I have recently just become interested in Buddhism, and really want to get more into meditating.

Jesus is alive. He divided divided our time with a new era. Now we have real hope. He can divide your history too. After Jesus you will have eternal life and love. The grave is empty. John 3:16 says: "for God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him,shall not perish, but have eternal life."
Jesus is the path. People who "follow science" or other paths, refusing the knowledge of God, who sent his only son to save us from eternal condemnation, refusing the knowledge about his son, and all the historical events that occurred to proof who he is, are giving their back to the real knowledge. Jesus complied all the prophecies about him to the smallest detail. These prophecies were given hundred years before he came, and are historical facts that are deliberately ignored.
Buddha is not politics. please don't mix it up with words communism or capitalism. It is a path, direction , method, practice and understanding. if you want to know more go and do your research.
Ive been meditating and tryin to balance my mind for a few months now. I try and do this before i go to bed n in my free time, especially after a stressful day working. It makes me feel happy again, it took me at least 2 months to start understanding whats its all about and im still learning how to focus on clearin my mind but it does take time. Its made me more patient and loving about 'all that is'. Its great being all alone in ur mind away from stress and society..helps u in the real world
@Suwai0303 That's one thing that really stands in my way of riding the ego. I get alot of thoughts about impressing others with my abilities lol I think I've given up though
@jonoce633 Well, I do not feel that it is possible to get rid of ego whether you're the Dalai Lama or a guy that works at Target. It's about being committed to not being egoistic, recognizing when you're being egoistic, and choosing to not be or do or say something egoistic after you caught yourself. This is an every day, life long practice... Trying to impress other is more of a reflection of your insecurities - not ego.
HAHA and America always likes to be bigger and better than everyone els and its killing its own people with food by not teaching them when to say (thats enough).
This was such a fascinating documentary. I had recently began my practice when it aired. Maybe a year prior. This was extremely helpful and answered some questions that I had. Thanks for posting!
Can I, dear monks, put you on my workplace with much stress and conflicts to see how balanced you will be? Tell me if you are enlightened - what is nirvana and how many types of nirvana exist and how do we get there - because nirvana is not what you claim it to be! I am not against your practices - but they will end at the end of your lives and you will NOT get into nirvana - believe me.Happy meditation!!
If majority of people all over the world would do Buddhist meditation, I guarantee that many of the social problems of the world such as violence and conflict would be solved.
Jellywaxfound- Nepal was never a part of India..neither it ever wants to be.. Get the right facts. Nepal is the country that British could not rule.., and you talking about Nepal to be a part of India!!!
@Beenugr8 u dont know anything about indian caste system,nepal never had caste system."shakya" was a tribe not a class.he was the prince of "shakyas".go to school please and study again.
Darkphycic- dat was a never heard story. Birthplace of Buddha is Lumbini which is in modern Nepal. He died in modern India though. And he was not Kshatriya but he was Hindi???? Made me lol.. Did u have conversation with Buddha in Hindi. Don come up with silly jokes... Go to school again..
Buddha requires a strong mind and meditation. Is it exclusive to those strong enough in mind to develop it? If so, that is egoistic, judgmental and selective.
Buddhism is cool, but living like one of those monks seems a lot like being a walking corpse. Like I said, its cool - having their techniques for calming and understanding oneself would be indispensable. But living an entire life like that? Encouraging an entire nation to live like that? No thanks.
Any country whose people sat around and meditated all day would just be invaded and decimated anyway. (read: tibet)
@tehflambo Sad you only see the world as conquer or be counquered.....there is always a middle ground. Does being "busy" (aka not sitting around all day) equate to happiness? Ask your self that.....and then ask yourself again....
@tehflambo The fact that ignorance exists in the world should not disuade us from seeking wisdom. True, a nation must be prepared to defend itself. But a society where the people were mindful, compassionate, disciplined, would be infinitely better than the kind of society we see so often today. And you're right, that the monastic path isn't for everyone, but you don't have to be a monk to follow the Dharma.
Authentic Buddhism is in direct opposition to the capitalist, consumerist, techno-worship lifestyle that has seduced most people. Authentic Buddhists seek to live without harming other beings, without being enslaved by marketing-induced desires, without chasing phantom pleasures. They seek to practice peace, kindness, and virtue. Authentic Buddhism is a cure-all for the death of the earth, for wars, for social injustice. If more people embraced Buddhism, earth would be far happier.
@IbrownrussianbearI Buddhism is an egalitarian faith that de-emphasizes material wealth, so yes, it's not capitalistic at all. But it's not communistic either, as there is no call for an uprising for the workers, no call for a government to regular everything...there is an only an appeal to the individual conscious to find happiness and treat others with compassion. Buddhism defies modern political categories.
@agent0sephiroth I don't think the whole goal of this documentary was to enlighten people, but to introduce them to Buddhism. There are many stages of comprehension. This is just an introduction.
Abrahamic religions for the weak, cowardly & lazy. Don't worry about what u do in life, just make sure u repent, beg & grovel like crazy! The pleased king will put u up in a 5 star hotel for eternity! No wonder christians can't wait to die. NOT!
Moksha is EARNED, never begged for nor given. Heaven & Hell are right here on Earth, we make them happen thru our efforts, not God. Hinduism, Buddhism are religions for the Strong, Brave & active
@ramaraksha01 Which takes more strength? To give up your will and desire and live for someone else or build your mind up to live for yourself, which people already do?
It doesn't affect if you are living in the developed country or any bhudist country, practicing meditation is a skill. Any American surgeon doing research for finding cure for deadly diseases is also a type of meditation.
@sscharania Agreed! There are many ways to do the same thing. I don't understand why some would belittle others just because they think or act differently.
People completely misunderstand renunciation. Living like a monk is just as difficult if not more so then living anywhere else. If there is happiness it is not for living a simpler life. It is commiting to cultivate a simpler mind. you don't need to go to a monastery for that. Plenty of people live very simple lives and are bitter and angry at the world. The mind is the source of all bliss and all pain.
WHAT THE HELL??? Buddha was a prince of Nepal,,, not India!!! while he may have lived his life later and then died in India and this is a true fact, no arguements about that,,, it is also true that he was born in Nepal and to a royal family of Nepal... hence prince of Nepal,,, not India!!! get your facts right!!!
Please take in consideration that prince siddhartha was born in Nepal and he is not from India. It hurt the emotion of all Nepali people and hope the documentary team will timely apologize and correct that version. Thank you.

