This man changed my life!

When the world needed him most….he returned

Along with this video I am going to focus on my breath and meditate while I am helping my father in the hospital with cancer this is a form of Social Work. This is a surprise thing in my life and it is a big change and I will be at the hospital doing new things and talking to new people. This will be my wholeness and connecting with my better self.

I really need words of comfort :( I’ve been battling cancer for 3 years and staying positive as possible but today I got the worst possible news. My stage 4 cancer treatment is not responding and they are giving me 2-3 months to live. I’ve been looking up other philosophies other than Christianity because it just doesn’t resonate with me. I really need to accept my fate by I am massively depressed and anxious. I’m so afraid of dying. I’m only 26 years old, why me? I’m sorry if I’m coming off as whining, I just really need comfort. I’ve been crying my eyes out until no more tears have come out. I’m hoping this community can help me. Love you all.

Mingyur Rinpoche, its been a long time I’ve been on the eight-fold noble path following the Dharma. It has also like many others in here watching, changed my life too, entirely. I’m so thankful for this path that now, after 10 years of practising, consider myself a young, baby Buddha. 😊 This video is really important because living in North American cities can be very challenging. Society here is suffering from A LOT of illusion, delusion, clinging, attachment, anger. Speaking about innate qualities is so beautiful, because we really are whole just in our own existence, especially to the world and nature. I really struggle at work sometimes. I’m a transit driver helping people get to where they are going everyday. However, people on the road, in traffic, in there cars, and the different people who ride the transit service often project so much of there suffering onto me and others. It’s painful and very difficult. There are so many people doing this its impossible to escape. It has become a plague in North American Societies. People have become so incredibly selfish. I do find practising awareness in my drivers seat can be very very helpful as I stay with breathe and let everything else ‘just be’. The part of this video talking about how suffering can become really strong when we try and win win all the time is so incredibly true. This is how society in the city I live operates. They constantly try to lead me down paths of losing, or falling into emotional abuse. Many people play games, want to demonstrate there ego, that they are better. With zero care of what damage they cause along the way. I remember my older teaching: If it looks like wisdom, but it is unkind rather than loving, it’s not wisdom, if it feels like love, but it’s not wise, it’s not love. This is constant here. People are living in the stories they tell themselves in there heads and try to make everyone else suffer. Meditation recently, and meditating on these issues has really helped lately. I have a very toxic work environment, but I’m just tying to not hurt so much and feel so much pain from emotional abuse as I do. I think more meditation practise would be great. Meditation is showing me I’m so much more than these behaviours. To see the innate good qualities I have and use those. We are all beautiful 😊 Mostly though, thank you for this Blessed video. You mean so much. It’s profound❤ Wouldn’t change being a Buddha for anything in the world. Peace and love dear friend!

I started to collect some donation for the repairing and renewing work of retreat center. Hope everyone can benefit from it both in life and in dharma practice🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you Rinpoche, your videos always revive my humanity and gratitude. I will do my homework!

Homework at this moment. 1. Meditation focuses on specific levels of my physical body, being aware of feeling sensations and audible sounds at the present moment. 2. Help my friends, work associates, and family within my own capacity to assist them with what I can give without receiving. 3. Completed diploma in marine science and am now pursuing a bachelor's of environmental planning and masters degree. My goal is to achieve a Ph.D. in recycled waste and waste water recovery management systems. Number 3 is the most challenging venture I have ever faced, along many life obstacles. The vessel of spirit that is beyond my understanding is for me to surrender to what is and let the universal law... surprise me. That's even more uncomfortable, not knowing what's arriving. But when it does, everything seems to work out like a perfect clock designed for me? This is so mysterious that it makes you cry with happiness and gratitude 🥲 May the great spirit be with you all 🙏

I use breath work often to center, I learned nearly a decade ago to body scan and 'raise' heat. [ so powerful ] Today I go help my aged parents, even with it raining. The something different is I will collect wild greens as I used to before covid. The rains will make them very fresh. [ tropical rains in England ]

I'll keep it simple tonight and cut some vegetables for my mom so she doesn't have to tomorrow. All great reminders, thank you

Its wonderful how you share your common sense spirituality with the world Rinpoche. Thank you.

