One of the reasons I make sure to watch your videos is because from the beginning…these are concepts that at least seem to be not only what you’ve studied but what you reflect deeply upon. It resonates differently. It doesn’t just seem informative, but as if you have considered carefully your own path within these principles. I wondered as I listened today if this post was because of your own channel growth…if you had been considering it as well. The viewpoints you express are fleshed out. Thank you for sharing…and may your success continue in each area of your life. 🌿

A man had a horse that ran away. When his neighbor found out, he came over and said, "that's terrible". The man said, "you never know". The next day, the horse came back and was leading two wild horses. The neighbor said "that's wonderful". The man said, "you never know". The man's only son was training one of the horses and fell off and broke his leg. The neighbor came over and said "that's terrible". The man said, "you never know". The Cossack army came through the village and recruited everyone. They took all the young men. But they didn't take the son because he had a broken leg. Again, the neighbor said, "that's wonderful". And again, the man said, "you never know". -from a story told by Ram Dass

"because as long as you're wishing, you're not living" It hits me deep, bro

even if we got rich or famous overnight somehow, we'd realise almost immidiately that we're not ready for it at all

When you don’t possess a lot, you can finally come into possession of yourself. I’m into that lately.

Anybody binged watched all his videos and now waits for him to drop them lol. I literally found you less than 2 weeks ago and I have already watched all of them.

I wonder how you got into philosophy and at what age. You have clearly done much reading, studying, internalizing, and applying. Thank you for your service!

You give much peace. This is such a great channel

as an introvert, I've never wanted fame. Wealth would be nice, sure, but that's not really a thing one needs...and wealth can bring it's own set of headaches.

Exactly. To the detriment of life, the present moment. We miss so much, looking ahead ahead or in the past. The simple things. They are magical. Nature is magical! People are too. :) We are nature. Simple and so complex, at the same time. Our bodies remind us about survival and clench in frugal times. It is difficult to feel this clenching and nobody taught us how to care take this feeling. So instead we " think a solution". It is so intelligent, these protective mechanisms created by our minds. So creative. Black, white and so much grey inbetween. Our mind tries to protect us from feeling what is unknown, unfamiliar. Or reminds us of something hurtful, we experienced in the past. (So no, we are not going there anymore, clench, clench...) . See the leaves be danced by the wind in the sun and shadow reflection... Unique. I will never see this again. Not like this. And forgot for a moment about what was missing. Precious what you share here and how, in times of manifestation circus. Thank you.

I keep noticing that things one wishes for eventually come true, but they come in another form, not the form expected. I find this fascinating, and already expect in advance that the form in which things will come is utterly unpredictable, because even if one imagined 10 possible scenarios, the 11th will happen 😊 so it makes no sense imagining much

That is true frugality helps from losing yourself in materialism.

Wise words, thank you

I love this channel even when I'm not capable to understand hole message because I'm learning English language however your advices are very useful for my life, I like this sentence "wishing for something is admitting a lack" thank you

Brilliant. Thank you!!

Great words young man. I can relate to a lot of what you say in this video and yes, for the first time I admit it, I have been "damaged" by chasing false dreams. And I admit I wasted and lost a lot of money, time and more in the pursuit of my dream woman or so I thought they were. Now I don't wish for any woman or anything. I just work towards my own success. Discipline I learned today, is the key to everything.

I wish I could give you a million likes and a million subscribers more.

Yes be careful what you wish …its resonance with mercury retrograde and eclipse energy … what wonderful intuition!! … for coming year earth energy changing..chaos will happen because change happen especially energeticly… stay neutral and love yourself more and more

The only thing I'm wishing for is less chronic physical pain as I recover from back surgery.

this video was tailored for me, thank u. everytime i get on your channel i see hope for all of us, and this channel is a reminder to me that good people still exist. every video of yours is valuable and can be watched multiple times, each time leaving you with a new insight!

Thank you for articulating your thoughts the way you do. Sometimes we need to be reminded of all of this.

True wealth is the inner connectedness we feel towards one another ❤

Wow, amazing amazing video. Your content is rich and insightful. Thank you.

To pursue goals brings us experiences that questions our values along the way. If we get to know ourselves through positioning ourselves within them. We realize our wishes already take form around us. Knowing our own wishes too are transforming and evolving within also can makes us content with what's already on the way...

you are like a friend and wise man everyone would like to have in their lives!

Definitely gave me a new perspective. Some things that I thought were definitely negative things, I am now learning how to get think of a positive in it, I will train this part of my mind and learn to be more grateful

Very well said ,my friend, always looking forward for your next content, Cheers!

