The power of meditation | Gelong Thubten

[@AlwaysManifesting]

Meditation is just life changing. I meditate daily, if I miss a day or so I really notice a difference. I feel so much better and have more energy after meditating....life is more effortless. The ability to REWIRE YOUR THINKING through meditation is such a GIFT.

I began meditation daily several months ago. This helped me stop pushing and to just be. I liked the part about one-ness over compassion. I will admit- my life has changed for the better since began meditating. It’s now more soul vs ego/personality.

I feel like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz I had the power all along... this is one of the most beautiful seminars I have ever seen because it is awoke something deep within that was always there... thank you I deeply appreciate mind Valley for inviting such awesome guests and giving me the privilege to watch it I was lost for so long love you peace and harmony and Rich abundant to you all 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🖤

This is a good talk for those beginning out on the path of meditation. Sooner or later one moves beyond this. You do not have to 'dedicate' your meditation to the rest, when you realise that you are one with the rest.

[@Vittorio792]

Really helpful! I drove deep into Love while he was talking, I think he gave me something very important. Intention on loving the world, other beings.. That intention if felt gives you the possibility to change really. I got amazed how fast a bad sensation became a loving smile into seconds of deep feeling. Amazing!

[@Lostandfoundhere]

The person who posted this and Teacher Gelong lama, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. In my second last retreat, even I went thru similar situation where I lost sleep for a long time. eventually, between eyes and in heart, I felt a deep- unpleasant pain. And this was on. 24*7 for weeks. I asked my teacher about it and he told me to see them( observe) in meditation. Gosh !I got scared to meditate. I wanted to run away. When I came back from retreat, accidentally I came across this video and it was exactly in line with my biggest doubts.I saw this video once again before my last retreat and I tried what Gelong lama said. And I was surprised to find, "it really worked!!" I didn't try to find anything during vipassana but still I could disintegrate. Wow!! A knowledge is a knowledge, source of it doesn't matter. - metta

[@CRHall-ud9mq]

Thank you for sharing this wisdom. The very best meditation I ever experienced was being in my own space in a field, sat by a chosen tree, meditating on drifting clouds, and on another occasion I meditated on a blade of grass. I did this for what felt like an expansive period of time (actually, probably about 30-60 minutes), and I felt an inner peace and completeness which I have never gained, been able to experience, with anything else!

[@NaveenKumar-tx6wu]

Very much needed this knowledge at this movement of my life. Got clarity for my deepest quest. Wondering how many dimensions are there for meditation and awareness. Thank you Vishen for inviting such good personality for the show to bring changes in humanity.

The world needs more of this wisdom. We are becoming robots just to survive. Human life is becoming meaningless. We need to put into practise compassion , kindness and generosity. The world must work like a village if it is to survive. Now we have artificial intelligence being pushed by the billionaires and the technocrats of this world. What a degradation of humanity.

Devan you seem to be right to me in this regard! Buddha did not talk of faith..happiness etc. He said start from where you are! That there is suffering in the world or you have some questions! Don't start from love,compassion or happiness!(if you put all these first in the start you manipulate)

[@nima793]

I didn`t know you before this video, I realized a lot. are you a Buddha? you are explaining the concepts of the enlightenment in such a simple way that I never have heard before. Now I understand what is the meaning of compassion when Osho talks about it. It is not feeling sorry for other poor people.on the contrary, it is feeling oneness. not me nor another party is inferior. Thank you

[@PeterOzanne]

If I may be so bold as to offer a few words...... Teachers don't generally say "Yes, I'm a Buddha" if asked. But I heard Ajahn Achalo (on "Insight Timer" app - good, and free!) say the Dalai Lama regards even people like Donald Trump, or Chinese prison guards, as potential Buddhas - they're just confused and messed up. You may find there are plenty of teachers from various traditions, Theravada Buddhist, Tibetan, USA Insight Meditation schools, etc., who give clear and supportive guidance like Gelong Thubten. Btw, I went to that Scottish island too (it's called Holy Island, just off Arran, and is an offshoot of Samye Ling Centre in Dumfriesshire) - but only for a weekend retreat ;-) Best wishes.

This helped me jump over a hurdle with meditation and trying to just BREATH... Myself with COPD it has been more on focussing on the fact of trying to breath... I find if I don't focus on the breath so much as focussing on getting into my heart space... although mentally still find it hard to get in this space when I sadi to myself to DO instead of just BE and watch and let go .... forget looking for the high.... it will come over time when we stop looking - This is just me.... I don't know about anyone else - most times I end up I sleep.. and these times it is a case of let the body do it's thing.. don't fight it . This was something at one time of becoming a monk... although was a monk / warrior in a past life . . going with the flow can be very hard , but can be overcome - in time

[@jalaluddinahmadshaharudin1106]

This is the most useful tip for me. I was born a psychic and already had kundalini awakening at 11. By the 17 (1970),I learnt to meditate from Richard Hitleman book, but living in a Moslem household, I received a lot of reprisal from my mom. Going to college did not improve matters. By then I discovered that I intuitively know things that I could pass my exams without going to class or even read books. However ever since a child I had entities attachment as a result from black magic that impedes any spiritual and worldly progression. Now at the age of 65, I become a sponge that absorb negative vibes from people and just sleep it off, as living among the Moslem community made me stopped meditating 30 years ago! The last time I meditate regularly was in New York back in 1989, when I acquired the ability to remember past lives and communicating with higher selves, plants and animals. I have forgotten how to ground and transmute negative energy. Thanks for the kind reminder!

Excellent talk. I'm long time meditator, but I'm still a beginner. Every sitting is the first one. This talk emphasised, to me, the shortcomings of our educational system, being very much in the mind and how we project ourselves, losing sight of our true essence. Of course his talk was more than just that, that for me stuck.

[@MindvalleyTalks]

[@pratikkawade4861]

I really really relate with him When he talks about those depressed feelings of falling continuously and being stabbed....

[@johnnowakowski4062]

Meditation is a commitment to a spiritual act which is connecting you to your source, where the price of that connection must be the willingness to give up some concept of yourself where what you gain exceeds what you lose. This is the paradox of clearing the lines to that spiritual connection. This is why compassion is both a precursor and result of meditation because they are mutually compatible as to their unconditional nature...

[@transformyourself6022]

Thanks for the video. I like how Gelong Thubten shares his experiences and insights so genuinely in this talk. This video is motivating for me to start meditating consistently. I am planning on meditating 1 hour every day for 2020, recording myself and making weekly time-lapse videos explaining the different meditation technique I used for the week and my day to day experience. I hope I can communicate the information in my future videos as well as you did in this one.