Thank you Rinpoche. We are so lucky to receive whatever teachings we are able from you. ❤

1. i did a do with the attentiveness, very calming 2. I chilled with a spooder who lives in my bathroom window and assisted an earwig not die as well as watered some plants. 3. I tried to do a pull up and tried not quiting on something Such awareness, much wow, very om

I started meditating, trying different ways, it helped me a lot but it's still not that easy, I started walking the dogs and watering the plants, especially the plants I liked 😄

Merci à vous ! Très clair , profond et concret... Merci Mingyour Rinpotché !

Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu Namo Buddhaya.

Thank you for being a loght in the world. ♡☆ ❤

Thank you for your teachings and kindness 💚🙏🏼

And kindness to others doesn't cost anything, and you get so much in return.❤Win-win!😊

Saw this video this morning, and tried thinking of ways to do the homework. I set the intention to recognize awareness of the sensations of wind against my body while riding my bike to/from work. I made time to have conversations with co-workers and my housemate after work. I left for work a little early, so I could try a different bike route.

wonderful simple instruction. thank you. it is wonderful to hear these messages spelt out in this way. I hope to be less of a burden upon the spiritual growth of others in this life. these lessons most certainly help us achieve this.

thank u Rinpoche! you know you have done great work helping us here

Exactly, I am being selfish like that. Others must loose, I must win. Thank you my teacher for teaching me valuable lesson.

So for homework, 1. I did a little sound meditation with the constant AC noise in my room since it's over 110 degrees here in summer! 2. For social work, I just signed up to a group of volunteers at "Feed My Starving Children" network with my kid. Kids love the move and interaction while packing up dry food. For trying something different, I have no good idea. waiting for some good suggestions..

Thanks so much! All of them, connect deeply with awareness, share with my community and change something routine 😊🙏

Am trying to teach my mom also a bit of meditation and by homework I have plan first 15 mins to dedicate towards breathing and later 15 mins to wards compasion

🙏🙏🙏❤ Thank you

Gracias maestro...🙏

Thank you 🙏🏻

Thank you 🙏. Your second suggestion of social work is something I do as a job and it is creating an imbalance in my life as my natural caring and helpful part of me is always working, and I don't always do the same for me. By practicing and focussing on meditative awareness, and by doing a huge something new (this is what is going to be a massive thing in this moment, and is something that has been put off for too long) it will bring me home.

Thank tou rinpoche

Thank you

I've just help my mother going to the supermaket while she was cooking. I love helping others but at the same time I was late because of the supermarket queue and so my mother got angry for this reason. Now I feel good but at the same time I feel shame and disappointed. What can I do? Earlier I've meditated on my breath as I do daily and I felt good, somewhat hopeful about my future, stronger in my self-esteem. Some days ago I've gone biking in the forrest near our mountain vacation home and there I stopped near a river and meditated on the sound of water flowing down. I loved it and that evening I felt excited, hopeful and just good inside myself with my life.

Dankjewel 🙏

Thank you so much 🙏 Rinpoche

this video is timed right when I needed it

Thank you...🌱🙏

This is wisdom at its finest. And I agree with the others, the kindness and compassion and care that the message is delivered with is very powerful and freeing. Thank you!

I hear you and all other teachers alike.

Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche is the ultimate role model. Thank you for sharing your teachings with us.

I connect awareness with the gratitude, I am vigilant to help for something, different thing is to learn the 7 points position of Vairocana. Thank you for the explanation !

南无阿弥陀佛🙏Namo Amitabha Sadhu🙏🙏🙏

I will do the homework and come back to give feedback!

Yongey is a great Buddhist Master. 🔥🙏🏽🔥

Muchas gratias

Thank you! I'll comment on only one of the "homework" tasks, regarding helping others. I completely agree and feel that it's so beneficial to help others without expecting something in return. It seems to me that it breaks certain habits of our ego, and also connects us more with the person whom we are helping. To me it seems as it brings back some of that feeling I had when I was child, and when it was natural to connect this way with others. I would recommend this to everybody, and also one important thing, don't fall into trap of thinking "how can I help others, I can't even help myself". It can be something as simple as taking out the trash for elderly person. It really doesn't have to be anything "big" because that's again ego's wish to accomplish something. Even small thing is more than good enough. Thank you and I wish you all the best!

🙏❤️

🙏❤

I will be your teacher and I will be your student. as much as it need and even more! 🙏

That unhealthy singular self takes more control and space in the mind when we don't have supportive structures in life (at home with family, at work, and in our communities). While we have to make changes within ourselves first, social structure could be supportive or unsupportive.

