I m a woman of almost 64. I follow your video's just a few days. You give People so much energie and you help so much with your laugh and speaches. For a young man like you, i really apreciate and have great respect for you. Thanks a lot. Greetings from Belgium.
Revarant sir, I am almost 75 years old mother. Before my death I thought to learn something that i don't know. What is the thing i don't know. It os oite knowledge of english So i selected a teacher who teaches us something to our life. Through your videoes I learn more about dhamma and language . thank you so much rev. Sir nobel triple gem bless you. ❤️❤️❤️
The five-question technique discussed in this video offers a refreshing way to deal with negativity. Asking 'What am I thinking right now?' and 'Is this thought helpful?' are such powerful tools for grounding oneself in the present moment. It’s not about denying or fighting against unwanted thoughts, but rather acknowledging them and choosing how to respond mindfully. This method aligns beautifully with the principles of mindfulness and self-compassion, promoting a healthier relationship with our own minds. It’s a practical guide for anyone looking to cultivate more peace and clarity in their life
When i asked myself the second question, i realized that I had kept in so much trauma from 2018, and i cried for so long...for who i was then and how it has affected me now. I was so lonely that year and felt that nobody cared for me. I'm so glad i know now.😊
I am 15 started watching about a week ago and learning more about Buddhism and I love it I don’t think I’ll become Buddhist bc I don’t believe in reincarnation but it’s a philosophy for me so thank you ❤
I’m 15 too, soon to be 16 tho. It’s nice to see someone else my age here, my mind has been a mess lately and I think and hope that this channel will get me out of this darkness
Almost 10 minutes of watching this video saved me the trouble of several days of reading a book, not to mention the fact that this was easily understood and went straight home to my mind and heart. Thanks a lot! Namo Buddhaya 🙏🏼
For those of you who are reading this, if you are having trouble, remember you are not alone and never give up. I wish you health, success and happiness
The concept of mindfulness in Buddhism has taught me so much about staying present. It’s amazing how simply being aware can bring so much clarity and calm
You don't control your mind! You control your awareness. You are pure awareness moving about through many different areas within the mind. The beautiful thing is that you are capable of moving your awareness where you want it to be. And remember that where awareness goes, energy flows. So don't give negative areas in your mind too much energy, or they will grow.
sadu i was really really tired of thinking always about something like studies....improvements...future....good things...bad things...important..unimportant things...and thank you so much youtube always show me the best videos whenever i need help. thank you so much sadu you helped me a lot. may you and everyone have a happy wonderful life
I was going through a lot, my mind would automatically start thinking about random things which I didn't want to, my brain was out of control, but after seeing this video I am sure that i will be able to control my mind this video was very helpful, it eased me thank you so much❤😊, namo buddhaya
Yes this is good to solve our day to day problems. What actually happening is part of the mind is analysing the other part of the mind and replacing some thoughts with another thoughts. Good for the lay people to solve their problems. By going through the comments also I have seen this is correct. But the aim of dealing with mind is completely switching off It. As Muni Patanjali says Yogassa chitta vritti nirodhaha.
Namo Buddhaya Bohoma pin swameenwahansa for this great advice 🙏 May swameenwahanse realize the four noble truths in this Gautama Buddhas dispensation...sadhu sadhu sadhu...
This is simple as sweet honey! But when we think about the wholesome concept and core of this entire practise, I think it is going to much deeper context. Which eventually leads to understand our mind and control every bit of it
I am trying. So hard. For 23 years now. And I'm 55. I still have not mastered control of my mind. It is too hard! I feel I can't do it! I've been following the Eighfold Path for so long..... I MUST keep trying. I'm so lost. My mom is so sick--this is the first time she's been in the hospital for 6 days now, and I am so scared. I'm legally blind, have never been able to drive, I live wayyy out in the country, 35 miles from the hospital. All of my friends and family died from Covid or Cancer. I'm so scared. Mom has neither, but can't stop throwing up, won't keep food down, won't eat. I'm so scared!!! So I keep trying. I keep reading my Dhammapadda. I am sorry, teacher, I do not know your name, but I watch your videos almost every day, and I take notes in a special Braille notebook just for myself. I can't stop crying. I'm so alone and scared. Mom has just GOT to come home!! Thank you, teacher, for everything! I will keep trying!
So sorry to hear about your difficult struggle and your mother being unwell. You sound very stressed and my heart goes out to you. I find Theravada "the Buddha's word's a good book to fall back on when i stray...it makes simple sense out of what could appear complicated at times. Reading the Buddhas words on understanding the nature of mind really really does being me back to myself and gain control over my thoughts feelings emotions and corrects my actions and influence in the world of action as well in my personal practices. Book is called The Buddha's Words - edited by Bhikkhu Bodi . I wish to ease your anxiety and stress as your not alone with stress and worry. My partner is very unwell and im recently struggling with myself and coping. I always recommend finding a meditation and yoga teacher. There are some fantastic practitioners out there who we learn from. Warmest of thoughts n feelings to you my friend 🙏
Supreme Buddha says, “All conditioned things are impermanent' - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering”. Supreme Buddha explains how there are five processes over which human beings have no control: 1. Growing old 2. Falling sick 3. Death and destruction 4. Decay of perishable things 5. The passing away of that which is liable to pass. Once you are born, you grow, develop, become an adult until at some point you will die. In the adult life your relationships will change, your ideas and opinions will certainly change, and so will you. Everyone grows older and everything changes. No one can escapes these five aspects of impermanence until one achieves Nibbana, Hence Keep reflecting on the impermenent nature of reality. So keep trying, your effort will help you in your next lives to come for sure. If it does not help in this life itself. May you be well and happy, all the best to you 🙏🙏🙏
I’m so sorry to hear that. Try to exercise every, meditate and practice breathing! Hope you feel better and remember that you’re not alone!! I’ll send good vibrations your way. Stay strong, my friend! ❤❤❤
Please help me with this---how does one know one is Enlightened when one reaches Enlightenment. How did the Buddha know? How does this Monk know? Thank you@perera5700
I did some real thinking, and i found that I am angry, confused, and upset at myself and my performance in my work be it my main job and my side job. I Feel that i can forgive myself now and move on to greater things.