@jellywaxfound well, jellywax. the india that you know today was only born after tha partition. during the time of the buddha the concept of india or the india that you see today did not exist. Or are you trying to imply that the whole of south asia was and is India? now that's funny. during the Buddha's age, south asia was a cluster of many kingdoms. even the Buddha's kingdom was only a part of the great cluster of kingdoms.
@reality480 Hey! My bad! I wasn't trying to say Buddha spoke hindi. I was just trying to tell MrRajachyut that he shouldn't forget the fact that Nepal was a part of India and he shouldn't be ashamed of it.. But recently I came to know that Indian politicians have been doing hell lot of things against Nepalis (Heard it from one of my closest Nepali friend) and that really made me feel sick! So, I would like to say I have no rights to talk about this and shall keep my mouth shut :) Sorry again!
@jellywaxfound Buddha was indian."ARYAN" ethnic group and thats why he was a "kshtriya"(warrior class sage).His fathers kingdom was in foothold of himalayas.Its where her mother had the dream of an elephant.She went to nepal when he was ready to birth.ANd Budhha speaked sanskrit.HIs mantras are all in sanskrit.
Buddhism was written down in PALI about 500 years after its death,It was passed down by disciplic succession.
DOnt listen to "reality480" that dude has a lot of EGO.
@DarkPhychic: Thanks friend.. I knew Buddha was a Kshtriya and he spoke hindi. Just that I didn't want to get into it at all. Just that I didn't like the other dude saying that Nepalis are ashamed of mentioning that they were a part of india before. Now what counts more is that, Buddha was an Indian :) Thank you :)
@reality480 you are correct in the sense that modern India came to be in 1947. But even in Buddha's time, the concept of India (Bharat varsha) existed and though the land was divided among many kingdoms (like it is currently, into many federated states), the ethos and nature of society in all those lands was common, and it was Hindu. Thus, when the Muslim invaders saw this land and the people residing there, they simply called all of them by one name, Hindustan...the land of Hindus.
@jellywaxfound are you trying to imply that the Buddha spoke "Hindi" like most Indians do today. sorry but the dialect he used was Pali. speak in terms of the present. Buddha was born in Nepal, got Enlightenment in India and Died in India. now that fair and unprejudiced.

