The biggest problem in the understanding that people have about mindfulness/meditation is that most non meditators think that its simply a relaxation tool....but true meditators know the great impact that meditation can have for one's life, in every area....imagine if we taught contemplative practices to kids in the education system....imagine our politicians were impacted by practicing mindfulness and mediation, it would change the world

[rodrigojoseunb]

This was the most fulfilling thumbs up i've ever gave.

[phoggee]

omg this guy is fantasic, meditation never made so much sense

[knochenwerferin]

A great help, thank you!

[ccahua]

Excellent.

From all the stuff I read and know on Buddhism (2 books, loads of websites, some mindfulness experiences), this video contains 75%+ of my knowledge about the philosophy.

It's like he explained all of it in a short and concise manner.

[cliffcox66]

Thank you, I've bought many CD's and find you very lucid and clear.

[bamboosa]

ok, this officially makes Google cool.

[ninjasdoitbetter]

ERROR: The interactive transcript is really cool, I think theres an error though,24:49 "we`ve dreamed sleep" I think he says, "we have dreamless sleep" Meaning, sometimes we have sleep thats dreamless, and then we arent conscious. Not sure of course, but, thats what I think. could ask him.

[docbarham]

Shinzen Young is a fantastic teacher. He makes what was previously difficult and complex simple and easy to understand. His one hour in depth free interview at Ask Integral Experts is an amazing and fun journey filled with insight and practical applications of the Science Of Enlightenement. Awesome!

good stuff son....one of the best  talks i've heard...i was a zen monk (since '65) of the "idiot" school....but it still worked.-----my 1st distraction was; "where the breath intake goes as it gets absorbed into the lungs and what it looks like if the breath could see""

This is so radical. It is an incredible idea. It would be the greatest event in human history - no question. Shinzen is a great master and I think his message is going to get through. I am certainly going to spread this idea. Awesome and inspiring.

[bohmana]

I loved this lecture. A great man, mr Young.

[pointatthemoon]

I love this, and I hope he can get the funding. Who will research a method for reaching a mental state that is fundamentally opposed to our consumerism?

[dg8162]

I am curious to know why there were so few people in the audience. Was this due to a lack of interest, or perhaps some other reason?

I would have hoped that more Googlers would be interested in hacking their wet-ware.

[sacreebluee]

base sound is too low on this video.

[batlin]

That was a very exciting and interesting talk. I enjoyed his choice of analogies, quite appropriate. Gotta check out this Mindfulness...

[LookAndRest]

an excellentm, clear and vivid talk about mindfulness practice. Thanks very much to Shinzen and GoogleTechTalks.

[dhamma58]

my original teacher--great to see the dharma as taught then and now by one of our great western teachers.....

[irishfergal]

Shinzen makes mindfulness meditation accessible to the most skeptical agnostic who might eschew all organized religions. Shinzen's methodology is so precise and scientific in the truest sense, that anyone can practice and enjoy the benefits of mindfulness meditation.

[fred25o]

"A ha! experiences", that's really interesting. I get those in my dreams. I feel Shinzen understands me, he's very good.

[unruheGER]

I'm a techtalk-subscriber because I'm a IT-Student and a Tech-Geek. This Video has been the most inspiring one I've seen on the channel. When a Meditation Teacher talks about functions of time and vectors it really wipes away scepticism. I wish his books and audio-books were translated to more languages.

[floordipper]

Indeed...huge thanks to Google for these videos. Some very intelligent people sharing knowledge accumulated over a life time....what more can a seeker ask?

[c4chaos]

awesome! Shinzen is the best meditation teacher i've encountered so far. his very lucid and scientific approach to meditation really takes the mist out of mysticism

[deimossonofares]

Thank you Google for providing this high qualitiy knowledge for free. Keep up the good work !!