🙏

❤

Kyapsucheo. Lama Khenno! May I attain peace and happiness to help others. I am a day dreamer and do not like to follow schedule. Thus I cannot practice meditation. I want to be free all the time.

Rinpoche san, I started with Vipassana meditation last year and my 3rd 10 day course is coming up. Throughout my practice, I've experienced many things but one thing that concerns me is the lack of empathy. I used to be a people pleaser and it seems that's where my empathy and kindness stemmed from. Now that I'm over that, I feel it difficult to help others instantly or feel for others, I feel very detached. I'm not sure if it's a good or a bad thing. Would like your outlook on this. Saadhu.

This pure and complete true nature is _none other_ than what Advaitins call the Atman. Even in the Ratnagotravibhāga, there is an _exact quotation_ from the Bhagavad Gita from which it was likely lifted, _except_ that the word Atman is substituted with Tathāgatagarbha.

“Consider thus your teacher as a doctor and his teaching as a medicine. Regard yourself as sick and take your practice as your therapy, The gaining of both happiness and peace As cure from your disease. Likewise, in ways similar to these, Attend upon your teacher With the four pure attitudes.” - Finding Rest in the Nature of the Mind (Trilogy of Rest Book 1) - Longchenpa

From long ago.

Hi something exciting happened this morning. I sat for meditation. Went to outter space. Started breathing. Said Quan Yen I m here. I was dissolving into space and a statue of a pre Columbian man sitting up right in a chair with his hands on his knees wearing a hat that looked like a funnel without the drain. Across the bottom it had 3little balls. I said what does this mean .a one word answer HEADSET. Asked about time to get up. 5 am. 1/2 hr chanting. 1/2 hr meditation. 1/2 hr Tai chi 1/2 hr ba duan Jing. Plan 2 meditation s today up at 5 in the morning.

my problem is when I do breathing mediation, awareness or focus on whatever I don't feel happy. I don't really feel anything at all.

THE LESSON Unhealthy sense of self is at the surface level : - we behave as there is the ME and the rest of them; - we feel the need to control others to serve the ME; - we set expectations of the our actions and we fear the change of coming results or suffer if they do not end up as we expected. This doesn't bring content as we concluded by experience. What we can do? - bring attention to the solid ME whenever we can and this can increase the chance to see we are THAT which has multiple qualities, skills, potentials, knowledge, wisdom, capacity, etc. - to be served by the others it's not totally in our control but to serve others it is and luckily it brings the same joy. - accept the change and the unexpected. Why? Fighting against change in general is nothing but a lifelong battle, we'll never win. Then how to accept change? See yourself when you disagree the change and remember every time that we love the change deep inside us: new tastes, new trips, new hobbies, new entertainment, new technology, the newness in our experiences. Everything changes regardless of our desire: the body, the thoughts, the feelings, the perceptions, the weather, the news, the people, the quality of our belongings, the opinions, the wishes, etc.

Atenção Plena, Trabalho Social e Algo Novo.

Rinpoche la

Hello rinpoche, I would like to ask a question. In the Tibetan Bodhisattva 37 practice, it is written to return all the merits of the past, present and future three generations to the thief. Can I return the future merits that have not yet been accumulated?

Killing a mosquito for the love of self- would that count as an act of helping others too and accepting change (mosquito living to mosquito dead- hence impermanence and also, me not having guilt about killing that mosquito- another impermanence).. I want to ask Buddha this question.

I am ready to accept that maybe whole my serious life is just a perfect material for a great joke and... yep, that is it

Hello I have a question. I have a Tibetan Buddha painting. It was covered by glass. My mother broke the glass because she was angry. The Buddha painting is ok, but a very little side of it was ripped off. The part that was ripped off is invisible, because it is still attached and you cannot notice. Should I fix it somehow, should I leave this way or should I throw away the painting? What is the correct thing to do? Thanks 🙏🏻

They're holding old residue still.

You are a Buddha but you got distracted and you forgot.

Ты ещё жив? Что спасёт тебя после смерти если из тела ты не выйдешь-из за болезни? 1 технологии ДНК? 2молитва? 3 старые гниющие нейро нити судьбы? 4- осознанность которой у тебя никогда небыло? (ясно осознанная сознательность и собранность и есть - свобода над бытием(только кто ты в нем?))
