“I live by choice not chance." -Zazen

[@RockyMillsfatal]

The smile you provide Tu, has a monster behind it. Love you thank you for giving your time for us.

[@thorgeist]

What all men used to be.

[@ユーク-g4y]

禅（zen）は本当に極めようと思うと途方がありません。ですが、禅は誰でも気軽に場所を選ばずに出来ます。さらに言えば寝転がっていても可能です。要は考え方、捉え方です。静の中で自分の鼓動、脈拍、息遣いなどの微かな音を聞きそれを整える事から始めましょう。慣れてくれば完全な無を体現することに努めて下さい。決してリラックスすることではありません。ですが、緊張もしてはいけない。気づけばあなたは、あなたではなく自然の一部になっています。それが禅です。

[@GrandMasterWu777]

Mr. Tu, you are a world-class American Patriot God bless.

[@VikingPreparedness]

It allows you to access, to hear, the “still, small voice”. Living in the present prevents the spirit of fear. Really good stuff - thanks. DOL

Hello from Honduras Respect for your service !!

[@realspitkenny5561]

This is awesome for all of Mental Health! ~ Shalom

[@henrikrod1211]

Tu, you are the man. I’m on a path to bettering myself as well as healing from the past and learning to live in peace and the present moment. Your words and teachings have been such an inspiration to me and I think about them on a daily basis. Thank you for your words and your practice which accompanies me on my journey. I would like to one day take your classes and shake your hand. Peace, sir.

[@Eric-r2k9h]

Thank you for sharing. This has to work well.I believe you on this .Your awesome thank you 🙏👍

[@starxlord9856]

This guy has changed my life and outlook on my life just from me stumbling across his videos. God bless you Tu and thank you for your service, sacrifices, and continued inspiration from your wisdom and knowledge!

[@thefamily2707]

So grateful for you Tu, thank you for your time and contribution to a better America!

[@vajraman2067]

Great Message Tu! We (America) are so skilled as a nation at training & creating spectacular combat warriors of all levels and skill sets, then we toss them away like rags when their commitment is finished. The Ancients knew, that after Life and Death Combat, Men and some Women, had to be "stepped down" before they could be integrated back into civilized (though I wonder these days) society. Meditation was the key methodology on every continent, from every warrior tradition around the world. I would go so far as to suggest that every combat vet, go through a mandatory one-three month, paid, meditation retreat, along with any necessary therapeutic counseling, starting with one to two hours per day increasing to as many as 4-6 hours of meditation practice per day, BEFORE, they are returned to society. As always, a soldier, sailor, marine or airman's loved ones would and should be encouraged to participate. This should be a Military-wide program.

[@Minuteman4Jesus]

Those of us who follow the path of the warrior never leave the path. Our mission simply shifts and new goals are adopted. I believe your idea is awesome and America ought to adopt it!

[@JasonVladimir]

Some solid advice. I'll give it a shot! Thanks for sharing!

[@climbtibet]

Big fan of this guy what he shares saves lives and makes a difference for good in this world

[@TNGUYEN415]

Thank you man. You’re like a brother from another mother. I look up to you man. 🙏🏼

[@fitdadexperiment-3eight797]

Nothing silly about working on positive focus and inner strength. Always appreciate these videos.

[@Freemen2076]

Thank you big brother have a blessed day

[@ironArnold777]

I would love a video of your workout routing, that would be a gift.

[@kaizenz9005]

Wow, u re a real warrior in many aspects of life and look at ur life’s history it’s very tough and hard, but we need to survive and get strong everyday in order to keep alive in these chaotic and unfair world. Let’s evolve spiritually always. Thanks for ur meaningful teachings for every aspects of life.

Thank you. God bless

[@michaelantonio1367]

Tu You are a blessing be blessed.

[@justinblower7598]

Bitching about the snow doesn't change how much snow there is, only how you feel about it. Live now, learn to accept that things are and that your perception of them determines whether they are good or bad. Great message, and a great way of life, but you have to practice at it every day.

[@Blackopsmechanic338]

Tu, thank you. Peace

[@frankammirati3385]

You’re a good man just fro wanting to share this with people you don’t even know .

Great practice to find peace in our daily chaos, thanks for sharing, God bless!