Finally having a thing is not the same as wanting a thing 🖖 Thank you for truly in depth and powering video

im so glad i found this channel! thank you

thank you for your humble and wise words! ❤

If we are very much in tune with who we truly are, we would not change regardless of how our circumstances change. If we are fundamentally good, material possessions won't corrupt us and indeed they would give us more tools to do good. The opposite is true for people who are fundamentally bad.

ever since i found your channel, i feel so much more rooted in the decisions I make and the goals i orient myself towards. thank you for helping me reach a sense of clarity in a time where our minds are so cluttered

Looks like Atesh wished for some sun and ended up with a bit too much. 😂 Love your channel, Atesh. Thank you.

Thank you articulating your thoughts in the way that you do :) you are putting out important messages which are very much needed in today’s world ❤️

I really needed this. I've been hating myself with how stupid I feel in comparison to everyone around me. Friends/work, etc. I still want to get "smarter" at these things I'm really quite bad at but I have not looked at other aspects of myself either.

Thanks man! This made me grounded today. 👍 Well said.

Thank you for your videos, your insights are unbelievable! 💗

We really need this on Spotify or something. Really great content I totally appreciate ur work. It helps me alot

Thank you so much for making your videos. You help me find a secure base in myself. Thanks to you, I’ve started experiencing life in a much clearer, calmer, healthier way. All the best wishes to you! Thank you ❤

Thank You for sharing those thoughts 🙏

Thanks for every single word. It’s actually my week resume, thinking loud.

Deficiency is the way society alinates the ones that they cant contrôle

I really need to grasp your advice and act on it. I'm needing that push, that forceful determination to work on all what's lacking in my life. Thank you for your message.

I enjoyed this video because it resonated with me so much. When I “accomplished” what most would define as success, I wasn’t happy. I missed out on precious moments with my loved ones. But most of all, I lost a sense of self. As I embark on this rediscovery of self, your videos give me much to think about. Thank you!

I’m lacking funds currently and I’m not the brightest crayon… but I’m really glad I watched this video. I didn’t realize frugality was a superpower. I’ve been on the side of 13:13 and it’s a harrowing experience. Thanks for the content, I love your videos ❤

Thanks for yet another great and easily digestible message. I have been reflecting on this topic a lot lately while reading Dostoevsky and making some life decisions. Your work is always appreciated!

One of my favourite videos on this channel. Resonates visercally. Thank you.🙏🏽

When we get what we wish for, it will be instead of what we have now. Look forward to what we will have, but appreciate what we have now while we still have it. It is all good material

Thank you Sir. Your wisdom makes so much sense to me, and I truly needed to be reminded of the wise words you spoke. Thank you 😊

"There's always an advantage in any disadvantages" i am thankful that i found ur channel it helps alot, i become obsessed with ur video, greetings from morocco ❤❤

Hey brother what amazing video man! Your videos speak to me on a profound level, like a conversation with my soul. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. Cheers from Toronto! And I wish you the best 🙏🏼

To emphasize how much I appreciate your words, Having been an avid meditator for years, going through crisis of personal faith of sorts - I cannot imagine how fucking useful you are and your words are to us. Please keep up the good words and keep these videos coming, I really am enjoying these.

This video is so on time in my life currently. Glad I subscribed.

This whole channel is such a beautiful treasure trove. Looking forward to watch all of your videos. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.❤

"Wishing means not living and feeling there's a lack." This is the answer to my recent question: why the eastern scriptures say that we should dissolve all our desires and surrender to the almighty, whereas western culture depicts more of having a desire and manifesting it, these two are contradictory viewpoints. But now I know it's better to accept it as it is rather than wishing for something to happen in a certain way! Thank you for solving my doubt ❤😊

Thank you for the wonderful way you express invaluable wisdom 💚

This bit of wisdom and insight you have shared today has helped me start my day on the right foot. I especially liked when you brought up the point about, what excuse or deficiency do we have for not living virtuously and being more honest? I had to write that in my journal and that is some thing I will ponder for the remainder of today as a lesson. Thank you for your efforts.

Whenever i put on my device one of your videos, i know that i will be thinking in a different way for a few minutes. It gaves me the chance to see through my mind clearly. Thanks!!

Nothing can enlighten our spirit like a clear encouraging thought. Universal, based on truth. Derived from the inner reflection of the outside world. One more outstanding speech of yours. 🌌

To wish is to live in the future, but we are only really alive in the present

Finally!! You have uploaded another one. We were waiting for it. Thank you!

I think the more i am growing up & getting comfortable in my own skin.. my way of living & Wishing is also changing & i myself feel surprised seeing my journalling style has changed a lot..my hard days hv shaped me, my life choices,my goals & the persons i interact with.. whatever i do,whatever i wish.. i make sure that i have peace within me & i'm satisfied & grateful for everything in my life. A sense of self, a sense of being is there..

I live by this advice each and every day. It’s like I’m hearing myself talk right now. Coming from you… I know I’m on the right path. You just made my day! God bless!

Very inspiring. Thank you!

