He is a jolly monk. He teaches like no other and his funny stories carry deep deep meaning. I am blessed.

Never do today what you can put off til tomorrow.....BRILLIANT!!!!!

I just love to listen and learn from Ajahn Brahm, my modern Father of Buddhism!

As a healthcare worker I needed to hear this…especially now. We are in a crucible. These are hard days for most of us.

Since i discovered coincidently Ajahn Brahm, my life changed crucially. i used to try for it with philosophy and psychoanalysis... but there was always something missing. i felt like i found that in buddhism. Ajahn Brahm's dharma talk came with me in this journey. how much i am grateful for it beyond all words i could describe.

"Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow" And then i hit pause, added to watch later, and decided to go to bed early ^^

Be mindful; not as easy as it looks. A life's goal for me, respecting myself and what I am going through with peace. Thank you.

All that stillness and meditation gives them mental clarity, insight and wisdom. That’s why we go to these spiritually elevated people for answers.

after having a tough week I decided to look for relaxing talks on KZfaq and found this one. I enjoyed this very much & will watch the others as well. thank you

Ajahn Brahm has completely changed my perspective of the world for the better. Thank you so much.

Simply wonderful talk. " care" for the moment- not " cure" . Even the negativities. it will melt away. And you will have peace. Thank you Ajhan for this wonderful wisdom.

Absolutely love Ajahn ❤️ I listen every day few hours his talks and they have helped me so much

I am so stressed and depressed with covid situation with people dying.. being a doctor its so hard.. Thank you Ven Ajahn Brahm so much.. i cant cure.. i will try to care from now on..

I am finally recovering from my eating disorder after 18 years. Ajahn reminds me that i am not my body, I am not my thoughts... I am deeper than that and my pain is the earths pain. Sadhu sadhu sadhu ❤️

My stress just flew away with this talk. Thank you Venerable Ajahn Brahm. I am ever grateful to you.

I was confused in my life, couldn't get what I was looking for in all religions, I now have found what really the meaning of life is, I don't get bored about life anymore, it's real life what he talks about, love life now! it's amazing

As a Christian, I concur with with Mr Monk. Stillness is rare in our world, yes human doings and not being. There are commonalities in all faiths of stillness and looking after oneself and being in the moment.

Amazing talk! Thank you Ajahn Brahm. You are a true blessing to mankind...

I really enjoy talks by Acharn Brahm and this one is worth sharing, especially with non buddhists or people who don't normally listen to Dhamma talks.

Very inspirational! Thank you for sharing :)

I’d love to sit next to Ajahn Brahm on one of these 7+ hour long flights.

One of the best talk I have listened to, so far. Thank you!!!

Care instead of cure, love it😊

Ajahm Brahm is absolutely marvelous.

Ajahn Brahm 👍👍🙏🙏🙏❤️ Alive, relevant, wise and compassionate Dharma

I planned to find my cure my mental breakdown before I came, now it has been taken care of. Thank you Ajahn Brahm. I will treat people in front of me with care no matter what they have done to me...

At last we have a positive way of looking at life in the modern western world. I still predict loads of depression for the west as old age approaches. While on Asia and Africa age is admired with respect, in the west it is a bad thing to be called old. While the thought never arose in my mind that I was young when I was young, nowadays young people are aware that they are young and carry it in their minds. God alone knows how they will hate themselves at old age. Letting go now is the key.

the mind is like a gyroscope; it never goes in the direction you push it

absolutely gorgeous talk, thank you!

May all beings be happy, may the Buddhist rule prevail.

I love care instead cure, great mind blowing idea

I

love you ajahn brahm!

Thank you "Mr. Monk" : )

This is one of the best videos from Ajahn Brahm thank you soo much.

so enlightening!

One of your best Ajahn!

Thank you!

Thank you Ajahn

Thank you so much

Great work supporting female monastics 🙏🙏🙏

I've got the message Cure vs.Care, it's fascinating!

Wonderful talk! Thank you:)

Beautifully simple.

Great Talk.

Your name is very interesting... In Cambodia, Ajahn Brahm (អាចារ្យ ប្រាំ) mean five spiritual teachers ... Finding the calm in the storm is only just the beginning, the most important is discernment of cause of storm creation and of extinction cause of existing storms via insight.. The ultimately is knowing the law of "cause of mind creation and the extinction of existing mind" without belief, but through clear insight in which the door of Nirvana is opened for us, freedom and joyful. Note: mind is composed of feeling, perception, mental formation and consciousness..

🙏🙏🙏sadhu sadhu sadhu

sadhu. Sadhu.Sadhu. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing. Out of curiosity, what happened to the Q & A of the talk. Would love to see it if you can upload. With metta

work work work work.. didnt know that ajahn bram is Rihannas main inspiration!!! work work work ...