Jesus learned from hinduism and buddhism google:jesus went to india
Jesus learned from hinduism and buddhism? get a life dude. don't just cite sources to make your case. make sure your sources are credible. your arguments concerning the buddha and jesus is like the one on genghis khan made by white supremacist called Karl Earlson who is caliming that Genghis Khan was a blue eyed, white Nordic person. Google genghis khan karl earlson. i have a strong abhorrence for propagandists like you.
@DarkPhychic there seems to be some truth in this idea of jesus' religious training in kashmir and india. kashmir was supposed to be the home to the lost '10 'lost tribes.' the place names of kashmir have a large number of hebrew place names.
My experience with buddhist monks in a monastery was that they were just as screwed up (in some cases more) than everyone else. I have heard the same thing from trappists who were monks: the monastery is not an escape from the world unfortunately - although it is quieter there.
I think the ONLY way to true happiness and utter bliss is to completely renounce our Western way of life and live like these monks away from all the maddness of people and society. Otherwise, happiness and bliss are almost impossible to attain at a signifcant and constant level. Unfortunately, none of us are willing to completely change and renounce our way of life (We are scared?), and therefore we are destined to continue being filled with grief, stress, anger, etc.
@atltom58 I am, too. Meditation is awesome. And I like hearing and learning how other meditators describe their experience in meditation and how they meditate. I already learned a lot by watching this vid.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
When U look at these people, just meditating their life away, one really wonders what they really get out of living in the first place. What do these people actually accomplish in life? They're just vegetables sitting there like potted plants. If all Society was like Buddhists, nothing would ever be built, no one would grow the food, they'd starve to death there on a dirt floor, naked, since no one would have built the house or make the clothing. Buddhists are truly cop-outs of Life & of living.
they grow their own food, and i would wager that they make their own clothes. they achieve happiness, that is their accomplishment. they do not waste their lives struggling for unattainable goals such as americans do. they are content with what they have and work for what they need, these are model human beings.
@roidrage11 Why would you single out Americans for their material need? Do you think all Americans want the same thing and believe the same faith? It is a cycle of misunderstand that you should stop. Did the Buddha said you have to do things exactly as the way he did?
@roidrage11 There are Americans who are Buddhist. There are Americans who are not Buddhist that don't waste their lives. Nothing is ever cut in stone, black and white, this is this and that is that.
@roidrage11 what you may see as an unattainable goal, others my see as a opportunity. one major part of being Buddhist is finding inner peace and happiness for yourself, not judging others for how they live there lives and how they persue happiness.
@roidrage 100% agreed. Might I add that a true Buddha (or Buddhist as many call them) will never pick on any religion, claim one religion higher than the other, or hold grudges or biases against any religion. They realize that a true religion would not include such disgusting, unequal, unfair views. A true religion or religious person would be open to the greatness and compassion and love that any true religion would teach. Its like unlimited ways, different words of acheiving the same thing.
@roidrage11 Americans? Making broad generalizations is ignorance. Many Americans seek the simple life and much of the world lives in a restless Capitalist society too. We are all seeking the path.
Your interpretation of what it means to live and be living is completely different than what someone else might think. Let Buddhists live their lives as they see fit and mind your own business. Many "christians" sit on their asses all day getting fat and collecting welfare. Which is worse?
@NDiesel31 If you are a true Buddhist, you will not think less of others just because their different ways of thinking. Your job as a buddhist is to spread the way of enlightenment. There is no such thing as absolute truth. I believe Christians have their own way of achieving their goals: through sacrifice, compassion, and love. Are christians the only people collecting welfare? Have you forgotten that monks aren't supposed to cook their own food, but beg for it?
@JixMa You seriously think that nothing would ever be built?
Just because they meditate doesn't mean they can't build a house. Just because they meditate doesn't mean they do it 24/7. Man you're dense.
If the whole world were Buddhists, I can tell you life would be much simpler, but there wouldn't be as much killings. Buddhism is one religion that doesn't hate on other religions. Look at almost any other religion and all you see is a history of bloodshed.
@JixMa Well what are we doing otherwise? The rest of us are just playing this endless game of trying to achieve a higher societal status with the end goal of gaining power, building egos, and having more material goods. All of which sprouts from directly from greed and envy.
Instead of going through the futility of trying to sate our greed and envy, it would be much simpler and more effective to deal with them directly through logic and meditation. We don't need to be monks to do that.
Wow I loved this video!

