This man is a warrior! taking on the greatest fight of all.

[@ivritisrael5080]

thank you. You are probably the only ones living almost like the disciples of Buddha did. Keep it simple. I hope to visit one day.

[@AnthonyTizzleMyNizzle]

We own nothing and everything is subject to its own causes and effects. Therefore we should leave it all alone and observe with mindfulness the nature of rising and falling of all things. Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu 🙏🏽

[@Element7271]

A thousand thank you’s Teacher 🙏 I learned so much from these lessons today I deeply connected with the Teachings and will apply myself in them I am really blown away with the simplicity in them and also the depth and substance it contains, now all to do is remember but keep in periphery and not think about it just mindful that’s all, so beautiful thank you ☸️💜🙏🏼

what was said at 21:00 was very significant

[@ameliamnicol]

This made me wonder about mindfulness and will: Boethius and the will to sit in a chair, the will to sit or really the awareness that you are or have, the fluidity of will and mindfulness and the need for aversion...This is nice to listen to.

[@sunnycoco8411]

Awareness of breathing. Instead of lost in thinking.

[@danieldiaz7843]

Impressive. Thanks.

[@hz7988]

I love this monk ! Getting a strong Nyanamoli upādāna. But i guess it's a healthy attachment. Want to follow his footsteps. I bow to your wise words Bhante 🙏 Sadhux3!

[@brianreeves]

Very powerful. Thank you Bhante. I will apply your advice to my practice.

[@5elements984]

Wonderful, well said, thats why we take refuge to sangha, sangha really protects the dhamma in true sense. I am getting angry now a days but become mindful after releasing it ,also getting lot of hot sensations on body.pl share some instruction

Observe your breath, it’s length, your mood, and ask yourself are you breathing? Don’t force the action, just discern or observe

[@tejasashwini6766]

So, pleasure is like credit. To have pleasure you have to barrow from... something, but then you have to pay back (with interest?) and that's suffering. Is this an accurate conceptualization?

[@nickalasjojola1911]

Not quite, in this sutta (suttacentral.net/mn75/en/sujato) you'll see that what is regarded as 'pleasure' is actually suffering, in the same way the 'pleasure' a cured leper used to feel from cauterizing his wounds was still 'pain and burning' before his cure as much as after, just like holding your flesh over a flame would be pain and burning to you and I, even if we got leprosy and experienced relief from cauterizing ourselves that sensation would still be pain and burning, just not appropriated as such due to the warped perception suffered from a condition (the leprosy), our regarding of sensual gratification as pleasure is the result of warped perception from a chain of conditions (determinations) stringing from including (but not limited to) craving/hunger/thirst/desire to ignorance/delusion (avijja) [particularly, ignorance regarding the nature of phenomena, and the teleological nature of experience], the chain is called paticcasamuppada. However it is still very interesting you proposed the analogy of credit because part of the path is practicing suppression of what's called the five hindrances (sense-desire, ill-will, sloth/torpor, restlessness/anxiety, and doubt); and the experience of finally successfully releasing oneself, even if only temporarily in Jhana, from the hindrance of sense-desire (which would include pleasure), is described as being released from debt (www.accesstoinsight.org/lib/authors/nyanaponika/wheel026.html#des) So, I suppose in short, no, that would not be an accurate conceptualization as regarding the ontology of pleasure; but, it is, in sort of a reversed fashion (debt released opposed to accrued), in congruence with the experiential accounts of pleasure being surmounted.

[@callmegoats]

I feel like this might be a very advanced view which is right and what to strive for but for a beginner maybe even in a more contemporary living space the start with attention on sensation of breath and open peripheral awareness might be a way to start? I am currently practicing with the book The Mind Illuminated and I am currently trying to match the ideas as the book is as far as I know well renowned.

[@AS-cc4nc]

better watch the videos by OnThatPath (youtube channel), his teachings are much simpler and more intuitve than The Mind Illuminated in my opinion.

[@5elements984]

What is water breathing , u asked from ur disciple in this video?

I learned this from Culadasa - mindfulness is the product of attention and awareness.

[@bsways]

I'm not sure I agree with this. I mean most people are busy in their lives and are not always aware of what they are doing. Formal meditation helps me to remember throughout the day. To remind myself etc

[@5elements984]

Pl try not to speak flawless english so that we can understand each word, its dhamma teachings we should drink nectar of each word of dhamma by applying it in our daily practical.
