'10% Happier with Dan Harris' with the Dalai Lama

ABC News' Dan Harris sat down with His Holiness and neuroscientist Richard Davidson for his new livestream podcast, "10% Happier."

[@tenzinyangchen2931]

Thank you Dan Harris. I not only enjoyed listening to His Holiness but learned something 🙏

[@longsword92]

I think the Dalai Lama is the coolest person in the world.

[@Aqualuviae]

longsword92 so are you

[@carlosa.n5100]

longsword92 He is a fuckin idol worshipper. He believes in a god with 10 arms. Get the fuck out of here with that bullshit

thats Hinduism.

[@carlosa.n5100]

@Janice Brown you obviously don't know the definition of an idol worshipper. I do not worship that demonic force of Jesus. I only pray and worship the MOST HIGH!

[@StephenBrown-cp4zg]

I love his laugh its one of the most peaceful laughs I have ever heard

[@Royalroadtotheunc]

Good summary of the neuroscience-meditation connection. Always a pleasure to hear His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

The palms together, and bow, with "right back at you" just cracked me up. LOL!

he's the most inspirational person

[@astralpangaea]

To enlighten yourself is to enlighten everything else. To be able to share your love/light with others you must first be filled yourself. Wonderful video, thank you!

[@MagenDaSwede]

I recently "met" Dan Harris via Terry Gross/Fresh Air on public radio. I liked what I heard enough to subscribe to his podcasts. I resolved to listen to them, starting with #1, in order to better understand meditation, types of practice, and how it could benefit my pretty troubled life. I'm excited!

[@crk122153]

Thank you do much your Holiness!

[@callumharnor7982]

Brilliant interview with his holiness. Dan you are a good man. 👏

[@queenofmoderation7668]

One of the coolest interview ever. Dalai Lama rocks!!

[@palmamingozzi5736]

I like the concept of training the mind to develop peace and serenity, none of us have it and everyone must strive for it. Happiness is a momentary state of being but intelligence must be developed. Thanks for your insight.

[@xflyingtiger]

THAT, Dan Harris, was an awesome video.

we as a human, we never gonna free from problems and worries, some people are dealing their lives with too much problems and anxtietyeis etc but he gaves those peopel so much hopes and being true human being. I personally being as a buddhism and I'm so proud of to be his prayer and he's true inspiration to our younger generations in this modern world.

[@jaylahj97]

loved this, do think Dan was trying to take it deeper and the dali lama was concerned with the grander perspective. i want a clear explanation of enlightenment too. meditation gets deep and i know dan feels it

The Dalai Lama never sees his religion as "better" than others'.

[@TheMostBK]

[@peacefulsoul.3123]

Yes I agree

[@mariadelmardospasos]

Hello! Thank you for this, it was fascinating! I have a question: can anybody tell me what two basic branches of Buddhist tradition the Dalai Lama mentions at 21:16 ? I cannot understand him there! Thanks!

[@netuno60]

Hi María, I think he had talked about Pali tradition and Sanskrit tradition.

[@taidelek9994]

pali tradition is considered as theravada and sanskrit tradition ( nalanda tradition ) is considered as mahayana or tibetan budhism.

[@raspberryblood]

Was there as whisperer behind the Dalai Lama? I faintly heard something.

[@danielgn6227]

Yeah a translator I guess

[@papabig7501]

Whose talking in the background

[@springrollwang4441]

Personal translator. The translator knows what words he might get confused, so give him real time hint. He's holiness, but knows his limitation, not all mighty kind.

[@Dee-so5fq]

I see several ignorant, mean spirited, possibly uneducated people on this comment feed that could definitely use meditation in their lives. If you do not like the Dalai Lama then WTF are you even watching this for? Go waste your negative energy elsewhere and leave the happy people to be happy.

[@danielgn6227]

And yet your comment is also full of anger, just directed in another direction. Your aversion to other people behavior and your wanting to control objects outside yourself are defilements, and they'll only bring you suffering unless brought into awareness.

[@janetownley]

But he’s an ego-driven fake who harms people with his clueless, heavy-handed nonsense. I don’t like anybody who acts that way. My meditation practice is going really well, by the way, and I’m only angry because “His holiness” is a phony jerk and people are so naive.

Dan, isn't it Dalai Lama message are relevant today in 2021? Today, United States is boiling with hatered, disharmony among all age groups.

[@pradyot7]

Why is someone whispering to the Dalai Lama

[@sonamyanotsang6857]

Prady Jr. Dalai Lama feels his English is not adequate so he always has a translated/interpreter with him.

