This wise man has transformed my life. As a muslim Ajahn Brahm has shown me the way to practical life solutions, how to calm my mind and focus, this is the first step to healing and gaining inner peace.
Learn to be silent. Live at peace. People who wish to bring others down have to live with their anger, many times speaking, saying anything at all gives them the opportunity to turn their anger outward and onto you. I've come to realize that by speaking at all, I open the floodgates for angry people to give their opinions. Silence prevents that. It prevents me from making those problems my own. But of course, there is a middle-way as Ajahn Brahm puts it. You can be silent without being "rude" just by letting people be aware of your circumstances.
When I wake up and see a podcast message on my phone by Ajahn Brahm (and I appreciate all the people who help make it happen) It’s like a gift, I’m like a child, I smile and do a victory dance I feel like I won something 😁
This was just perfect for me today. My mind is like a whirlpool at the moment, so much to do, then not actually getting anything done in the end. Repeat the next day, etc etc. I then beat myself up for not getting ‘stuff’ done. I have now been looking at how badly I treat myself. I spent a few peaceful moments today and came out of them smiling. The self hug really worked too. Just saying to yourself ‘hey, you are great as you are. I love me’. Thank you very much Ajahn Brahm. Oh, I also put my hand on my heart, feeling it’s loving beat as it powers my amazing body.
Ajahn Brahm is who I look up to the most in the world. Thank you for all the help you have given me in my life Ajahn Brahm. The door of my heart will always be open to you 🙏 may you have a prosperous life that will lead you to a fast enlightenment my brother. Peace and love 😊
When i was finished watching this video I realized I had been silent the whole time. I think being silent begets listening. When you talk too much stuff only goes out of the mind. When you are silent things go in. Reflection is very important.
Woooooohoooooooo.... Ajahn Brahm is back. It is wonderful to see you again. My heart jumped for joy when I saw your name. No other monk can give a talk like AB. he’s very engaging, full of wisdom and wit ... not to mention how lovable and funny. Just an altogether enlightened being.
I’m going through a difficult time in my life at the moment. But thanks to AB teachings (“...thinking about it is the hard part...”), I’ll come out of it okay. I need to stop all this thinking. I take refuge in the Dhamma ... especially, during trying times. Sadhu!
Thank you for your lesson on smiling at yourself in the mirror. At first I thought. Then I did. How it seemed to work. After about two minutes of repulsion then came acceptance. If I keep trying I might even like myself. Your teaching.
Happy to see Ajahn Brahm is back; watching 6 hours after the live inter'cast, from an Island near Vancouver Canada, still Friday morning here -- Peace!
OMG!! My FAVORITE Monk is back !!!! I admire you so much Sir !! But please take care of yourself and I know you know your limitations in your responsibility but YOUR HEALTH COMES FIRST 😘
When you’re at peace ... when you’re calm (the Mind is calm), you can accomplish amazing things. Why is that ? Because YOU are not in way of yourself. Good teaching. Sadhu!
Combobulate rate. (Verb) To put together in a somewhat mysterious manner. To bring something out of a state of confusion or disarray. this is now my favorite word! :P
Ajahn brahm, I'm listening from south Africa and am enjoying the talks, has helped my life tremendously, haven't heard of you around. is it abnormal of me? how come you never came to south Africa? is there something I'm missing?

Peace is every step. TNH. Yet, Complacency is not peace. Go about peace in that which complies with Peace, and be mindful that your own peace of mind and "warmth" is more powerful a contribution than "mindless" anger.

BSWA- can't deal with organized religion... I'm very disappointed in them, unsubscribed. This video came up. I hope Ajahn Brahm could have someone post videos on a UA-cam Channel independent of BSWA.
Thanks . I need to have peace more than any thing .
I'm dealing with anxiety now. Thank you, this is helping.
I love this man what a blessing

thank you all ! :)
How is it that enlightenment is everlasting / eternal?
while all phenomena is impermanent, nirvana exists as an state/entity outside of phenomena, thus it is everlasting and eternal.
