  • @MonochromeMentality

    Awareness..this is your true self..You are Aware of your mind, your emotions, your body..this formles, never changing container

  • if you have no idea what your monkey mind is and how powerful it is, do a meditation retreat you will see how it can blabber on...

  • Thank you, Rinpoche -- wishing all auspicious circumstances for your extended retreat -- and joyfully anticipate your return to teaching!

  • I found this when I really needed it. Thank you.

  • @MonochromeMentality i think "monkey mind" is reffering more to evolutionary-drive-instictial-­primitive mind which you are trying to get under control.. on the other end are all this commercial projections which are brainwashing you to be controlled by your monkey-mind..

  • This is a great explanation of meditation thank you very much! But still I have some questions:He said that you can learn to control the mind. That implies that your self is not the mind. It implies too, that your true self can act and control the mind without using a mind. So what is it than can act without mind or body, that can "think of" a job and giving it to the mind without using a thinking/remembering mind and that can experience the true being of mind, body and life without being them?

  • lmao this guy is great!!comedian nice lol :D

  • This is the true master! He really understands and knows how to comunicate! Thank you!

  • Brilliant explanation from a true master

  • Love this guy!