[@bryanp5534]

Great advice brother. As a man of faith my self there are times where I need to get back to my elements and get back to being able to focus on my faith. I'm going to try this. Appreciate you man and God bless!

[@matthewpearce9090]

I was listening to you on a podcast today by chance and then had to look you up on KZbin, this video although no a long one has shined a light on a practice I have forgotten. Thank you for reminding me for this path and thank you for your service brother.

[@bryanp5534]

Also you need some merch on this state of mind! It's a movement and it's needed. 💯💪🏿

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@robertcrier3551]

I love your work, I can't get enough of your wisdom. Not just in physical combat, but emotional and mental combat.

[@JustWhyFFS]

That breathing technique is also great for calming you down after an adrenalin dump.

[@jaredvidler1242]

Great message! I really appreciate your view on Zazen as a practice not a religion. I have the same feelings about yoga.

[@Soul-diering]

Much respect sir! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 💯👊

[@stevevargas1167]

God bless brother thank you

[@caronin]

Solid message and practice as always sir. Thank you.

[@CookbookAdventures]

Thank you. You can't be more present than thinking about the breaths you take. Never thought about that. It totally makes sense.

[@kennyxsd]

Thanks brother

[@truckerrickakamanowar]

Awesome. Appreciate you sir. I will try this.

[@zacharycastor7967]

This is something that I myself struggle with daily... another tool in the box. Thank you for sharing I really enjoy your training videos and "run the gun" teachings as well. Continue my friend.

[@flockofseagulls1421]

You're the man, Tu! We need more videos from you!

[@arose001]

Thank you

[@ThePatriotParadox]

Love to hear u speak, from your story to your phylosaphy on life, always a great and valuable message.

[@Fr0ntLin3]

Thank you very much Tu!!!! I am currently starting my path of learning the ways for Zazen and to become more into the present than worrying about the tomorrows and the past. Thank you!

[@billbradleymusic]

True believer. Good4you, sir .

[@Carreonward]

Love you dude! Appreciate the energy, i got up at 3am this morning after a long, fun filled, slightly drama entwined (mentally) and taxing weekend. I have been bearing lots of pain and guilt from some familial issues I had been the cause of in the last year and these 4 mins of sipping tea after journaling and having a nice warm shower helped keep me cool and compassionate. Thank you and Keep doing you man. PS: You are my favorite COD Operator

[@itskibnz8158]

Just got my TF belt love it thank you for your service!

[@sianwraith1984]

ALL YOUR TIPS HELP....THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMITMENT AND DEDICATION OF WHO YOU BE...🙏🏽

[@alvaroeloredo]

Great advice as always, thanks Tu.

[@timbutler3213]

Love it. Well spoken. I’ll try it. I don’t watch tv but Lord knows we get drowned out in many other ways these days. Good reminder to breath and chill.

[@noahbarnett2010]

This helped so much, thank you sir

[@xghostx3159]

Thank you TU for the message 🙏🥋

[@LionDowsett]

Fuck yeah thanks man. I haven’t quite heard zen and zazen out in such a precise and understandable way.

[@mrarivv0007]

That little moment of doing the practice with him made me think of being like water. That breathing made me feel the same as when I see the ocean and hear the waves crashing in... And out... Just the flow of life. Beautiful teachings man. Thank you for your work and service to others. One love 🤙

[@DJTheMetalheadMercenary]

Great words brother, I'll add that it's also why I love Music and why it's so important for a variety of reasons. It can also aid in these practices, and is well worth utilizing. Be well brother.

[@cutchdoggw1776]

Outstanding! Truly selfless advice!

[@jw5297]

These same ideas were taught to me as a young man to aid me in dealing with anger and heightened aggression, nearing 30 years later, while working in stressful professional settings, I now am calm, focused and a leader who is tasked with getting things done under pressure as my outward appearance and demeanor creates an atmosphere for my colleagues to remain the same, all while my inner voice wants to go rip someone apart. There truly are no stressors out there you cannot cope with and overcome. As Tu said, you must learn to live in that moment, to remain a bobber in turbulent water. That may mean second by second but cool heads prevail.

[@Kingblacsnake]

It all starts with breathing 😮‍💨. I do this daily and it helps me to not react to things when it’s not needed. Also seems to refocus the mind and body! Good message good video!