I like you, your dog, the scenery, the messages, it looks like a movie; most of all I am attractted to your spirit

Your videos really make my day. Thank you for sharing 🙏

By highlighting specific examples and providing thorough analysis, you made it clear that achieving what one desires doesn't necessarily bring happiness and can lead to negative outcomes. Furthermore, you also addressed the recognition and utilization of opportunities from weaknesses, encouraging us to develop self-awareness and adaptability.

Thank you!

Interesting video Great story Makes people think more seriously 🤔 💥👏

Listening to this was the perfect start to my day💖📜✨ Hugz from Oregon🌲🌞🦦

"So be careful what you wish for, 'cause you just might get it And if you get it, then you just might not know what to do with it 'Cause it might just come back on you ten-fold" - EMINEM

Hi, new to your channel. You are so wise. I did everything you say in this video, did a lot (for people I didn't like) and got nothing back.

I agree with most of your opinions here and listening to your discussions is so calming. After watching your channel, I feel a little wiser/smarter. However, frankly , I disagree with you here (not completely ). Wishes can become fulfilled goals, so wishing is not always a negative thing. So, I got to disagree with your statement , "If you 're wishing, you're not living". How do we set goals for ourselves? We first wish them to be true. Now I get it, if you only wish and envy, that is not living. And, the price can be too high when attaining some wishes (materialism is damaging). I suppose that is what you are saying here? I believe most people are of "average "intelligence and those with "average" intelligence can do very well for themselves, in the trades like plumbing , etc I don't believe there are many people who are below average in intelligence. I believe what you are describing , is simply ignorance (the under-educated). And yeah, most people (despite their IQ), can do better for themselves, if they work hard and are frugal. Great discussion! Thank you.

Incredible insight and reflection ❤

I agree with everything you're saying, but women dont generally take this view in practice. These are male concepts. And men end up living according to the desires of women, one way or another. An unpopular idea but completely true and provable.

Another profound point of discussion from Accepting the Universe. These are not "complicated" issues but a reflection of a society completely lost to consumerism and the desire of wanting and the sadness of not having. Defining ourselves by what we have and yearning for what we don't have regarding possessions is an awful place to be. That said, it will take great courage and determination to "break free" from first the thinking and then the desire. What we are really missing is knowing who we are FIRST.

Few years ago I was shaving my legs and wished I woudn't have to do it. Aaand the universe replied giving me Alopecia universalis🤷‍♀️

Such amazing channel!!

Material things secondary to friendships and inner peace.

Thank you so much,

Thank you for this video.

I’ve learned that lesson, the hard way. Never again

Thank you, again, another video that has been so helpful. I’d love to know your name, and more about your education.

I like what I read about No one knows enough . Everyone has strengths and weaknesses.

Do you maybe have some book recommendations on this topic? I would like to read more, but I don't know where to start. Love the advice 😊

It's inspiring to embrace the stoic perspective that there's no inherent good or bad, only our subjective judgments. From this vantage point, even the most challenging situations offer opportunities if we choose to see them that way. When someone internalizes this outlook and actively applies it in their life, it becomes something truly admirable. It's like mastering the art of alchemy, transforming hardships into stepping stones for growth and success. So, striving for that level of awareness and resilience is indeed a worthy pursuit, a beacon of wisdom in a world often clouded by judgments and preconception :)

Thank you so much sir 🎉

❤thankyou for your advice really works, ; much ❤ and respect

Nice video, very interesting. Thank you.

Thank you very much for your videos. I greatly appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge. Would find it very valuable if you could compile a reading list.

didn't knew that soldier boy could give me such wise advice

Hey there! Ive been loving your videos. After seeing your "why do you postpone yourself video" I actually went ahead and bought your recommended letters on ethics book by Seneca after only reading the penguin version. I'm curious, do you think we could ever get a book shelf collection video? Or have you pick out some of your favourites? Thanks! Keep up the great work

I can give you an example of this that doesn't hold up. Autism. Spiky neurological profile. Having gifts in one area leaves gaps in other areas. A lot of people think spectrum is one dial turned up high or low; it's not, it's like 16 dials turned up and down. I promise you the gifts don't make up for the social gaps. It cost me my entire career and ostracized me from family, friends, spouse. Didn't matter how amazingly talented I was in my role, people didn't like me because they sensed something different about me and couldn't control me so it's always adversarial.

Speaking from the wishing money side… I have billionaire relatives. They are very overloaded with responsibilities. They are greedy as F. They don’t care about the wellbeing of others. They have to put on an appearance in public. . In my own understanding. I tell people to be very careful. So say they want a mansion when they “win the lotto”. Well they never understood that you need two pool boys on tap. 2 house cleaners. A chef. A chauffeur. Personal assistant. It’s not peaceful anymore. It’s like being in a hotel 🏨

It is a broad topic and thanks for sharing. What we think we become 😉

Nice chat with your follower ... ❤️
