Never had profound teaching like this in any other places before. Awestruck. Thank you Rinpoche💕
Anna, do you think this Is the full picture regarding the self, or is it an introduction to self-awareness or self-illumination, and that there's indeed more subtle aspects to self than the two Rinpoche describes here?
Thank you for sharing your wisdom Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche 🙏 would love to see a video of this with deeper explanation
Being truly alone with yourself teaches you a lot about yourself. You have no one and nothing to compare yourself to
ALWAYS WISE WORDS AND WISDOM
MANY THANKS 💙❤🏴
Hello Mark, when Rinpoche talks about the "luminous self", do you think Rinpoche is pointing to an awareness of both a false and correct view of self, views that we can understand with oneself?
Unundestendable but very intresting.
Love your stuff. If you would please go deeper on the luminous combination; that would be helpful.
I think I understand the Healthy and Unhealthy in themselves. Just some clarification I guess. Thanks for your work.
Namaste master Yoda ☮️
Thanks 😊
Precious Guru, contemplating my behavior, I think I'm in the first category... So I'll try step by step growing up. May I realize swiftly the state of luminous Dharmakaya for the benefit of all mother sentient beings. Om Ah Hung Benza Guru Pema Suddhi Hung.
Thank you 🕉
thank you!
Thank you...🌱🙏
Thank you for your illumination of the way, dear Rinpoche! My gratitude goes out to you and to all who support this transmission! Thank you ❤️
Can you please explain. It's a bit confusing
@@cheyennealvis8284 Explain my comment? Or something else?
@@skylersmith7 Skyler, can you explain a little more about what Rinpoche spoke on?
Thank for making these videos
'Thank you' or 'thanks' for making these videos
Just a reminder
thank you
The non-duality...real wisdom.Great video!
Thank you.
Hello Marian, why do you think Rinpoche is talking about non-duality here? I thought Rinpoche was talking about an awareness of both a false and correct view of self.
@@markemerson8399,the reason is simple.They are both part of you,not separate as he points out.There is no good nor evil,is just interpretation of our own human mind.They are one.
@@popescumarian2820 Doesn't non-duality carry the meaning of, where there is one there is also the other?
When you say, they are both a part of you, I get the impression you're talking about three things. So are you saying that the term 'non-duality' refers to an inter-dependent multiplicity?
Thank you, Rinpoche-la. 🙏 May your life be long.

Thank you Master🙏🙏🙏
Great video and ideas 💡 are there any examples that could help drive these ideas home? I'm having trouble fully understanding their relationship to the person
For the unhealthy sense of self, say the person believes they are dumb, inneficient or lazy and that those aspects that they identify with will never change for them, no matter what happens. That means it carries the sense of being permanent. On the other hand, a person with a healthy sense of self will acknowledge when they feel or believe themselves lazy, dumb or inefficient and know it is just a momentary experience and that they will identify with different things eventually. That means they realize those feelings, ideas or beliefs are impermanent.
Again, for the unhealthy sense of self, a person will believe they do not need anything or anyone to achieve or be what they want. This means they carry a sense of being independent. On the other hand, a person with a healthy sense of self will understand that everything, including themselves, relies on other things to exist, such as the food we eat that comes from other beings, the air we breathe that also depends on other beings for itself to exist in the form that is useful for us, and so on. That means we are interdependent.
Lastly, for a person with an unhealthy sense of self, they will believe that we are all the same, without any variation between us and in themselves. This happens when people talk using generalizations or stereotypes, for example. On the other hand, a person with a healthy sense of self acknowledges and maintains diversity and uniqueness of both individuals and groups, as with efforts to preserve indigenous cultural heritages.
Now luminous sense of self, the sense of self beyond self, includes all of the above, as there is a realization that we journey through all of these senses at various points in our life and to varying degrees. The sense of luminous self is there when in the midst of us experiencing any of the senses above we are also aware that the other, opposite senses are just as real and present. The experience of compassion is a good example. We may feel stuck in a specific discomfort or confusion, but we also know there are other experiences in our vicinity that we can reach for or at least assist in making happen as our reality.
