But what about craving Bacon? Buddha has nothing to say about Bacon. Resisting the BK Baconator isn't worth the suffering it entails.

Im dipping at 20 mins. This turned into a bunch of Mara.

Lithium is a multivitamin for your neural pathways and its completely natural. Truly a miracle drug.

For someone that has a background in psychology, you sound way off base. Bipolar and schizophrenia have existed forever, they were just called different things.

Ive gotten a lot of help from mental health treatments both psychology and psychiatry

Yo! Dhammarato being extra spicy!

Yes! Ive always said, What do you mean who are you? A person! A bunch of cells and particles!

Daaammmmnnnnn that was cold 😬

Theres a ludo song with the lyric "every saint has a past every sinner has a future"

Great talk , santiago please call more often

14:30 you don't need craving, craving needs you

12:30 dissatisfaction has no purpose

11:00 Buddha say dissatisfaction is nature of human being

Someone put a sign on a tree on my property a few weeks ago that said "Who doesn't need the savior?" So I taped a sign beneath it that said: "Hebrews, Muslims, Buddhists, pagans, atheists, you! The "holy spirit" is "in" you!" The first sign was torn down 2 days later but they left my sign where it was so I got to keep it 😂😅

Great vid!

Where does "the truth is stranger than fiction" fall against "incredible/mind blowing"?

Wish you well ❤️‍🩹🙏🏿

Donnie darko says fear and love are the two ends of the spectrum. I'm guessing that's too sensual for buddhism.

My ex last night, "gravity isn’t a theory" 🫠

Keep up the good work.Iam from Kerala India

Robert Frosts poem is about how the path he chose makes no difference because everyone ends up dead. Its a contemplation about how taking the road not traveled causes unnecessary suffering. Taking the path already made instead of trailblazing is easier for lots of reasons.

Loved everything about this all over. That thing about the retired race car drivers was super interesting!

Great talk ❤ I give it 5 out of 5 hot dogs! 🌭 🌭 🌭 🌭 🌭

“"It would be better for the uninstructed run-of-the-mill person to hold to the body composed of the four great elements, rather than the mind, as the self. Why is that? Because this body composed of the four great elements is seen standing for a year, two years, three, four, five, ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, a hundred years or more. But what's called 'mind,' 'intellect,' or 'consciousness' by day and by night arises as one thing and ceases as another. Just as a monkey, swinging through a forest wilderness, grabs a branch. Letting go of it, it grabs another branch. Letting go of that, it grabs another one. Letting go of that, it grabs another one. In the same way, what's called 'mind,' 'intellect,' or 'consciousness' by day and by night arises as one thing and ceases as another.” (SN 12)

what a fantastic call this was!! ❤❤

my favourite Teacher is back...nice to see you Dhammarato. Hope you're recovering well.

So happy to see Dhammarato again! ❤

🤯🤯🤯 why was i in the psych ward for this 😭😂

The most interesting part of this talk has been the rising of bad thoughts and whether one can spot them within the second that they arise instead of getting caught up with it for 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and the whole day... etc. The fact that one can recognize the bad though as it surges allows us to bin it immediately instead of prolonging our suffering.

Some very interesting questions by the gentlemen and some great answers from Dhammarato.

Thank you!

Thank you so much for another beautiful Dhamma talk and I am so happy to see Dhammarato recovering. All the best to you dear Dhammarato (cannot be otherwise ;))😀

11:40 Breath is the reality of the moment

Thanks for asking those questions jonas. And thanks for your answers dhammarato

Iam following TWIM meditation since last 4 years and Iam also regularly watch ur vedeo.Its interesting

Dhammarato is doing much better now! He is even hosting Sangha Dhamma Talks and doing 1-on-1 Calls again. Come join us and delight in the Dhamma.

This sounds more like CBT than DBT and theres a lot to think about because I never dealt as much in CBT.

Thank you for an excellent dharma conversation. 🙏

As soon as i actually read Winnie the Pooh in high school, i hecking loved it. And Eeyore is so funny, if you read, all his friends build him a house and he goes, you all actually hate me and didnt want me staying with you and thats the only reason yall re-built my house. Like 🙄 😅 sure Eeyore, wevr you say, we're just glad you have a house

Wow this video really changed my prospective on so many things. Thank you so much.

Great video guys🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🌄☯️🌸

Yes this was a pleasant deviation from the advice of don't take medicine. Better to take it skillfully or not take it skillfully. Cultivating an attitude of you're okay either way... Is what I heard dhammarato recommend once

Love hearing yall tell people to take meds 🎉

I remember Ajahn Dhammavidu referred to that concrete bed and wooden pillow at Suan Mokkh as our coffins, and he called the room our cells. After each talk he’d say “I hope you are getting along well in your cells” or “did everyone rest well in their coffins?” 😂 I actually loved the wooden pillow

Lol the thumbnail 😂 (if you know you know)

Somewhere along the way we learned that we need to be filled with guilt when we make a mistake for whatever reason. But this guilt will not satisfy us or the situation. Replace it with a wholesome thoughts and right actions.

Well mama, she done told me Papa done told me too Son, that girl you're fooling with She ain't no good for you

Damn Eddie! That's amazing explanation of the phenomena when you can feel that kind of thing! Just so you know Ivan, there's a theory of autism that says the ego can't exist in autism, but ego is probably a thing that came from the pride of the psychologists more than a real thing.

Ivan ur laugh! It's infectious! 😂🎉🩷🪷✨️

We ❤ u Ajahn Dhammarato & Ivan!☯️
