixated on the result can be use in other aspects of our daily life. ❤️ ie when you have done your best in school or at work or in rs, and don’t be fixated on the results. This mindset helps to alleviate anxiety and stress. ❤️
As silly as it seemed to me at first, the cow analogy really was useful. I wish I had found these videos earlier on in my spiritual exploration. You really hit the nail on the head concerning the disconnect between expectations about meditation and its effects for young practitioners like myself. Subscribed.
The day i will be in the lap of God, I will come to you to touch your feet and to thank you for teaching the world's best and sacred thing. I really was worried about my meditation as i love practicing meditation to find God. 💐 And you gave me a huge help by teaching me the right way. 😄
yes ! good advice ! i do meditation every day and some days is not so good with many thoughts who makes me stop meditation earlier because thoughts makes me tired to stand by continue meditation ... so sometimes i quit continue trying ... on the other side of my mind i say that maditation is parts like when the pick up touch the disk i meditate and when is not then not so all the music is parts and not all continue ...
im so happy to know your channel . I ve been watching your meditation viedos. for all day when i watching your viedo it makes me really comfortable and happy !! i think this channel attracted me !! thank you so much everything
John Kabat-Zinn speaks of this as well.... That you should not think of meditation as an eastern practice or something scientific whatsoever, but simply see it as a practice.... Thank you for the video, I got to a point where my diet changed and mind you this was not a conscious decision and I got attached to the experience....
It's always drilled into us to keep gong and set a good regimen otherwise the bodily centered mindstream won't let us make too much progress. I found the practices at Drukama tradition to be very beneficial this way.
At the grand old age of 69 I have just started to meditate. Mainly to try to still my mind which comes up with all sort of negative thoughts and I get very anxious and fearful also to try to bring down my blood pressure caused by my anxiety. I look forward to it and I think starting off slowly is the way for me ❤️ thank you thank you
Trick is, stop reacting to your thoughts and stop judging whether the thought is good or bad. Don't try to stop your thoughts let them come and try to observe your thought as a 3rd person, then you see the change it will be wonderful. Try to make friendship with your thoughts.
I don’t know if this guy is a Thai person but it seems to me like he is. All Thai people I have ever met are rays of sunshine ☀️ Thanks a lot for a wonderful video 😁🐘🎈💖
I started meditation after reading a magazine of osho, In the beginning I only did for 2 minutes but its really very hard to focus, sometimes I got headache after doing it. The main problem is , I think alot, its my habit to talk to myself alot, most of the time in my own world. Sometimes it is good but I am not aware about the surrounding and people around me. Sometimes I cross road while not aware of surrounding. now I do it for 15minutes but the thoughts are big challenge for me, . somedays during meditation I see dreams which doesn't have any clarity or sense, only aware that I am dreaming that's all.i don't remember those dreams after meditation . When I continously doing meditation, I started to like doing meditation, there is no need to force myself to do it and feel calm after doing it . This is the only improvement I had after doing it, I am waiting patiently to get better in doing meditation. I love this monk , he gave me clear idea about how to meditate.
I was diagnosed very early on as a child with Autism (asbergers syndrome), OCD, ADHD and a registered anxiety disorder. I’m 31 but feel Im still a child in my head, I lost my childhood through anxiety and overthinking 24/7. I’ve never felt ‘normal’, never felt apart of anything and never feel like I fit in anywhere. My mind and thoughts have dominated my life. Mutating with every day and intrusive thoughts on a level which almost cost me my life mid 20’s and unfortunately last year. I have nothing but negative memories because I’m in a constant state of panic and I can’t stop my mind. I’m riddled with guilt as I have a mother which words cannot explain the love and support she has given me throughout, including my other siblings all while going through absolute hell herself, she lost her brother at the Hilsborough disaster, her dad died not long after and 20 years of my very ill dad (insane OCD and Autism). Our childhood wasn’t normal by any means but she stuck through and helped us all. My dad is somewhat a different man now and we stay in contact through the respect I have for myself. He is in health and 60. My mum was diagnosed with a brain disorder 5 years ago and fights through another level of pure hell, she has not long turned 59.. I started Meditation 2 weeks ago and I honestly think it’s helping, I can sleep without anxiety attacks just now and the crippling fear of being alone forever haunts me not as much. I’m not religious but I pray I get through this. Thank you.

Good job brother... Keep it up.. 👍..
Thanks sir
Don’t expect too much?
Why?
Thank you
I suffer from OCD and depression, and meditation saved my life so many times.
Azar Subs same, pretty severe stuff. Since believing more in Buddhism, I’m starting to believe that I can truly overcome much of this mental torment. Peace to you.
That's exactly why I'm looking into meditation. Severe OCD sufferer. How long did it take for meditation to help the anxiety?
El lobo I feel you mate. I also suffer from OCD, tho I'm quite happy now, because I've had harder times with it. I've tried to meditate, but stopped due to high expectations and inconsistency. Starting again. Meditation will help you observe the intrusive thoughts and gain more control. Don't worry - you are not alone.
P.S. Check out Sam Harris on meditation.
Good teaching methard of meditetion thenks
Well done to you sir, keep up the good fight .om ☺🙏✌📿🌼
The most appreciable aspect of the monk's speeches is the simplicity,clarity and understandability put together
So wise, gentle and funny. He takes the STRESS out of meditating. 😇 Peace be with you.
This man is such a treasure, hes one of the least flashy and esoteric spiritual teachers, very practical methods and simple way of explaining them. Thank you, much love!
I am deeply grateful for these videos! Please keep up the good work.
It is a real joy to listen to his compassionate wisdom.
Aditi Sharma indeed but not many are aware of this. the word must be spread.
I watches sandeep maheswari but that's not enough I think this is best
Aditi Sharma yes
Ma'am Please Search For Vipassana Meditation... and get information about it..this is only answer of all human Problems.. tqsm

Let go of expectation . Try my best ~.~ This is so nice.
You have taught me much over the past 2 years. Thank you for your wisdom, insight and willingness to share them will all.
This is the absolute epithet of a 'feel good video', if ever I saw one! With one of the most 'human' people you can find on the Internet. Sic dixi
Every night I listen to sleep mediation videos. I doesn't feel sufficient but I feel more patient than I was before and much more mindful than I was.

Re meditation on regular basis ...
The 2 minutes you do is more beneficial than the 20 minutes you don’t.
Bit by bit, as Rinpoche advises.
I think humanity is surfing collectively into challenging times in the next months. So I feel the Buddhist community is wisely preparing us to letting go..... 😊👍Thank you and lovely greetings from Germany 🌻

I started Meditation 2 weeks ago and I honestly think it’s helping, I can sleep without anxiety attacks just now and the crippling fear of being alone forever haunts me not as much. I’m not religious but I pray I get through this.
Thank you.
