Whenever I feel stressed, nervous and anxious I listen to Ajahn. Dear Ajahn your voice it self makes me calm! Thank you!

[@belhypotheque6417]

You were on fire tonight Ajahn Brahm. My husband chuckled a lot. If you get sick of being a monk you can have a second job as a stand up comic. Love your talks (associate member).

I'm on the fence about "meant to be", but I can tell you, this is exactly what I needed right now.

[@danw918]

Yeah, it happens like that sometimes, doesn't it?

[@stevemathews9668]

Thankyou , like all your talks I resonate with everything you said. 🙏🙏🙏

[@mcarolangouffray]

My brother call this ‘living in the wreckage of the future’ so true! Love your talks! From Washington DC

Ajahn Brahm talks really instilled faith and encouragement and strengthened our Dhamma practice like a dose of ENERGY DRINK !! 😇🙏 SADHU !!

[@TisiphoneSeraph]

Thank you to the person who asked about attachment around pain - it was exactly what I was wondering about as I watched this talk. Thank you too to Ajahn Brahm for the answer.

There were a few monks that were visiting back when I was sitting in our Sangha, and one of them said once "thank you for bringing your Zazen with you over here." Possibly my favorite all-time quote.

南無阿彌陀佛

[@michelewills6350]

Seems I find you and just the one of your talks I need at that time in my life 🎉🎉thankful

[@annagoebiowska229]

I want to become a Buddhist nun because I think that I will help my beloved Peter more in this way than if I became his wife.

Basis of Budhism is reincarnation and law of karma . The necessity of Budhism is impermanence , sufferings and concept of no soul . Thanks 🙏🙏🙏

[@MyCaterpillar2]

Budhism make one phsycologicaly stronger 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks

[@generalu.gooshe]

Yes. Cool. I like your work very much. Do you have discrete math papers? :)

[@cyberpunkworld]

That's not what you'd call "common" anxiety ;) Lower your breath. Train to lower your breath. Five times per day. It is a... "military" attack, if you want...? :)

[@bogdanjablonski7735]

Got some beer

[@supremeplustv1892]

He is trying to explain budhism ,Which make one phsycologicaly stronger . 🙏🙏🙏Thanks

[@generalu.gooshe]

Hello. Keep your best piece for the end game, mate. Hah. Yeah, look-it-up, now, quick. Far out. It's good table manners, it is common sense, it is folk wisdom. That makes me a little concerned here.

[@CruisingWithElena]

Terrible story .. I didn’t like that grass hopper story.

[@grumblekin]

If you sit in a robe all day in a quiet temple with all your physical needs met, what anxiety do you have? Let's see this guy on a 3rd shift factory line for 6 months and then he can speak from experience

[@TisiphoneSeraph]

It's worth remembering he lead a lay life before becoming a monk. And that is not what monks do - they rely on the lay community for their needs and there are times in which the community doesn't or can't meet them. They also as he said spend a lot of time building and giving spiritual care to others. As someone who initially found talks like these when I was working hellish 3rd shift jobs, this advice was helpful. Then and now. I hope you're able to find what you need.

[@supremeplustv1892]

This is an effort of watching himself with the assistance of teachings of Lord Budhdha . Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
