»A Witness to an Extraordinary Event«
[From the biography of Luang Por Chop Thanasamo "Ṭhānasamopūjā" , Chapter "Ācariya Mun Bhūridatto attains to the Dhamma-element"
LP Tui Edition) pp. 93-95]
Dear friends,
I get a lot of criticism using a tts-voice for reading my Dhamma uploads. I also prefer real human voice audio, but I'm not an english native speaker and felt that my accent would upset native English listeners. So since no one proficient volunteers to read it, I feel the machine voice is a great and convenient alternative to not publishing these great Dhamma gems. (I also used female voice here, since the author of the biographical narration is a layperson, for other monks teachings I find it inappropriate to use woman voice)
If someone wants to offer a better reading (which is in my opinion actually not so bad anymore) you can make one on your channel, and i will pin the link to it here in the comments.
Hope the majority of you still can delight in this wonderful inspiring stories.
May you all be well.😊
A monk and his disciple only witnesses to a great event. Wish more people saw it. So glad it's written in a book.
Thank you infinitely for this video! 🙏
Thank you very much for sharing this experience, the paths to enlightenment are not many and few reach it. The Devas do not pay homage to just anyone and very few can perceive them. Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu.
The thunderbeings spoke to me.
After fasting in meditation for 3 days. ❤
it is liberating to know such things can happen, it gives me hope in my own practice.
Praise to the supreme buddha in all realms.
I was looking for this vidoe for so long thanks for this merit may you attain liberation!
May all beings attain nibbana

Sadhu. Modern research on Near Death Experience by Raymond moody, reincarnation memories by Ian Stevenson/Jim trucker and past lives regression by Brian Weiss all independently but coincidentally show that our consciousness survive death, we live many lives and our thoughts and actions matter in the hereafter.
So be kind and helpful to others, be virtuous, meditate and cultivate ourselves to higher spiritual levels. Cheers.
The most righteous and compassionate people are living in sri lanka commonley call as dhammadipa.😢

There is also the Thailand forest tradition comprising monks who live and meditate in the forest. Cheers.
Or a buttload of chemicals are released in the brain. Mediation can cause it also.
@@ac4185they’ve had kids who are 5 year olds describe their past lives n find their old families and describe events they went through n where certain items are
N have found things they buried From their previous lifetime
It’s even scientific articles that say reincarnation cannot be disproven and that there is evidence for it
Very searshive spiritual dharma item. Love to listen and watch more about this type of materials.
Namaskaram swamiji I am always bow down to you 🙏🤣🤣🧘♂️❤️🤗🙇😌😌😊🇮🇳🇮🇳😃🔥

awesome report! Have you read Phra Acharn Mun's biography? It's free online. thanks
In Chiang Mai, wow! 🙏🏼
I don't know who is narrating this video, but I suggest you make many many videos like this. You have a gift in story telling. Absolute Genius.
It's a robot narrating. 😭And so continues the replacement of my industry. (Im a video editing😅)
people preferring the robot voice and not knowing @@jackofpixels
Wow!
Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu

"Whatever is here came from the origins. Both this and its source cannot be destroyed. One should accept what the monk said about Acharya Mun but there is the principle of uncertainty which affects all limited selves. One should wish the Acharya to remain in that condition but for oneself, one should know that even if one attains that, still there is the likelihood that it may be undone by a higher person or power.
This does not mean that one should be disillusioned about existence. Far from it, one should aspire anyway and be happy regardless.
Some power or person caused one to be here. That same absolute authority can shift one from here and then shift one away from wherever one was elevated to. The idea that one can be the singular cause of liberation is fantasy. One's effort is required but there were cases of persons who attained liberation and who did not make the effort for it. Hence the principle of uncertainty." Michael Beloved
Papanca.
This same experience I receive from the Spirit of Yahoshua. It consumes the heart for a period of time, awakening the truth of existence...of the great I AM. When this happens, there in no longer need of faith. Knowing replaces faith, and your steps become sure.
tell me more please make a video
yes, meeting God creates a download of wisdom, then no need for books or teachers anymore because you fin the path, walking to the light of God and he becomes your teacher
@@fourtwentythree Seek with a pure heart and you will surely find. These words are eternal.
@@mikeregan2135 I mean I have already found I just wanted to hear your experience if it’s not worth it for you to go in further depth I appreciate you sharing what you already have 🙏

So what _was_ the instruction followed that led to his arhatship?
By any other name it is certainly the practice of the eight limbs of yoga. Yama and niyama. Asana, pratyahara, pranayama, dharana, dhyana, and samadhi. Follow these instructions, and those of your Guru, if you are so fortunate to have one. Bare in mind that it is only with pure intention that these practices come into our lives in the first place. And it is suffering that brings wisdom.
Purity of heart reveals the light of God within. Two experiences come, God with form, God without form. Mine came on the eighth of November 1980. Good luck.

