The best thing is it gives you more time to study, contemplate, and meditate.

I love your videos. Hello sir, I am a researcher on Buddhism in Bihar. Don't you want to know and see where the first Tibetan Sangaram was opened solely for foreigners. This is north of Patna on the northern banks of the Ganges. Xuan Zangs lovely book led me to the Sangaram. According to him three Sramanas from across the SNOWY MOUNTAINS (From the area around 'Taro Co' lake in northern Tibet) crossed over to India on a pilgrimage to holy Buddhist sites. Indians fail to understand who they are and no one gives them food and shelter and sometimes beat them up. They were lying by the side of the road dying when the King rode up. He inquired about them and when they told him their story, the King realised a Sangaram was needed for foreigners only where Indians won't be allowed. So this can be regarded as the first Tibetan Sangaram in India. Those days Indians had pierced ears because they wore ear rings. Foreigners had unpierced ears so this Sangaram was for unpierced ears. Those days Indians didn't know about Tibet so this Sangaram was for unpierced years, meaning foreigners. Today that Sangaram is a village and that King is the local village deity. This story proves that Buddhism went to Tibet prior to Xuan Zangs epic journey to India. So Tibetans will have to study how and when Buddhism went to Tibet. Because Xuan Zang seems to infer that Buddhism went to Tibet much earlier than what the great masters claim today.

So well said respected Sir. Have seen your speech in the BBC Budhha documentary too. You are a profound Budhist practitioner and definitely a Bodhisattva in the making. I embraced Budhism and you are one of my inspiration. Am on my way to becoming a nun in few years from now. But the penance has already begun. Nammo Budhaya. Sadhu Sadhu sadhu

Lots of words.❤️

Thank You very much!

Thank you Grandpa ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

For me here in Japan priets are teaching us the teachings from history from the Buddishm. So without them today not Buddishm exist.Japan.

I am looking into it .

You can stay at monasteries quite easily these days so just go and stay as a layperson and see how it is for you.

Could you turn on the auto captions for this video please.

organized or institutional buddhism could be very misleading for some; that's why to each their own; Aum Mani Padma Hum ✨✨✨

Basis of Budhism is reincarnation and law of karma . The necessity of Budhism is impermanence sufferings and concept of no soul . Budhism guides us to stay in human world and heavens until final stage is attained

Rururu.

Buddhism and meditation aren't the same thing.