Meditation will give you ultimate reality and infinite compassion and wisdom. All other philosophies are dumb.

[@MrShahid0072]

Many so called enlightened people are perverts,rapists and hedonists and more often than not have a gigantic enlightened ego and think consciousness is fundamental to existence of universe and believe in things like Afterlife, Manifestation (the secret), Reincarnation and world would be better if they didn't teach or didn't shine their "enlightened" light on other people. Not to say everyone is like that.

[@Josh_Tsu1067]

@@MrShahid0072 true. also who needs to worry about emlightenment anyways? i'd rather be 5% happier or living with less stress nothing bigger then that people think that with enlightenment they will be blissful all the time or unlock the secrets of the universe

Sumer myth is base of Bible.

[@wendyfurr6650]

He became a way to those who had gone astray and knowledge for those who were without knowledge, discovery for those who were seeking and strength for those who were trembling, purity for those who were defiled. Since it is Jesus Christ who is the shepherd who left behind the 99 who had not gone astray and came and searched for the 1 that had gone astray. He rejoiced when he found it for 99 is a number expressed with a gesture of the "left hand".(judgment of the Law/Karma) But when 1 is found, the sum total transfers to the right hand. (Mercy) in this way the thing that is in need of 1, namely the whole right hand, draws what is missing, and takes it from the left hand part so that it transfers to the right hand. And thus the number becomes 100. This is a symbol of the spoken forms of these numbers. The Father is he who, even on the Sabbath, when the sheep that he had found had fallen into the ditch, labored over it and kept the sheep alive, once he had brought it up from the ditch("broke" the law to obey the Holy Spirit) In the Spirit, there is freedom. You have the choice to bind yourself to the covenant of the minutiae of the law or fulfill the law by accepting the new covenant of the Holy Spirit by loving God with all your heart, mind and soul and loving your neighbor as yourself

[@chipwrecker]

wendy furr as a mostly Buddhist, I agree with your message. Let the king of forgiveness live in our hearts.

Everyone who thinks this Dalai lama is cool. FUN FACT. The Dalai Lamas had slaves!!!! In shackless

[@StormsandSaugeye]

Yes he did. In a time and place where it was considered socially acceptable. When he was enthroned he enacted reforms and dismissed his slaves. Further, after leaving Tibet and coming face to face with new ideas and concepts he changed his ways. We judge willingness to change more than we judge a figurehead before enthronement.

[@carlosa.n5100]

[@StormsandSaugeye]

Would you mind explaining what object he worships?

[@carlosa.n5100]

Amy Buddha statues. He also goes to the river does some weird ceremony to praise a god with 6 arms LOL... Buddhism is one of the worse religions out there! They ripoff the community and sell them bullshit amulets for thousands of dollars

[@StormsandSaugeye]

Ok so you don't actually know anything about Buddhism then. This is what the Buddha has said: 'Salvation doesn't come from the sight of me. It demands strenuous effort and practice. So work hard and seek your own salvation constantly.' I advise that in the future, before formulating a criticism, at least pretend to know what you are talking about.

[@wendyfurr6650]

Jesus said:" come to me. My lordship is mild." How many lifetimes of meditation and how many offerings to idols will it take to purge you of your negative karma? I'm open to aspects of Buddhist practice but came to recognize that salvation is a free gift from a loving creator. In my heart I knew forgiveness of my negative karma to be true, if I'm willing to forgive at least. I have no disrespect to any one who aims for enlightenment but would like to encourage anyone who is reading this to consider that God has made an atonement for your negative karma already because otherwise you might have never been freed from Samsara. The Law is a harsh judge but mercy is infinite. Love is stronger than death even. With God all things are possible. At least consider this possibility if you have an open mind :) Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to all men. :) God have mercy on you all in the name of Jesus Christ Amen

[@KZXten]

Jesus Christ, God the Son, is the answer to your problems. Jesus is victorious over sin, sickness, depression, fear, hate, addictions and even death & Satan. You receive the victory when you put your trust in Jesus Christ as your Savior. There is power in the name of Jesus Christ! There is power in the blood of Jesus Christ! 💗PRAY this with a sincere & humble heart: Jesus, I come to you a sinner in need of your forgivess. I believe you are the Son of God. I believe that you went to the cross, died in my place, paying my sin debt. That you were buried and rose on the 3rd day to everlasting life. Jesus, right now I choose to receive you as my Savior. I trust in you alone for my salvation. Thank you for your forgiveness. Thank you for the gift of eternal life in Heaven. Teach me, guide me & use me for your glory. Amen.
