Absolutely love you. I have been watching your videos at least once a day sometimes more. I am a 71 year old female and had been trying to get out of a severe depression. Watching, studying and practicing what you teach has changed me . I feel I am in a new beginning. Spent almost 6 weeks in detaching myself from material things. I found that what I own is connected to my past. As a let go of things I let go of the emotions that I no longer need. Today I realest myself from the past by letting go of about 500 items. My apartment now is less chaotic . I is a new journey for me. The you are with me. Thank me you !

*These words are not mine.* These are the words the Ruach HaKodesh (YAHUAH's Set-Apart Spirit) uttered through me when I prayed to YAHUAH; asking him what *he wants* me to say, knowing the truth. "Know that YAHUAH is the name of the Most High and YAHUsha is the name of The Son. Come out of her, my people, who have fallen into her deceit. Who know not my name and say they love me. I have made myself known. I have heard you and I am here. There are many who are yours to be saved. I am he who knows all that you are. Come to me, here are they who are mine. Make haste to come, here are we. Give in to them who speak of me, they are yours. I am here for you. Know that all is for them, here are we. Give not to them that are against me. I am he who sees all you do. Come to me out of her, all are here for me. Do what I say. Out of her, come. All are here." Exodus 3:13-15 KJV 13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. John 5:43 KJV 43 *I am come in my Father's name,* and ye receive me not: *if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.* 2 Corinthians 6:17 KJV 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and *touch not the unclean thing;* *and I will receive you.* Isaiah 52:6-7 KJV 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I. 7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! 2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV 1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) Romans 10:1-3 KJV 1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. Romans 10:13-17 KJV 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 *How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?* 15 *And how shall they preach, except they be sent?* as it is written, *How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!* 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. *For Esaias saith,* Lord, *who hath believed our report?* 17 *So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.* Nahum 1:7 KJV 7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and *he knoweth them that trust in him.* Hebrews 3:15 KJV 15 *While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.* Isaiah 52:11 KJV 11 *Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing;* go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord. John 14:15 KJV 15 *If ye love me, keep my commandments.*

This might be the greatest Dhamma talk I've listened to. Thank you. As for smiling: Smiling helps you relax. A pleasant smile is attractive. When you smile, you do not look intimidating. Smiling makes you look friendly. People will be less afraid to approach you. They will be more comfortable with you than they would be with someone who wears a serious (possibly judgmental) expression. Smiling doesnt mean leering or grimacing creepily. It means looking pleasant, happy and relaxed. It makes you approachable. When you smile, you look confident. People will listen to you and trust you more when you express confidence with a kind smile. Again, thank you, Phra Nick..

Thank you so much for this video. I recently moved, and in the store I saw a couple of Monks. I Googled and found we have a couple of centers where I live and I started going to talks and meditations. Then, the universe sent me you and your teachings. My mind has always been a tornado. For the past three months, my mind has been much more calm, and I am much more relaxed and peaceful. I’m still learning how not to react at silly things, but I’ve had a lot of trauma and I’m working through it little by little. I took notes, I’m going to do the three day home retreat, and keep learning. Thank you, Venerable Nick! Thank your brothers also! ❤ from Virginia I hope to make it to the monastery in Georgia!

Practicing gratitude resonates deeply with me. A few years ago, I started writing down 3 things I can be grateful for every morning and it changed my life and the way I perceive the world. It also changed my own projections onto the world. I practice in keeping mindful of the 8 tools you've given, bringing myself back time and time again, plus realizing that living in the slow and gentle lane has become precious to me. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and the helpful practices I can use in mine. Love and harmony to you Dear Nick!

Ever since I learned about the dhamma..

I still keep my christian faith and use the dhamma as a tool to create a structure.. good thing about catholicism is that they recognize that other religions also contain true and holy elements (rays of the same truth) like interbeing

I, in turn, have shared w my friends & family members. I am learning to bring a more Peaceful mind to myself! All I have to share today, is the fact that what is best in life can be my focus. I spent my thinking now on the merits I can gain from helping others to follow your program.. I am anxious for that to be my gift on this Thanksgiving day. Thank you for becoming aware of your true purpose in life . And for sharing with all of us along with your brother monks.

Venerable Nick this is outstanding teaching. When you were talking about being grateful and living in gratitude it reminded me that not only is gratefulness necessary for but also not caring what other people think about you because you will have anxiety try to live up to what others think of you also understanding our mortality that we brought nothing into the world and we will carry nothing out but having food and covering being content.

Hello Nick, I just wanted to tell you about my experience with "The Buddhist Cleanse". I have done it this week, with 2 modifications to the rules because of health reasons: I must eat every 2 hours, so I changed it to not eat out of boredom. I also allowed myself to lay down on a high surface because I tend to overexert myself otherwise and not rest enough, but I disallowed doing that out of boredom just to pass time. I discovered that time went more slowly for me. Previously I always had the impression time is gone too soon, I don't get stuff done in a day. But I think I was just sucked in by technology and entertainment, then unsatisfied with what I accomplished. During the cleanse day I cleaned the whole flat and still had time after that. I have trouble with fatique since 2 years due to long COVID and POTS, so I need to rest a lot, especially when standing for a while. That in turn makes me feel bad because I cannot do as much as I want to in the house that involves having to stand. But the "boring" rest without entertainment during is more beneficial for me than binge watching movies, and as dicovered during the cleanse, I still can do more than I thought. Anyways, thank you very much for your advice and guidance. I will use this knowledge from now on by restricting the times I watch movies and KZbin to the evening hours.

Nick, that’s awesome! Thank you so much for sharing this! When you started to talk about sweeping the forest I have to admit that I had to laugh at first. But when you talked about the effect it had on you I started to understand what my Tàijíquán practice is actually good for, even when I’m not motivated. It also includes a standing meditation but also routines that are practiced over and over again (the so-called forms) and I guess that it should have about the same effect as sweeping the forest. Now I have to admit that I still couldn’t figure out how to practice on a daily basis but I hope that I’ll get there someday.

All resonated, but right now here most practical with immediate effect: practice gratitude ; mindful chores. 🙏🍵 Some meditation, but doing chores can also become meditation.

for me the most difficult of the 8 steps is recollecting good deeds. I always feel am not doing good enough, so when i tried recollecting, I ended up crying. So i started with small deeds. I gave food to stray animals, ok thats a good deed. I helped my father with his work, that's maybe another. I listened to dhamma talks, so that's three. But initially it was overwhelming for me .

Oh yes we need to train ourselves to do it daily. It’ll take some reprogramming 😊