正宗的佛教？？？現在有多少年人知道真正的佛教及夾帶其他雜質的佛教！？？
一個要你不要貪婪但是卻比你更貪婪！蓋大建築廟宇自己享受在那當教主皇帝？？台灣的佛教就是這樣多數！這是金錢的宗教！追求高級及享受！組織的擴大！土地的收購！很難讓人相信這些人是不爭不搶不貪的！這與當時赤腳走路乞食為生的佛陀佛教差異太大！
所以真正的佛教的確可以改善自己的心及讓自己更平靜快樂！但是我所見的大多是被催眠的信徒！因為他們所追尋的都是那種手拿錢財只為自己享受卻口說為眾生的宗教！
太多這種亂七八糟讓人分不清的教授！他會代你到那裡？？佛教是要自己不要懷疑自己能力及努力！但是絕對希望你去懷疑別人所說！不要一因為人多或他身份不同就相信！對自己良知去自己證明及找答案！這是佛所教的！絕對不是那些要你完全相信他不能懷疑他們的那種教法！所以真正的佛法原始的教義及教團！對喜愛佛教的人來說才是真正重要的事！因為他將帶領你到不同的方向！！

But even in Buddha's time, the concept of India (Bharat varsha) existed and though the land was divided among many kingdoms (like it is currently, into many federated states), the ethos and nature of society in all those lands was common, and it was Hindu. Thus, when the Muslim invaders saw this land and the people residing there, they simply called all of them by one name, Hindustan...the land of Hindus.

@jellywaxfound are you trying to imply that the Buddha spoke "Hindi" like most Indians do today. sorry but the dialect he used was Pali. speak in terms of the present. Buddha was born in Nepal, got Enlightenment in India and Died in India. now that fair and unprejudiced.

@reality480 sorry dude,He speak sanskrit.Pali came around 2000 years before.
His mantras are all in sanskrit.
Stop applying your own logic "EGOISTIC"

Buddha was indian."ARYAN" ethnic group and thats why he was a "kshtriya"(warrior class sage).His fathers kingdom was in foothold of himalayas.Its where her mother had the dream of an elephant.She went to nepal when he was ready to birth.ANd Budhha speaked sanskrit.HIs mantras are all in sanskrit.
Buddhism was written down in PALI about 500 years after its death,It was passed down by disciplic succession.

@DarkPhychic
Jesus learned from hinduism and buddhism? get a life dude. don't just cite sources to make your case. make sure your sources are credible. your arguments concerning the buddha and jesus is like the one on genghis khan made by white supremacist called Karl Earlson who is caliming that Genghis Khan was a blue eyed, white Nordic person. Google genghis khan karl earlson. i have a strong abhorrence for propagandists like you.

@DarkPhychic there seems to be some truth in this idea of jesus' religious training in kashmir and india. kashmir was supposed to be the home to the lost '10 'lost tribes.' the place names of kashmir have a large number of hebrew place names.