[@MrMok70]

Great advice, thank you for this Tu

[@olibarahosasa1137]

I am a music producer for a living and every day I am at the frequency where I want to be. Music is good for you, and if you can make it and thus make what you want to hear from the heart, your inner peace and frequency is exactly as it should be. All resonating in harmony, leading to know when you or others are not in harmony. So as soon as I am out of harmony I know how to fix that and remove myself from any dissonance. I live by my inner compass and I keep the needle straightforward. Thanks Tu

[@evanbreen1048]

Tu Lam you absolutely beast🐻

[@traviscsa4289]

Thank you for the video Tu, God bless

Thank you sir for your words of wisdom, it’s enlightening listening to a well traveled worldly being.

[@freedommonger4512]

thank you:)

[@Minuteman4Jesus]

My fiancee is experiencing anxiety from the uncertainty that current events are causing. I'm trying to share with her the peace that comes from meditating on scripture and how God has a plan for us that involves a good outcome: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, said the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." (Jeremiah 29:11) We become what we focus on. If you focus on the positive, on what is holy, that is what you will become through daily discipline.

[@TheGrimKnight]

You should do a video of your tattoos like the story and meaning behind them. And where did you get your bracelet that you wear on your right wrist?

Watch video about US army and saw a VietNamese name on it, starting to search on you, watching you guide others about gun technique, and stop here. I just want to say that i love what you've done and share. Maybe the only common thing we have is VietNamese name and let put the past in the past. I admire you.

[@jayceeinvincible]

Arigato Tu Sensei 🔥🔥🔥

[@raydevens9107]

Much appreciated Tu, much of my breathing and meditation sessions are my daily saving grace, but recently I have recognized a more cognitive thought process that has me focused on improving my "Capacity " to do more and be a better human, instead of my capability to be better. Thank you💪🏼🇺🇸

[@xZENxSAMURAIx]

Fantastic

[@392__hemilife5]

Hey love the videos and all knowledgeable when are gonna update the merchandise site

[@n1c704]

There’s nothing wrong with the “monk like” stuff. Thanks for reinforcing this.

[@jayd3337]

I end up unconsciously breathing in and out at work. Some of my coworker just aggravating as hell, but the breathing helps me truck through. Just learned to live life on my own terms.

[@TheGrimKnight]

You should do a video of your tattoos like the story and meaning behind them. And where did you get your bracelet that you wear on your right wrist? Also you should do a video of what your workout routine is and stretching routine. And how you train for blade fighting and h2h combat.

[@enlightenedpreparingep4006]

@The Dude I know what ya mean Tu’s video on remembering your “why” was exactly what I needed to hear precisely when I need to hear it. The Spirit works in all sorts of ways when your ears and eyes are open to hear/see. I too struggles with living sanely in a world of insanity. A couple of military insights that might be of help for you. They helped me keep my focus when I’m in a shit cyclone. Always faithful, always forward and keep your body fit, your mind sharp & your kit ready. The military has went to shit and this treason has transpired on their watch. We vets need to stay at the ready or as ready as we can be with all factors considered. I’ve trained many Americans with rifles helping them transition to American riflemen or riflewomen . We need to share what we know with as many people as we can to help each other help themselves. Remember iron sharpens iron. Stay strong brother 💪🙏🇺🇸✝️☮️

[@warriorhealth2172]

As a veteran, I thank you Tu! Christianity can blend with other systems of spirituality. Take the good you can from the World

[@swampk9]

I have the numbers 4, 7, 8 posted on my wall in my office. Inhale 4 seconds through nose, hold it for 7 seconds, exhale through mouth for 8. I also have a couple of Bibles, devotional literature, Richard Foster's Sanctuary of the Soul and other inspirational memorabilia on my desk. Nothing wrong with being a Believer and utilizing techniques to improve our mindset and focus.

[@AngelSilverFourtySeven]

Woot woot 👍🏼🇺🇸

[@draleigh8881]

definitly going to use that breathing exercise

Zen, living the now. Relax completely, keep weight underside, focus on your center of gravity and expressing one's force and retaining it back is achieved through one's breathing cycle. Simply Zen...emptiness---

[@SuperVonKiller]

Good stuff Tu..
