Merci, c'est toujours de grande utilité ce que vous partagez. Actuellement je suis en questionnement: pourquoi je vis cette frénésie de la recherche d'une identité à peine je m'éloigne d'elle. Et quand je m'en éloigne , tout un tas d'alerte de survie se mettent en marche. C'est compliqué à gérer .Est-ce possible d'avoir un réel "reset" durablement? Donc vos vidéos sont une référence pour moi actuellement, merci encore.

The man is brilliant, I really like his wisdom and energy.. I feel better already !

My insight has revealed that all have been or are in some form of "bondage." We may dislike the term, but, ultimately, that's what is. If a habit tendency is impeding healthy and conducive behavior, it's bondage. May we have the eyes to see it and even greater courage to eradicate it.

"All that we are is made up of our thoughts..."- The Buddha.

Thank you for the confirmation. I am working on it now.

Thank you for your brilliant teaching!

Thank you! Hope you all are safe and that neither your home nor the center are damaged..

Thank you, Guo Gu! 🙏❤

So very interesting! Glad to have this instruction to use in my practice

What’s the name of this chant? 🙏 amituofo

Loving this talk -- facing a wall then turning the other way to open space -

I came here because I was trying to understand more about Chan Buddhism. And now that I've heard Laoshi Guo Gu I'm ready to engaged with the practice until I'm able to be free. I was just looking for a way to live Chan without withdrawing from the world... A ten thousand thanks for sharing this crucial content with everybody us and give me a hope. 🙏

Thank You. Connected the dots for me.

Excellent! Very clear and uplifting.

I really love this!!!!

We gettin out samsara with this one 🔥🔥🗣️

🙏🙏🙏

Is there any topic more important, more relevant to today's world than this? Compassion has the function of alleviating suffering. The gift of holding and facing suffering and let it go. Very powerful. Very grateful for this talk. 🙏

Thank you so such an insightful talk!

Damn. I didn’t know Guo Gu was a dragon. Spitting straight 🔥

Woah. I was expecting cringe but he has a beautiful voice. Rhythm is a bit off, but his chanting is perfect. If I could sound like that I’d be chanting all the time 😂 I need to move to Tally and get lessons from him. I’ll be his caddy or servant lol It’s only an hour and a half drive.

Illuminati is right there just remove the on

In preparation he tells us: These days 'present' has become a buzzword, popular word, widely used by many people in many different ways and contexts, there is a lot of vagueness about this word. (Where there is this sloopy vagueness, there is sure to be a lot of confusion around this word.) Then he precedes to point out: "You have to be unmoved by your own thoughts and feeling in order to have an inkling (beginning taste) of what it's like to be present." Many other rich nuggets follow in this talk if one listens.

Lovely 🙏 thank you

Yes, it is circumstantial and not a black-white commandment. Strictly making precepts a "once and for all command" is a limitation and against the Buddha's teaching of being mentally liberated. Buddha Dharma is practical and rational, our intent and sensible morality as well as our karmic circumstances play role in making decisions. Imagine not taking vaccines because we might "kill" the COVID thus infecting the whole sangha onto their arhathood. haha~ Namo Amituofo~

Thank you for sharing this teaching. It was nice to get a reminder that there's more to Chan than just sitting meditation. I've found myself at times falling into the trap of viewing my practice based only on how I feel I'm doing in seated meditation. I try to remind myself that the sitting is just the rehearsal and daily life is the main event. I also really connected with Guo Gu's teaching style. He has a quiet intensity that drew me right in. Looking forward to listening to more of his talks.

I remember you from Zen International Forums.

Thank you !

An inspirational talk! I love how the early Chan meditators continued to walk the path despite poltical upheaval.

Thank you so much for your excellent teaching🙏🏻🙏🏻😀🌺