@@alexp.s.4419 thank you for your generous sharing. It really helps to solidify my understanding. On the point of singularity vs multiplicity, I'd like to add something as I understood it a bit differently. In my understanding, singularity means a person sees him/herself as "either or", e.g. I'm either good or bad, either lazy or hardworking, either happy or sad. Whereas multiplicity means a person can embrace things as "either all", e.g. I can be both lazy and hardworking, both good and bad, both happy and sad. It means not seeing things in black and white, and the ability to accept complexity than to identify with just one absolute.
@@wancheng89 Yes, thank you for adding that. It took me a while to sort out for myself the singularity and multiplicity point and I still wasn't quite sure I had understood it fully. It felt especially challenging to distinguish it from the other points. I think there are many layers to each of them, and they cross ways with each other.
Incredible teaching, much to reflect on and I'm glad you shared your perspective because my understanding has also deepened!
I think the matter of our opinions of ourselves, positive or negative, is not the heart of the sense of permanence, as Alex P.S. describes below. I don't think it's so much about the characteristics or traits we label ourselves with. I think Rinpoche means, when he says 'unhealthy', more 'unrealistic' or not grounded in reality. I don't think it's about self-esteem or self-image. To my mind, the unhealthy aspect of the sense of permanence is more to do with the difficulty we have in accepting that our body will die at some point in the future. We tend to think of ourselves as eternal, unable to imagine a world where we don't exist. We know it in theory, sure, but to really live with that awareness of our own impermanence and to have that inform how we behave day to day (with more compassion, naturally), is not very easy for most of us. Death is, for most of us, a shock. It's silly really, that it should be so, as there is nothing more sure to happen.
@@sugarfree1894 I was just offering a simple, easily relatable example to help illustrate the point. I agree with you that your insight is a deeper realization of the teaching. Thank you for taking it a step further and sharing it with us.
Carl Jung's individuation right there. That man was a genius.
I like it
Wow nearly 500k subs. I remember when we had 50k. The master grows
If people are getting something they want, then I guess they'll subscribe. It's a good sign for the world.
Would you accept if I could prove you wrong on the basis of evidence you believe
I invite you to Islam
@@qalam8609 Yes, of course.
@@markemerson8399 what do you believe
need more meditation videos Rinpoche...
Fantastic 🙏🙏💪💪🏾🔥🔥🌿🏅🏆
The moment you realize and understand then u know you living life and life alone . You must know before you time done here. 🙏🙏🙏
This very Self is god in all true religion .many gradation of self explained beautifully otherwise we v animal n human god in every hindu tradition
Sir, please give some examples from daily life. Complicated terms like independent, permanent sense of self ,all these are unhealthy...what does that mean? and then what is multiplicity,interdependent ?..
I love your teaching but this one I don't understand I will listen to it until I do understand I guess
Hi Ken, I'm thinking Rinpoche is talking about developing self-awareness, two aspects of how we view oneself combined through illumination. Do you think that could be right?
🙏🙏🙏
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
💖
Took me years of therapy and meditation to truly understand the multiplicity of the self. I wouldn't take this teaching as the one and only truth, there are scientific approaches that are at least as useful as this one. Keep your mind open!
Can you please explain this to me?
Please explain more. I don't understand permanent & lmpermanent self
om budha guru rinpoche . How to get your vdos whole part. thank you rinpoche.
this is deep i hope one day i can understand it lol
Rinpoche mentions at 1:20 that the unhealthy sense of self is a manifestation of wisdom. Do that mean that when we become directly aware of the unhealthy self it is a manifestation of wisdom?
What does it mean for something to be both permanent and impermanent? Is Rinpoche talking about awareness of a false view and a correct view?
So many have such a strange sense of self. All sorts of illnesses grow in our World from a strange self.
Mike, for me, developing self-awareness is extremely important, as my own sense of self can create many problems.

Sir I want to start my maditation journey under your guidance what I have to do for that plz tell me the way
Hi Yongey Rinpoche, can you talk about sexual desire and how to live with it, with out action? thanks
I also find this to be an extremely important topic Duarte. At the present moment I use a technique of applying the antidotes to sexual desire. However I would also like to hear Rinpoche's views.
