I enjoy his talks. great sense of humor and thoughtful reflections. 🍁

Thank you John

You should really spend more time listening to you imam and practice your own religion rather than listening or watching videos you don't agree with. I hope you will refrain from making such silly comments and spend your time actually watching videos relating your own religion; you will be more at peace with yourself.

You don't make sens... 🤔 Who are you talking to?

[@tamerapalihawadana]

Thank you for making this sermon public, take what you need from it to make your life better and make others lives better to make better world for all. This is what we lack in this world of hate guilt and arrogance. This should be obvious to EVERY one regardless of colour, race, sex and how many of us really practice and have the will to change it. Is the will to change who you are vs will not want to change to make the world a better place. LIVE IT. Making negative comments shows up who you are so I would refrain from creating yourself an image in a public domain , where your endeavours to be known for someone with a valid comment has the opposite effect. Reason you comment is to make comment valid and make think about now and not the past. May Loving Kindness grow in you all

@drav1dan - there is a lot diversity in Islam. what is practiced in Saudi Arabia and Iran are not practiced in other parts in the world such as in Southeast Asia. Some Islamic countries do not as u say "chop their arms" and are less radical in their means. Thats what i believe drosera was trying to say. U CANT GENERALISE THESE ISMLAMIC BELIEFS to the whole of our "ummah" (islam community)

[@varapunya]

Thank you v ery much for such a wonderful talk again... i love it

When my nephew went to a morgue and saw what he saw. Till this day I don't know what body they showed him. The very next day he looked so different and attitude changed faster than fast.

[@fester5893]

Fantastic talk!!

[@always-stay-positive5187]

Good talk. Now on the UK people are guilty after eating what they term "unhealthy". We should be thankful that we have food.

Thanks you for a very inspirational talk. I truly appreciate it.

[@michellecheng6817]

No guilt for ourselves ❤. We are human beings and human beings are limited.

"That anger, violence, tit for tat, that's what creates all this pain, misery, wars, aggression, violence, and separation in our world."

[@urgulp1554]

Thankful that somebody is talking sense about what it means to love life. So many people talk of fleeting experiences when summing up what it is to love life. It is so much greater than most people's narrow conclusions. Life is an immense gift and journey of learning. It is sheer bliss to be playing a part in this intricate pantomime we call life. Love to you all 🙏

Bhudhist sermon does not involve donation. People do donation on certain ceremony only. There is no Sunday service, no thigh, no percentage amount specified if you do donation.

[@drav1dan]

@drosera99: What I have pointed out about Islam is exactly what is practised in places like Iran & Saudi Arabia. If pointing out these facts that are unflattering to Islam seems hostile to you, then it is your problem. Buddhism does not say one has to agree with everybody & never try to point out unpleasant facts. Buddhism is not about constantly flattering people. You need to read about Islam as well as Buddhism.

[@drav1dan]

@drosera99: Just because Islam has been practiced for a long time doesn't mean it is has no faults. I pointed out some facts about Islam. But you conjured up monolithic statements in your imagination. You did a very silly, delusional thing. Telling people whom you have never met that they are hostile without understanding the facts they point out, is just arrogant. You need to tone down your ego first before you start preaching on the internet.

Please don't ever get rid of this KZbin channel...

[@alfulani5]

KIND ADVICE TO ANYONE WHO IS THINKING OF TAKING UP BUDDISM! Every human is born with dignity! And you have the right to keep that. Don't end up walking the streets of Asia barefoot, dressed in rags, begging for food, and kissing the feet of monks!!

[@drav1dan]

@drosera99: To ignore the facts that I have pointed out about Islamic countries and cling to an imaginary notion of a large diversity in Islam borders on the absurd.
