I listened to half way. I cannot agree with the basic premise. There are those I know and who I love. There are those I know with whom I have not always had the best relationship. So far I agree, then there are the innumerable strangers who I meet every day and whose kindness humbles me. I look around and I see love everywhere.

This talk demonstrates quite directly and simply an aspect of our own "ignorance" and how that affects our relationship with everything and everyone in the relative sense when we are still dwelling in our notions of self and other, subject and objet. It is our ignorance, not so much as in the sense of stupidity, but in regards to ignoring. In that sense, there is great insight even within our ignorance. This is not really a "religious" talk in the Western sense. The functioning of the mind itself can be the essential matter and suffering is the overall issue. From a purely pragmatic viewpoint, concerning all of our relations, the talk delivers valuable reflections in the form of sound advice that one can easily test by way of practice.

I have been listening to ven Chodron's teachings and Breakfast corner for some years now and am so grateful that You Tube has enabled this across the ocean that divides. I just watched the slide show diary and loved how it showed the dedication and love and especially the mantra track that accompanied it. Thank you for continually sharing. I hear that this 2023 winter has been extreme so I am sending prayers of comfort. 🙏

The very first video of Ven Thubten Chodron that I saw back in 2015. She's an incredible woman, who has advanced gender equality and equanimity within Buddhism and beyond. She takes ancient eastern philosophies and relates them to our western way of life using laughter, warmth and kindness. This video is from 2004, she's grown in wisdom and kindness. sabbe satta sukhi hontu!!!

Thank you, peaceful1987, for posting this. I happen to like Thubten Chodron's talks quite a bit and was quite taken with her talk on Transforming problems (the first of her videos I've seen, also on youtube) and had had her recommended to me by a kind Tibetan-American Buddhist. While her speaking style (or for that matter the topics discussed) won't appeal to everyone, I think she communicates very clearly from a place of great personal authenticity.

This talk is wonderful. I find it hard to self exchange when others are abusive no matter what you do. . .
@ernestweber52079 жыл бұрын
+Jenayalynn Riojas It may be alright to find it hard. In other words, you may be discovering the place where that occurs and obtain insight into the process and outcomes of it, first. It being hard to do may be secondary to the valuable insights you obtain from attending to the idea of it and noticing the difficulty. Maybe you can keep in mind that to do the exchange in no way requires you to condone the behavior or enable it. It might be easier to consider the person and their core and needs and even motivations as the place of exchange and the behaviors as a way to see the impact and effects that they have. What suffering might result for that person due to that? Do you need to judge it, in that sense, or just recognize it for what it is? That is a place for compassion to arise, actually. There can and will be ethical problems in different situations in relation to your practice, you know. So, if you continue to practice, you make it simpler and easier for yourself to resolve them with your own, appropriate behavior and response, rather than an impulsive reaction--insights do arise naturally when unimpeded. Go easy and continue. Ask lots of questions. Tashi Delel

Hello Thubten Chodron. You made a great impact on me after I picked up your little book "I wonder why" from a temple in Singapore. Your clear explanation & even tone (in the book) was extremely comforting to me in difficult times, & I carried the book around like an amulet in my bag & read it over & over.. Definitely I have progressed in my practice so now I am learning Dharma exponentially on the web. Your kindness & radiant smile illuminated my life, for which I'm deeply grateful..

Quq Balam Lol, "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said, not even if i have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense." Buddha. Does that sound like a religion that 'worships nonsense'. Buddhists don't worship anything and buddhism is a living tradition with ongoing debate, which includes scientific alterations. Do your research before you make yourself look like an idiot.

I also feel a little strange with her style. But she is only human. We all have faults and some like us more than others. (I probably ave many more than her) I do not believe or enjoy everything I hear. I take a bit here and a bit there. For me, it is much more balanced way to learn my own path with this. My lesson: learn to care. Good luck.

Happy people have the potential to uplift other people and make them happy too. Happiness is contagious and, unfortunately, misery is also contagious. Fortunately, happiness is more contagious because it tends to attract "normal people" (i.e. neither particularly happy nor unhappy people) whereas misery tends to repel "normal people". Everyone can experience temporary mood-elevation, but it takes skill to be truly happy. It's both wise and compassionate to develop this skill. May you be happy.

The Buddha teaching is the deepest science and very profound. It's a vision not a belief. The vision arise to you when one is completely free from words. If you r free from the words you r free and you become the universe. You become the nature. You set free from time and distance the duality. You become eternal: how? The person we believe in us would be a fake belief and then you see there is no one in or out. You become eternal. Just like the experience you have in deep sleep. There is no I in deep sleep. The I only exist on awake state, with words.

(part 1) It's not simply a matter of projection to see the good qualities in others. I can see (what I would deem to be) good qualities in the vast majority of people, in spite of also being able to see certain qualities that I might not like in the very same people. It is a matter of goals. If your goal is to be happy, then it is wise and skillful to focus primarily on the positive qualities in yourself and others...
@GuyC711 жыл бұрын
(part 2) It seems to be easier for many of us to instinctively focus on the negatives in ourselves and others. It takes a bit of effort to go against that habit and to form a new, more skillful, habit. It is worth it though, if we want to be happy. This is not living in denial of the negative; it is acknowledging cause and effect, and being pragmatic. Focusing (too much) on negativity leads to depression. Focusing (about 90%) on positive aspects of ourselves and others leads to happiness.

she suggests to "train our minds to see the good qualities in others", means, her reference point is not the world, but what she wants to see in the world, which is projection. Prejudices aren't of any use, because they're self-made, but seeing only good qualities is the same self-made mechanism. also, the world isn't good, so why being happy all the time? plus, the world isn't bad, so why being un-happy?

I want to be happy and so does everyone else if they are honest with themselves. The only place this is found or generated is in my own mind. Irregardless of everything else it is the mind that generates true happiness. External factors will not produce happiness for you. Of course Pema Chodron is talking about a different topic. She is talking about the practice of Boddhichitta which is the path to our happiness. We should listen and ask questions or comment later.