Blessings Bhante, thanks for these helpful instructions. The world would be a better place if we all are masters of our thoughts rather than servants. Namo Buddhaya 🙏🏼📿🙏🏼📿🙏🏼📿
You are not your thoughts you are the person watching your thoughts simple but so true ❤ why where we never taught this in school is really upsetting for me 😢
Thank YOU! you help me a lot. I was going through a big problem, my mine was in anger, when I saw you video. You are a blessing to me, when I required help!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beneficial thoughts are very wholesome, but not immediately. If there is no quick result, many people don't have the patience to keep on thinking in a beneficial way. But after 15 years of 'training', I - as a lay person - can confirm it is really worth it! It's still improving day by day and I hope to be able to keep on improving for the rest of my life 🙂
I am a pirivena teacher.Venerable sir I watch your videos in my free time .Really I think your dhamma sermons are very useful to improve our lives well.Thank you lot venerable sir .
Thank you so much.This helps me a lot.I just pray that I can do it.I am suffering from depression for how many years.Hoping I can do this.Thank you so much for this inspiring thought and teaching.You are a blessing to everyone.🙏🙏🙏💖
Thank you so very much, I am going to write these 5 questions down on a card where I can look at them and practice them. So very excellent advice it is. Namo Buddhaya.
Brother when u speak, glowing smile on your face it's look good and make me to smile 😊 thank you for the smile. When ever you say namo buddhay even I'm saying with you namo buddhay 🎉
Very practical..it is we focus on our workings of our mind which will help to find and fix whether the thoughts synchronize with our positive emotions and feelings.
Irespective any religious background i think one should study the buddhist philosophy which is universal. Buddhist religion is for buddhist but its philosophy can be studied by anyone. Your ladder of happiness will start ones you learn these tecniques. Thank you our respected monk, you are benefiting so many people 🙏
1. What thoughts keep me away from my peace? 2. What am I thinking/doing right now? 3. Is it helpful for me? 4. What is the best thing to do? 5. What are the benefits?
Thanks a lot Pujya Bhanteji!! Your videos are so precious and helpful that words are just simply not enough to express gratitude. Your videos/clips have always come exactly at the right times for me when needed in my day to day life. Thanks a lot!!! We all promise to adopt the teachings of Buddha from your videos and your wonderful guidelines too. Thank you so much for spreading the teachings, karuna, love, kindness. Namo Buddhay!!🙏☸️ Mangal Ho!!
Thank you for sharing such a meaningful and insightful video. The discussion about how our mind becomes a better servant when controlled, but a harsh master when left unchecked, is truly transformative. I particularly found the explanation at 03:13, where you emphasize the importance of asking "What am I thinking right now?" to bring the mind into the present moment, to be profoundly practical and relatable. It’s a powerful reminder of how often we live in the past or future and miss the beauty of the present. Looking forward to more wisdom-filled videos like this one!
Sometimes it is a situation that takes your peace away, is the regret, the frustrations, the resentment. It is not just negative thoughts, and for that you can’t just ask questions cause you already know the answers.
Thank you, it was both pleasure to listen to you and get positive emotions from you and useful. But I would say, that together with "what am I doing? What am I thinking?", we also need to ask "Why?". As you've noticed, we can know that sugar is unhealthy, but eat too much sweets anyway. But why? Or why are we lazy? Because it is in us or because we are tired or we are doing not that we like or we are afraid of changing our life or work? And if it is a strong reason, it would be much more difficult to deal with negative thought without fighting with reasons. I was unhappy because I was often irritated. But when I learned that irritation is usually the result of tiredness (not only physical, but also mental, emotional - from people around, work, chores, place etc), I could deal with it. And I sew the connection. So every time I feel irritated, it is the time when I'm overwhelmed, to I understand, that I need to have rest and ask myself, what am I tired of? What do I need now? Sleep, go for a walk, watch film, go away, meet friends? I do it and I am not irritated any more, but filled with positive energy. ❤ Hope, it will help somebody.
Thank you so much, I have wasted my most valuable time from long time... I didn't got guidance like this before but now by this practical and geniune tips I'll start and follow for getting into habit with this teachings.... thanking you sir❤

Thank you, it was both pleasure to listen to you and get positive emotions from you and useful. But I would say, that together with "what am I doing? What am I thinking?", we also need to ask "Why?".
As you've noticed, we can know that sugar is unhealthy, but eat too much sweets anyway. But why? Or why are we lazy? Because it is in us or because we are tired or we are doing not that we like or we are afraid of changing our life or work? And if it is a strong reason, it would be much more difficult to deal with negative thought without fighting with reasons.
I was unhappy because I was often irritated. But when I learned that irritation is usually the result of tiredness (not only physical, but also mental, emotional - from people around, work, chores, place etc), I could deal with it. And I sew the connection. So every time I feel irritated, it is the time when I'm overwhelmed, to I understand, that I need to have rest and ask myself, what am I tired of? What do I need now? Sleep, go for a walk, watch film, go away, meet friends? I do it and I am not irritated any more, but filled with positive energy. ❤
Hope, it will help somebody.
Thanks so much 🙏🙏🙏you are the best person in my heart ❤️❤️❤️now I know how to control my negative thought in my mind ❤❤❤
