Buddhist Meditation (2) Bhavana

[vintnerster]

What a lucid, easily accessible discourse on Dhyana and Bhavana!

I like the b.g. sounds too. They're part of "what's going on."

Thank you for your kindness Sadhu ka I was so glad to listen your teaching and telling stories about Ajan Cha. I have met him and listened his teaching at Wat nong Pa Pong more than 30 years ago. I always listen to his tape most of his tapes are not so clear because it was recorded by an old fashion device. If you are kindly translate or re-record them again and public in You Tube,it would be a very kind of you, thanking in advance.

Truly a great way to live. There are times when I have thought of how nice it would be to a Monk, living in a Monastery.

[Colstonewall]

Awesome, I'm cultivating these videos!!! I also enjoy the background noises.

Buddhists dont usually tell jokes because it takes a 1000 years for people to understand the punchline! Buddhists don't usually tell jokes because people always reply havn't we heard that one before! Buhhists are not interested in maths because all their sums add up to one!

This video is such a great blessing. This wonderful monk is highly trained by his teacher. His teacher was the great Ajhahn Chah. Ajahn Chah is one of the most highly respected and loved Theravada Buddhist teachers. The monk who is teaching us, here, is from England. He moved to Thailand to study with his teacher. He learned Thai and wrote the biography of his teacher after Ajahn Chah died. To have this teaching here on Youtube is truly a lovely and great thing. May you all be happy.

Thank you for recording and posting this. This is truly charity.

[trkshcf23]

does not the illustrious one, Buddah, believe that one is with nature, we are all united for the sole fact that we all seek our own path, and all have our own ways. This noise you speak of, merely is what the great buddah hears when he walks through the woods.. all their sounds become apparent to him and he is for that reason wise.

[shailesh2k1in]

thanks to you tube for all these.

[lileichmann]

I actually like the background noises. I think it helps cultivate the mind/body present awareness. Label it and let it go.

[tina240]

Thanks .I found answers to many questions.I watched all of your videos and enjoyed and learned lot.

[kirk7524875248]

Is this Monk still in seclusion, or is there a place one could go to study under him now?

[slowzen]

Wiki says he is living at the foot of the Khao Yai mountains (wherever that is). But you can always go to Wat Pah Nanachat and get teaching of a similar kind.

[bodhiguytx]

No need to apologize for the background music. Made me wish i was there meditating on sounds! Sounded like a wonderful place to do a retreat...

[throbbylovegusset]

Surely the background noise ( for which you apologise) is part of the whole. I found it added to the teaching!!!

[FLABERGAG]

Monks for the large part. I relize thier eyes are squinted like the video above. Interesting.. Maybe thats how you tell if someone "thinks" that they are enlightened? maybe?

[impermanentoo]

Meditation monks generally sleep a lot less than most people. They wake up before 4am every morning. On top of that, they have to teach. For his case, produce video as well.

Life of a monk is not easy but very fulfilling

[Aaibtd]

His eyes aren't squinted. His face is just relaxed. :P Although, in the Patimokkha (the code of behaviour that they follow), they are required to keep their eyes downcast while they are walking, unless they need to look around for safety (such as looking both ways before crossing the street). I would imagine it creates a habit of keeping the eyelids relaxed and low-hanging. But that's not squinting, because there aren't any stress lines around his eyes.