" stillness is my friend".......

Relax light...simply awesome!!

👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

🙏🙏🙏

Care not cure 🙏🏼 that is the medicine for curing 😊 not to rush , flow with your mind and all that is going on in your life right now , care for yourself 🙏🏼👌🏽

Wow :)

gem in last minute: "care for this moment. not trying to get rid of things. sit still while the world is changing around you. why? because you dont fight. you care. and then the world changes. thats the way you find peace even in the turmoil of life. the world around you is turmoil but you are in the center of stillness." to clarify: when he said the world is changing around you and then said with your stillness the world changes i think he meant it changes to more stillness with you.

He says he can "let go very quickly" when he is stressed. How do you do that in the moment besides meditating?

Great talk as always .Thank you .Now ,I have a question that I can't find he answer myself.He says not to fight and not to get rid of the state of the mind we are in right now.How to make peace with my insecurity when it's ruining my life?What does that mean?

0:38:18 “Instead of [thinking] ‘when is Ajahn Chah going to stop,’ this little novice thought, ‘when am I going to stop?’ And the little novice stopped.” Wonderful.

I want to meet ajha bram bhante

be a visitor of your mind, not owner, then youre free, no responsibilities. then its fun. stop trying to change your mind, fix it up.

Pardon me, but what is a berkuni, that Ajahn Brahn has referred to on a number of occasions?

việt nam mô phật

wholesome speeches no doubt. ! only one minus thing ajahn brahm speaks too fast .

as usual...excellent: face things. care for things. ok to be grumpy. too bad so many buddhists are too serious and dont get what brahm teaches

ajahn brahm, how much money is importent in life?

Strange, l don't think Jon Kabat Zin identifies as Buddhist does he? Also I don't think Alan Wallace is an icon of the mindfulness movement. He seems to agree with the idea that the mindfulness movement is inadequate but I don't think he feels guilt about it since he teaches shamatha strongly linked to ethics and wisdom.

Care for the illness instead of cure

Bigotry is still at play in Buddhist ordination, especially as led by the Western monks, bhikkuni ordination or no.

purpose of life: having a peaceful mind and learning how to relax! if there's more clean dishes than dirty, quit while youre ahead!

according to cutting age science mind is what the brain does........

@re98wlk are you hearing yourself before you post what you are writing? Seriously

oh god the opening of this video is horrendous! so loud and commercialized, makes you jump. who the heck thought this was a good idea? obviously not an ajahn brahm fan

put off til tomorrow, might die tonight. be rather than go. you create most of the turmoil. red lights and traffic are buddha - stop - enjoy the moment divorce is recycling: someone gets your husband yoiu get another. wheres bangalor? their red lights say "relax". life is only stressful when youre busy trying to get somewhere else.

Please dont get the following wrong ..I kinda do enjoy Ajahn Brahm, but as I listen I a keep thinking what makes him so special amongs the many many Monks. Is it his evident willingness to sit infront of a camera or jet set around the world ability to talk and talk and talk and use storytelling in a way a teacher engages children in a kindergarten? Ajahn Brahm: .." I fly here I fly there, I have to give a talk here, I have to give a talk there ..I lead a very busy life ...people always taking photos of me ...please use me as a doormat". Is that the ego or sense of self importance speaking or a humble monk? PLEASE just think about that for a moment ...compare and listen to other respected (not as well known maybe) Monks ...search within through your own meditation ... Life of SOME monks seems quite pleasurable and akin to a popstars fame. Welcomed by worshipping followers who question nothing. How is the money generated to fund a poor moneyless monks worldwide travel? There's many many many Monks around the world ...who decides which amongst them should travel so extensively and whose words are to be taken as gospel. Buddhism may well be a lovely and worthwhile path ..but come on people question things ...Ajahn Brahm as lovely and as funny and as charing and knowleageable as he is ...he is just a man. And I doubt he has all the right answers.

May be you should goto sri Lanka and preach the Buddhists be real practicing Buddhists. Its a helll hole over there. In the process you might learn how insane this religious nonsense is.

Meditation is not a Buddhist thing but a Hindu tradition 1000 of years before Buddhism

You took a long time to talk about yourself. Just saying it!

at 50:39 he exposed his bare fat belly! hahaha! i dont hink hes allowed to do that! hes always fussing with his robe. isnt he used to it by now? why dont they sew it up for him? i could. im a seamstress.

Bit of ego here???

he said "when everyone thinks the same no one thinks at all" but monks have to follow all these rules and do the same thing over and over and over. also how is brahm so fat on only one meal a day? eaten only between 11-12? and why permit snack on cheese and chocolate? seems solid and also unhealthy. why not an apple?