I have a question. Is known there´s a lot of schools and particular interpretations of dharma. So, is this vision of luminous self (a balance between helthy and unhelthy self) equal in all budhist lines or an interpretation of a specific root? Would be nice to receive an answer from Mr Yongey. But, I dont have this expectation.
Is this possible to check what is in me ? Like what kind of energy is at maximum level n which one is lowest or minimum ?
Ikut nyimak ya saudarakuuu,,,, 💕
We are the soul, the allsoul and the world is born in us and that's why we can create everything like the allsoul
I have an excercise for you. Breath in the violett flame, the light frequency and the love frequency 30 times per day everyday and watch what happens. Say it every time before breathing in
Do you think it is important to act how the creator would want us to be or just be ourselves? forget about eternal life or rewards for being kind etc and keep it real and be who we are?
🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🎂🎂🎂💐💐💐🙏🙏🙏
'luminous self' are same with upeka or equanimity?
As I understand, Upeka or dhyana are a state of consciousness which are qualities common to the luminous self, but the luminous self is superlative to such categorization which would exclude lacking such qualities.
untuk admin, kenapa tidak ada subtitle Indonesianya?
How can I contact you
Is he a tibetan monk
Yes.
Ignorance and wisdom
Inter-are
Everything is completely empty
there is self
Non self
And neither self nor non self
With no separation between self and non self
They arise together
Without one the other cannot exist
needs more explanation tbh
Yes, I'm thinking Rinpoche is talking about developing self-awareness, two aspects of how we view oneself combined through illumination. Do you think that could be right?
The Self is not a soul. There may be no concept of an individual soul in Buddhism but there is most definitely a Spirit- an Eternal Ground and that's what The Self is. So any scholar who says there is no idea of The Atman/Spirit in Buddhism is WRONG. Buddhism does NOT differ Vedanta in this aspect. The difference is in the way the Eternal is spoken of.
Hi
i did not understand that particularly video😅
I am more confused now.
Antonio, I think we can check through our meditation. Can we identify a self that appears as a permanent independent singularity?
I think don't use word Because eny language word making thought. Not feeling understanding of silence
We use words in the learning process, right? You have used words here for a similar purpose.
Yeah I don't get it lol
nihil novi sub sole
WHATTTTT??? I DONT UNDERSTAND
🙄
I haven’t seen your comment before putting mine….ah ah…and without knowing yours , i ‘ve put the same 🙄….synchronicity?….
Oh gosh. Please extrapolate further!
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
This explanation explains nothing. It just affirms that there is a self and there is no self at the same time. The true explanation is simply that there is no self at all. Why complicate?
Harmony is the answer, its not a negation, it's union beyond the dualistic conception.
Eddie, from a Buddhist point of view there's definitely a self that is posited. Such a self is said to be dependently arisen.
@@markemerson8399 Too big an issue to debate over this link, I have no idea what is meant by ' dependently arisen', but I would think that it stands to reason that anything dependent, and anything arisen would also sink back into what is independent. Anyway, it is my understanding that the Buddha himself denied the existence of a self quite adamantly.
@@eddiebeer4516 Eddie, I'm pretty sure that the Buddha said that he existed, and he explained how he existed.
Yes, I think you're right in that dependently arisen sinks back to mental imputation.
I'm not experiencing what you experience, so we can say there is self and others, right?
@@markemerson8399 Of course when we talk about bodies and things there is one and the other, being in that state our ' normal state of being in the body' is exactly what causes dukka ( incomplete translation is craving) which in turn then ends up causing all the pain and suffering, which the Buddha wants to liberate us from. The idea of I is only a combination of ever changing conditions, of physical and mental energies, or as buddha calls them the 5 aggregates. Like I said, this is not the place to try and set forth the whole buddhist philosophy. I would direct you to a 131 page paperback book I found very helpful in delineating the basic concepts. It is called ' What the Buddha taught' by Walpola Rahula. Best wishes.
nonsense
The only true religion you have ever heard of is Islam
Identity view.. we need to eliminate.
Thank you 😌.
