Namo Amitabha Buddha from Brazil.

[@mwmingram]

Thank you. Really fantastic. It seems to share a lot with the Tibetan relationship with Avalokitesvara and the mani mantra. I particularly like the way Alan explains the way that the words Amitahba Buddha themselves are invested with so much meaning and value. Also the way that the Pure Land teachings seem to so elegantly condense the wider meanings of Buddhism.

Many westerners turn to Buddhism for spiritual development they experiencing great happines

[@AverageBuddhist88]

I turned to Buddhism because I believe it’s the literal truth and that the Buddha was fully enlightened and omniscient. But yeah most other westerners turn to it for spiritual development and happiness.

It is surprising to me that Buddhism was not taught to him in his early life. I have had assumptions about that.

[@sdas25985]

There is a way to realize Nirvana by your self. It was taught my Shakyamuni Buddha. I respect pure land, but it's offensive to the other 99,000 lines of sutra from Shakyamuni Buddha, which explain exactly how our "lowly being" can realize Nirvana here and now.

May all living beings obtain illumination.

Namo Amitabha!

[@johnrkillick3342]

Very good concise explanation :) The part about being in the 'same ocean' as ALL sentient beings is very important for me to hear right now, as I need to focus on compassion for all beings .Thank you Raymond and Alan :) Namo Amituofo!!!

[@weewilly2007]

sense of being undermined can lead to all sorts of qualities that are really methods to affirm the self. Like shoring up the psyche in the face of tidal onslaughts that erode ground, that humans physically as well as mentally operate on.

[@meiyeelong5790]

Appreciate video content! Excuse me for butting in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you considered - Marnaavid Unexplainable Intervention (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a smashing exclusive product for learning how to hack your flow state minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my m8 at very last got excellent success with it.

I don't like polygamists.. it doesn't matter what religion or philosophy or whatever I am in to. And I get deep into whatever I get into. It doesn't matter, they stir a rage within me that has never failed.

[@vajraloka1]

Is it legal or illegal to practice Buddhism in mainland? I see many temples there ,and incense offerings

[@yaluzhang2695]

[@of8ightandse7en16]

guy not really talking about buddhism from my pov. moral development is just another aspect of egoic self. buddhism isn't about being a morally person, but to realize the emptiness of all things, and the unity of samsara and nirvana; that 'there is no PERSON' other than the ego. people often misunderstood being religious or spiritual is to be a 'kind' 'nice' human and to reincarnate to better realms. Hui Neng said, purify your mind(ego), then everywhere is pure land. even this human realm is pure land. you dont need to die to go to sukhavati.

KRISHNA IS TRUTH AMITABHA IS FICTION

[@camaradael2424]

Your Krishna is very different from you. He is without ego. You are filled with ego. Krishna does not deserve a follower like you. You're a disgrace calling Krishna's name yet your attitude is as low as a cow dung.

[@jaxthewolf4572]

You sound like a Christian or a Muslim. I can't imagine a hindu going "my way is truth, your way is false"

[@user-Void-Star]

@@camaradael2424 Krishna has ego if you read his story.