My experience with buddhist monks in a monastery was that they were just as screwed up (in some cases more) than everyone else. I have heard the same thing from trappists who were monks: the monastery is not an escape from the world unfortunately - although it is quieter there.

I think the ONLY way to true happiness and utter bliss is to completely renounce our Western way of life and live like these monks away from all the maddness of people and society. Otherwise, happiness and bliss are almost impossible to attain at a signifcant and constant level. Unfortunately, none of us are willing to completely change and renounce our way of life (We are scared?), and therefore we are destined to continue being filled with grief, stress, anger, etc.

@atltom58 I am, too. Meditation is awesome. And I like hearing and learning how other meditators describe their experience in meditation and how they meditate. I already learned a lot by watching this vid.

When U look at these people, just meditating their life away, one really wonders what they really get out of living in the first place. What do these people actually accomplish in life? They're just vegetables sitting there like potted plants. If all Society was like Buddhists, nothing would ever be built, no one would grow the food, they'd starve to death there on a dirt floor, naked, since no one would have built the house or make the clothing. Buddhists are truly cop-outs of Life & of living.
JixMa 1 year ago
they grow their own food, and i would wager that they make their own clothes. they achieve happiness, that is their accomplishment. they do not waste their lives struggling for unattainable goals such as americans do. they are content with what they have and work for what they need, these are model human beings.

@roidrage11 Why would you single out Americans for their material need? Do you think all Americans want the same thing and believe the same faith? It is a cycle of misunderstand that you should stop. Did the Buddha said you have to do things exactly as the way he did?
uniterscron 1 year ago
@roidrage11 There are Americans who are Buddhist. There are Americans who are not Buddhist that don't waste their lives. Nothing is ever cut in stone, black and white, this is this and that is that.

@roidrage11 what you may see as an unattainable goal, others my see as a opportunity. one major part of being Buddhist is finding inner peace and happiness for yourself, not judging others for how they live there lives and how they persue happiness.

@roidrage 100% agreed. Might I add that a true Buddha (or Buddhist as many call them) will never pick on any religion, claim one religion higher than the other, or hold grudges or biases against any religion. They realize that a true religion would not include such disgusting, unequal, unfair views. A true religion or religious person would be open to the greatness and compassion and love that any true religion would teach. Its like unlimited ways, different words of acheiving the same thing.

@roidrage11 Americans? Making broad generalizations is ignorance. Many Americans seek the simple life and much of the world lives in a restless Capitalist society too. We are all seeking the path.

Your interpretation of what it means to live and be living is completely different than what someone else might think. Let Buddhists live their lives as they see fit and mind your own business. Many "christians" sit on their asses all day getting fat and collecting welfare. Which is worse?
NDiesel31 1 year ago 29
@NDiesel31 If you are a true Buddhist, you will not think less of others just because their different ways of thinking. Your job as a buddhist is to spread the way of enlightenment. There is no such thing as absolute truth. I believe Christians have their own way of achieving their goals: through sacrifice, compassion, and love. Are christians the only people collecting welfare? Have you forgotten that monks aren't supposed to cook their own food, but beg for it?
uniterscron 1 year ago
@JixMa You seriously think that nothing would ever be built?
Just because they meditate doesn't mean they can't build a house. Just because they meditate doesn't mean they do it 24/7. Man you're dense.
If the whole world were Buddhists, I can tell you life would be much simpler, but there wouldn't be as much killings. Buddhism is one religion that doesn't hate on other religions. Look at almost any other religion and all you see is a history of bloodshed.
You need to get out more.
stubaru 1 year ago
@JixMa Well what are we doing otherwise? The rest of us are just playing this endless game of trying to achieve a higher societal status with the end goal of gaining power, building egos, and having more material goods. All of which sprouts from directly from greed and envy.
Instead of going through the futility of trying to sate our greed and envy, it would be much simpler and more effective to deal with them directly through logic and meditation. We don't need to be monks to do that.
