    Thank you Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche ! iam hurt by a friend. your retreat instructions just help me watch my reactions without ratings. i watch my body and mind without attachement. It helps me so much. I no longer feel hurt because i realize that there is nobody in me who can be hurt. Thank you so much.

    "First, liberate yourself" by realization, then you can help others. Then others can get also realization.
    That mean he definitely liberated himself. 🙏🙏🙏

    Jail can be a good place for retreat. There are few teachers there, but many good books.

    When I am alone, I think of Yongey very often. I have great admiration for his goodness, kindness, caring...I am in love. Grateful I had opportunity to discover him. This must be a little bit of good karma in my life.

      I think the word is revering him. Your appreciation should be following his teaching and practising meditation to show your reverence and respect. Buddha's last word was meditation is your reverence for me.

      @@chilay6744 I do practice, but I cannot say there were not fails on my meditation. During this 8 munths few times I was running away toward sensory pleasures to run away from uncomfortable experiences(and he never but never ! criticised or tried to punishe me for my weaknesses, I never got responses from him that would say that I am being rejected and I am not a resiever of his teaching ). I know my failures and weaknesses are also to teach me and I do not need to be perfect
      . And sometimes I have impression that I do not have to follow him...that somehow his teachings happens anyway in my life . Whenever new teaching arrive, I allredy know, this is happening in my life. Though sometimes I doubt myself so much.

    It took me long time to be able to sit, meditate and I am quite new to this.
    I have a set of specific crystals with me as well as a few of my single bowls that helps me to get back to breathing, let go when my mind starts to wander.
    It does help me to regenerate when I am unhappy or struggling under stress and god knows that I suffer from anxiety.

    Hi, i'm very thankful for all the kindness that you share whith us. The meditation is very important for my life.
    I would like to ask you a question: I'm a woman, and i didnt heard in this talk names of womans that did retreat and inspired you. I keep cuestioning myself about the rol of womans and how sadly it is not able in our society (im from Colombia) to be absent, mostly if you have childs. ¿What do you think about that? ¡Thanks to all the team!

    hey,ola :) i hhave a question,please .. how many hours do i have to meditate like on a silent retreat,but at home terms ?? i have never done any retreat and have no idea about anything :( what's a daily routine or the daily process?? could you get me through that path ?? coz many meditators say that without this disciplined process (meditation retreat) is very hard to achieve the goal of non-duality or enlightement .. thank you so much :** Namaste

    • @toratora9009

      just do basic meditation on awareness. that will be more than sufficient. been told that by the monks itself. breathing awareness. mantra awareness. shamatha that is. even 5 mins a day is good. start from there. theres def benefits there.

      @Calligraphy-dilipaweeratunga13 5 років тому +5

      No.but married people can become monks .as long as they being monks they aren't married . But if a monk want to marry he can leave the monkhood and do it but he/she is no longer a monk.

      High Tibetan Lama monks can marry, can have a family. The Northern Mahayana Style (Tibet, India, Nepal) are very relaxed, more natural in themselves, and casual. Plus these countries along the Himalayas are such extreme climate, they eat meat.
      In the South countries, they practice Theravada, much more austere, serious, pious, and ‘holier than thou’ They cannot marry
