(11) Rebirth, Reincarnation or Continuation? | A Teaching on Karma by Thich Nhat Hanh, 2009-06-21 

He is ! ❤️

@@Bestbeachesincalifornia He is. ❤

The Master lit the light in our heart to not being afraid of uncertainties, death and darkness. Deep Bows~

If you don't continue as YOU, it's all futile.

I pray you reject this false teaching and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ. Don't believe the lie of no life after death or reincarnation. Jesus was our sacrifice for our sin as He faced the wrath of God. He died on that cross and 3 days later her rose from the dead so we could be justified and washed in His blood. The blood that spilt on that cross is the blood that washes all our sin away. I pray you receive the Lord Jesus and follow Him and not these false teachings. Jesus is the Only way to have peace with God and to enter in Paradise after death. So I pray you receive our great Savior Jesus Christ and let His Spirit walk in you and guide you all the days of your life. Bless you in Jesus Name

He was indeed an extraordinary person, a good teacher.

Estou profundamente tocada pelos ensinamentos do Mestre! Incrível clareza em falar, em transmitir ... só cheguei agora mas creio que ele estava me aguardando... Obrigada!

You should be crying. Cuz he's telling you you will die. Anyone that finds this "optimistic" is on drugs or psychotic.

@@chickenlover657 LOL you missed his entire point.

@@singaporeano Oh? And what was his point then?

Idea is not clear to him

@@atinsanyal8080 That which is not clear; It's not an idea or him; But is One's false mind! 😃

If I want to? I want rest. I absolutely hate to live and be with other humans and work etc. I want to stop exist, can I ever choose that?

@@Olivia-bs5wj The mind seeks rest, not non-existence. In non-existence there is no experience, there is no witness to experience rest or restlessness. I don't want to repeat like a parrot what this Buddhist master says, I can say from my personal experience. When I was a child I was very sociable and good at jokes. When I was a student, I was depressed because I didn't have a competitive nature. Especially since I was a student at the music conservatory and the teachers recognized that I had certain talents, but I couldn't emotionally express them to the maximum capacity on stage. I had to study much more than some colleagues who had an extroverted nature, in order to be confident in myself. Being more sensitive, I felt the aggression of the collective mentality and I was depressed. Then, at another stage in my life, I started some spiritual practices because I was attracted to such things and I had read many books. Starting with simple and basic things, it became more than a passion and I discovered immense pleasure in daily practice. The more I practiced and received a higher initiation, the more I changed. The changes for the better happened without me intending, just through consistent daily practice. Now I am a different person than I was 5 years ago or 10 years ago. And I'm certainly a different person than 20 years ago when I was a student and was always depressed, that's what those who know me say, it's not just my opinion. So the question is: who was sociable and good at jokes, then who was depressed and had anxiety, then who was passionate and happy about the new perspectives? Now I am no longer any of these variants, I am different. If I wanted to commit suicide due to depression 20 years ago, today I was no longer this person. So if nothing existed after the death of the body, the last experience is depression not rest. If the mind survives, then we continue with depression without the possibility of producing rapid transformations.

Yet still maintaining a connection to things, people,situations but not being emotionally attached to the impermanent and changing nature of these things. Connected yet not attached

@@sleepydank8330 I think attachment is still fair, we are only human and meditation only removes so much attachment. Grief is still grief, however it can be handled skillfully and with equanimity.

Wie difinierst Du Laie🥀

I pray that you reject this man's teachings and follow the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Don't believe the lie of no judgement after death. The lie that there is no Heaven or hell after death. Jesus died on a cross and faced the wrath of God for us so we wouldn't have to. 3 days later He rose from the dead so we could be justified and washed in His blood. His blood is our atonement for all sin. You cannot enter heaven without the blood of Jesus. You cannot have peace with God without Jesus. So I pray if you don't know the Lord Jesus that you receive Him by faith and follow Him. Don't follow these teachings that will lead you to hell but follow the Lord Jesus Christ who delivered us from hell and prepared a Paradise for us in His Kingdom. He loves you so much that He poured out His precious blood for us on a cross. Follow Jesus and turn from the false teachings of this man. Lord Jesus, thank you for dying in my sin for me. Thank you for your sacrifice and for your precious blood that you poured out for me when you died on the cross, taking my place. Thank you Father in Heaven for crushing Jesus in my place and for placing Your wrath on Him. Jesus thank you for rising from the dead and for accepting me into your kingdom. I confess Jesus as Lord and believe You raised Him from the dead for me Father in Heaven. Show me how to follow your Son Jesus all the days of my life and guide me in all my ways Jesus I give my soul and life to you I lay myself down at your feet. In Jesus name I pray amen

@@likenl4508 Thanks for sorting that out for us.

@lYorl and it doesn’t mean they’re not real.

In buddhism all views are wrong views. You either have the wisdom or you don't. Wisdom is only attained after completely understanding the eight foldpaths

Exactly

Yeah, it’s weird I must admit

I believe birth and death happen we rebirth on earth , because some people are born in wars and suffering and others are born rich others are born more spirtual why ?

the root of suffering is craving for permanence. Pain and pleasure are both subjects of cravings or aversions

Agreed

if consciousness were unchanging learning would be impossible

Question everything

Can Agree to disagree? Neither is here nor there. Existence is Conscious.

Hi Adam. Nihilism is when you believe human values to be baseless and life as pointless. Its different from Annihilationism which is the belief that when you die you are completely destroyed and nothing remains. It has its roots in Christianity and the last judgement but I believe it is more widely considered than just that one source. Hope that helps. And yes. Thay was an amazing character and this talk is wonderful.

It seems to me you are positing a continuation which has the flavour of eternalism. It is very common in Buddhism. I would recommend revisiting this video regularly. I could never explain it better than such a wise teacher. Of course, I could be wrong. I’m just a guy 🙂.

The atma or the "I" is an illusion. The five mental processes constantly create the "I". So by anatta or no-self, Buddha meant there is no "I" but only an illusion of "I". 2) that "I" is impermanent, that means it is constantly arising and dissolving and re-arising every moment. That's what meant by Rebirth. Here in this very body, you are constantly being born and constantly dying. 3) when the body dies, the mind dies and with it the "I" dies. Complete annihilation. No more rebirth or re- incarnation in another body.

@@Vicky-fl7pv a belief you hold there. Nobody knows what death is

It can’t

@@user-ok4nr5rc9h so when it doesnt feel life its dead or not?

@@Signal6000 I don't think its dead or alive to be dead it had to of first been alive.

Body and mind are one, one cannot exist without the other.

nirvana is free the mind from understanding (feeling) the world through memory which is thinking. memories are static so when you are thinking of something you are out of this continuation of the now because you are working in the past. the tool for that is meditation which is freeing the mind of the known.

​@@anestos2180so what happens to people who are bad and rape and kill ?

@@thenarrowdoor7 what do you mean, after they die? nothing happens same as the "good" deed people ! its all here and now there is no after

i didn't notice until you pointed it out

But I hate humans and I hate to live. Will I become lonely when I die? I just want peace and not exist ever again in any form

@@Olivia-bs5wj You are not alone. I hate to live as well. I hate vampires (greed). But I don't hate humans (love). The problem is that there are not many humans left.

Why

@@Manhunternew he is condemning concept of soul going to heaven and that counsiusness is not permanent which is not true .. You can check psychic medium Matt frazer n others , you ll know

I feel he is wrong either because what happens to evil people ?