@@stefanschleps8758 hi, thanks for your great reply. As I understand it the two people in the clip are probably Theravada Buddhists, and discussing fruition of the 4 path model - arhatship - along with phenomena often associated with the progress of Insight.
You're writing about a more Hindu path I think... Gurus aren't typically a part of early buddhism, for example.
If your own experience in 1980 had similarities to that described in the clip I'd love to hear more. In my own case I've practiced along Theravada lines, for example, yet shaktipat has played a part at significant points.
What most people dont get, is that there is no individual that awakened. Its not an Ajahn or Buddha - its us. We are consciousness and parts of us awake... like rain drops. Eventually more drops will pop out of their individual consciousness until we are collectively awakened. Thats why we mostly dont get names or faces in out of body, mystical or near death experiences - because we tend to create a religion out of it. Names can be catched and distorted by the ego... the heart does not need names or words.
@thefreedominyou do you have a source for acquiring this book?
It's the only chapter translated from the Thai biography of LP Chob
ive heard a pop on several occasions that seems to correspond with a certain quality of the minds rest...POP....
this video will corrupt a lot of people's expectations
Then it shall serve them as a lesson in expectation.
A nuclear bomb in the 1930’s hey??😮
Khina jati vusitam brahmacariyam katam karaniyam
Video or it didn't happen.
I had experience this sudden explosion of very bright light before during meditation in my younger day. Don't think this was Enlightenment. Just a peaceful experience.
I've had one too, quite some years ago. I think it's referred to in English as a 'bliss'. And blissful it was, but as you say, alas, not Enlightenment!
@@missmerrily4830 Enlightement is not something to get or to chase after,its what u already are,being in presence without context of yourself,no identifieng with thoughts,images,mind,body,feelings or emotions,
but letting them all be by themself while u stay as u are,not connecting nor creating,yust fully established in this,full presence,that which when u remove everything taht will stay as unremovable,that which cannot not be,which is what u are.
No, it is not Enlightenment.
Whatever came and went is not enlightenment… the one who perceived the coming and going of states is That itself.
@@Doors_of_janua Yea that which never comes and never goes.
There is a lot of uncritical thinking around this business of enlightenment - a lot of careless unexamined assumptions.
the ones that matter are in your own mind, friend
@@Clearlight201 "Own mind" is itself a careless assumption, as is knowing what matters.
@@Clearlight201 That said, it's not necessarily a bad point.
Nor a good one, though, for that matter.
We just don't know.
@@viveviveka2651 can you prove that it was a careless assumption? because your statement 'diagnoses' my state of consciousness beyond the words I used, whereas mine simply states a useful spiritual principle. We have to use words to attempt to express the inexpressible, so if you want to debate whether individual mind exists, I'll opt out of that for now. Arguments can be made on both sides of that debate. Best wishes to you.
@@Clearlight201 Is there a "my consciousness"?
DMT.....wow
He can congratulate himself on his hard work and dedication that enabled him to briefly get a glimpse of the feeling of enlightenment through his process of meditation , but remember his teacher should have said this is only one box that you have now ticked in life an important box that can help all other areas of your life but still only one box there are many more that you need to experience while on this earthly plane before like having and mastering physical relationships and experiencing , envy jealousy, fear , true loveand contentment, running a successful business and achieving great success the lust goes on and on so leave the temple and monkhood today and go mix it up in the real world and remember there will be plenty of time to further your studies with enlightenment and the true meaning of life after you pass away .
"The lust goes on and on"? ;-)
Jai Dmt
What a shame the reader is so inarticulate! A great message all the same!
It's A.I.
It's awful isn't it.
🙏🏻✨️
Just imagination. In his head. Brain effects.
People always want all this flash and mystical bullshit in religion. Lol
Aha! 😂 What a funny story, but totally unrealistic! True realisation is totally silencing and... There is not any "bomb" or shacking...
How do you know? Are you enlightened ? Is there a standard that everyone will have the same experience? Do you meditate ? If you do is your journey karmic and biological same as his or anybody else's?
Given the many similar documented experiences, the ‘atomic bang’ is what happens - at least to those practitioners.
There is no day, there is no Ajahn Mun, and there is no one could Enlightenment, All just delusion.
There is no enlightenment so how could he attain a concept ? Bullshit power 10 your video
How do you know?
@@uvlog438 thinking knowing is a thing , watching an other thing , dreaming is not prohibited but you know Buddha himself died after 15 days of hard diarrhea in walking to shrinagar , son of a king living in luxury till 25 y old , then by fasting a few days just discovered a cain of distancing with foods and parasites , all tibetan monks today are larger than a piano , all buddhist centers are cash counters begging for your donations , karma is there , experience and soul's maturation is there , wisdom is there but enlightenment is a tale for animals unfinished to push them on a better way less selfishly , but this is from inside 💠 your capacities your deep core , nothing will fall from the sky , and if you do any mantra prayer any ritual into a mind interested by enlightenment , you waste all the time invested cause you run after a ghost 👻 , interestedly , and it shows only that you are actually in the deepest darkness of confusion, illusion , perdition ...
I don't know but i have seen , this is an huge difference .
@@uvlog438 more accurate than enlightenment is the term of realization , realization of what ? That there is nothing to realize , all is there , you are there , so cohabitate as best as possible , in serenity , while you are part of the organic existence with your senses , witnessing the reality ,
If all is illusion illusion too is an illusion so it disappears instantaneously , then it stays only the reality of phenomenons , what you have to read into lucidity ,with heart 💜 and a sharp mind cause there are many sharks, tigers viruses & enraged dachshunds if you don't want to finish as their breakfast softer than the butter 🧈 ,
Great advanced souls who deserves it will get a vision , what is in same time a revelation like a library's essence received in a few seconds , minutes , to subjugate their stupid blindness & melting down their too much materialistic approach of the perspective of evolution ,
Then they become more mystics than the mosquitoes they were before that vision ,
But in front of death , of sickness or in front of the Holly reality of existence , we are all same , equals , nobody is advanced or in late , cause Life is already a winning ticket at lottery , how you see , how you don't see , it's all in your hands , the treasure inside in seed indeed ,
Heat deep ends , who would need a guide into the heart of his home , any other guide than you on your own road will be a mouth to feed , how many will you take ? Too much coaches ruin the locomotive 🚂 , a train need just one locomotive, your Best mind synchronized with your best heart 💜 on good eyes is that locomotive 🚂 only , all the rest is speculation , decoration , coloration , like a tourist into a Zoo , searching for the exit but going more deeply inside by mistake ...
Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu
