We all appreciate her work. Please allow me to interrupt. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. In Pidhauli (Vaishali) the local deity is Bardiha Baba. Bardiha means the Baba who didn't allow us to stay where he was staying. Bardiha Baba is the Buddha no doubt because he didn't allow the crowd of Lichavies to stay with him in Bandagama. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to Buddhists.

Hello Mindah! What a great surprise to find a new video from you today 🌞 I am currently in Bodh Gaya and I just got back to my room from the Mahabodhi temple. The ambience and spiritual energy there is indescribable! I'm doing a Buddhist pilgrimage, which was in many ways inspired by your video on the importance of going on a Buddhist pilgrimage. I want to thank you so much for making that video. May the Universe bless you for spreading the Dharma!!! 🌝☄🌠🌟🙏

The lesson from Akkosa Sutta (the 4th Sutta mentioned in this video) only works when the accused person did not do anything wrong. Like the Buddha, he was right to react that way. However, if the same reaction is done by a scammer who just lied, cheated and robbed someone else, and then when confronted, they don't accept and not even acknowledge what they did and proceed to say "your insults are all yours" in a mockingly fashion, then I think that would be the definition of evil. All I'm saying is that the example of this Sutta only works when the context is right. Otherwise, it could be used as a tool for bad people to do unwholesome actions and completely avoid taking any responsibility for it.
@EnthusiasticBuddhist108
@EnthusiasticBuddhist108 7 жыл бұрын
Yes, this is true! If your reaction comes from a place of ego-clinging and arrogance then this behavioral would be unwholesome. But if it comes from a tamed, egoless mind, then the intention springs from compassion and wisdom. Hopefully, most of us can relate more to the latter. :)

How are you? Do you want to be my friend? You are beautiful. Thanks for the video. There are more to be learned and learning never stop. Here are some words for you, the Buddha taught 8 Buddhist laws for Buddhist followers to keep and monks to keep for their benefits in this life and next life. These are the Buddha teaching: 1. Do not kill living beings. 2. Do not lie. 3. Do not steal. 4. Do not lust. 5. Do not drink alcohol. 6. Do no have makeup, do not dance and sing and put on fragrance like perfume and cologne . 7. Do not sit in high and wide and luxury bed. 8. Do not eat pass 12 o'clock in the afternoon. In Vietnamese with English translation: 1. Không được sát sanh (Do not kill living beings) 2. Không được trộm cướp ( Do not steal) 3. Không được dâm dục (Do not have sex) 4. Không được nói dối (Do not lie) 5. Không được uống rượu (Do not drink alcohol) 6. Không được trang điểm, thoa dầu thơm, múa hát và xem múa hát. (Do not make up, do not put on perfume or fragrance, sing dance and watch sing and dance.) 7. Không được nằm ngồi giường cao rộng đẹp đẽ (Do not sit or lay down on tall and wide bed.) 8. Không được ăn quá giờ ngọ (Do not eat pass afternoon which 12:00 o'clock)., These are the rules to become higher with Buddha and to achieve good merits in order to achieve high meditation gain or practicing Buddhism. Also, the Buddha taught not to be attached in life by our senses of sight, smell, touch, hearing, and tastes and property attachment and personal attachment; those who did this will soon be enlightened. There are 84,000 ways of achieving Buddha-hood according to Hoa Nghiem Sutra in Buddhism and meditation is one of those way toward achieving Buddahood. I really hope to hear back from you.

Yes people harm themselves by trying to harm others with their false images of permanence; however, to those aware of it not really existing as they pretend, it looks rather like a silly affected pantomime of pain. On self preservation from attacks- in equanimity doesn't one care and appreciate for oneself(body vicinity) also; otherwise, one maybe discriminating a contrived sacrificial no-self self and not being wholly truly with it ? Often, just a little amount of force is all that is required to stop trouble escalating.

Those who out of conflict will find fighting is a stupid yet funny way to solve problems. Those who engage in conflict will feel offended when others point out their stupidity. A poetic eye sees everything equally poetic. The eye of beauty sees everything equally beauty. Those who have mindset of inequality tend to create enemies. They are the one who create separations of society.

I heard another version of Nanda story- that after he was shown the nymphs, he started practicing, but (if I remember correctly) ignored the other monks, still enchanted with the nymphs, practicing for their sake. THEN the Buddha came to him AGAIN and showed him a pot in the deepest of hells, and he asked the demon who was stirring the pot and heating it to a boil "For whom are you preparing this pot?" And the demon answered "For Ven. Nanda, for after his karma wears out in the deva realm, he will be brought here to be tormented, stabbed and boiled in my pot for (however many thousands of years.) At which point Nanda realized the true nature of Samsara and the folly of lusting after any kind of pleasures or goals in it, and began practicing for the right reasons. I can't remember where I read this, but I want to say it was Patrul Rinpoche in "Words of My Perfect Teacher" where he's elaborating on the "Defects of Samsara" portion of the Four Thoughts That Turn the Mind.

It's the first time for me to watch your video. I knew this website when I was watching one video of one monk in Cambodia. Actually, I want to learn more about Buddha's teaching. I have started to learn and listen to the monk's (San Sochea) preach and teaching in Khmer language and I want to search more in internet but I know only English and my English is not yet good enough to understand 100% spoken English, especially when I listen to a native speaker or to the speech which contains a lot of terminology. I can understand only the simple speech for non-native English speaker. I hope I will be getting better after I try to listen to your videos or other videos because I can learn more about Buddhism as well as practice listening in English. Thank you.

Can you be a soldier and be a Buddhist? While the practice of non-violence is a desirable goal, but there is at times the requirement to protect ourselves using the police and the armed forces. We may not like to use blades as they can can harm people, but we use them in the plow fields by cutting into the earth to farm and grow food, we use blades to cut and shape goods to produce things we need in life, and we use blades to conduct surgery so we can cut out illness in order we can live. While I may never be a monk, I think I can have a daily practice in the eightfold path and the five virtues while being a soldier. Thoughts?

The second story reminds me of that example of covering your own feet in leather instead of trying to cover the whole ground of the world in leather, in order to have a better feeling while walking. Changing yourself to better with the practices of virtue and meditation will change the world to become a better place for yourself and everybody else. Thank you for your inspiring words. With loving and kind thoughts
