Emptiness: Empty of What? | Thich Nhat Hanh (short teaching video) 

Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. Namo Buddhaya.

🙏

@Jean 2500 or 2700 doesn't matter. Its a conventional number by design. Time is relative... it is empty of self-nature.

Jainism is also interesting check it out

buddhism is 2520 year old, taosim is 2570year old, hinduism 3000years old

​@@freeworld88888Hinduism??? Without any relevant dates and data

​@freeworld88888 That is not HINDUISM. The ..3000 year old is animal sacrificing BRAHMINISM... Don't use word HINDU, it is not mentioned in any scriptures written by BRAHMINS, 4 VEDA, MANUSMRITI, 120 UPANISHADS, 18 PURANA, even in valmiki RAMAYANA & VEDAVYASA MAHABHARATH ..... Word HINDU is not mentioned by even Adi Shankaracharya (8th century A.D) in any of his book and commentaries... When he himself did not mention the word HINDU, How did he unite HINDUISM is a biggest mystery in HINDUISM..... Word Hindu first mentioned in Kitab ul-Hind is the famous book written by the scholar Al-Biruni. Al-Biruni was a Persian historian, mathematician, and astronomer. In 11 th century A.D.... Only Brainless brahmins and their Varna followers say HINDUISM 3000 yrs old ....😂😅😂 SO, I AM A HINDU BUT NON-BRAHMINIC HINDU......

Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. Namo Buddhaya.

many concepts of Buddhist thought are quite difficult for some to embrace. The confusion before you in any given teacher or message is just as much a part of your Dharma as any of your past lives.

Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. Namo Buddhaya.

Rach What is THN ?

She refers to Thich Nhat Hanh of course.

@@jt11erink That is just an assumption, of course.

What you said makes a lot of sense to me :)

Emptiness is challenging for me to comprehend too. But TNH really helps me get closer.

Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu. Namo Buddhaya.

even the recipe for some of the highest heavens could only be found behind the gates of the lowest hells

If you find this helpful, you might like the teachings at Pure Land Buddhism.

@@13c11a Pure Land Buddhism does not exist - it is pseudoscience. Thich Nhat Hanh is explaining real Buddhist teachings not delusional ones like the ones from Pure Land.

@@trillionmindfulintentions2132 It's good you have money; you have no skillful means.

@@13c11a Pureland Buddhism is about waiting till you die to achieve enlightenment. Nhat Hanh’s teachings were of Zen Buddhism - where this life is one where you can achieve nirvana while you are alive without needing to die.

@@trillionmindfulintentions2132 No, that is not the teaching of Pure Land. It is possible to achieve samadhi here in this life by chanting the Buddha's name. If you want to understand Pure Land, read some of the books about it or spend some time on the Pure Land Buddhism site. Don't assume you know something you don't actually know, and then criticize it. Learn first. Always seek to learn and don't criticize. That is not the Buddha's way.

Yes, imagine how large many species could grow to if we weren't always killing them.

TNH taught Zen Buddhism. He expounded Heart Sutra and Diamond Sutra that I studied, which I am grateful.. I learnt a different angle of understanding here. it is different than Pureland Buddhism or Tantric or Theravada.

Greeks knew that greco buddhism

i think they did come now and then

It’s like living in a society of addicts who don’t even realize they’re addicted! But from what I hear the east is unfortunately becoming much the same way in many regards, sadly.

one time i walked so far west that i wound up east

It's quite simple really. Nothing has an inherent self. We are all the result of previous actions that came before us. We are simply the universe in motion, dying and being reborn each and every minute moment. The Buddha's teachings of dependent origination will probably make it clearer for you. Emptiness, karma, and dependent origination all go hand-in-hand. Another great Zen master, Suzuki-Roshi, once said when asked by a student to give the whole of Buddhism in a nutshell, "Everything is change"

emptyness does mean nothing, emptyness of what answered my question ❤

The 8 links of Interdependent Origination must be understood intellectually but REALIZED with discernment.

What/who felt the unpleasantness? What/who was experiencing the illusion? I am really curious. How did the breath feel? What did the body feel like? I have many many questions if you have some time to share.

@@nomad_333_ it seems that there was some kind of consciousness... I am not sure I can answer your questions because although it lasted 3 whole human days, it feels like it was just a passing moment when I try to remember this state.

@@nomad_333_ The conclusion of the experience I had is that there is nothing around us, externally, what the senses perceive is only the construction of a conciousness that wants to lead us in this unification process. There is nothing around us. All humans around represent the broken pieces we have inside. We all have the same purpose in life but different paths. All souls are looking for love and acceptance. Real love has no identity, no desire, no name, no preference. Real love has no FEAR.

Sounds like clinging was still present, which is not complete emptiness. Or perhaps when clinging returned after the 3 days, perception constructed the feeling of dislike. Self is a habit pattern. It is the shadow of desire (liking and disliking). Until ignorance/craving is dissolved, perception will continue to construct self out of sensory experience. Keep practicing without any preferences and you will get past this hang up

You experienced void. This implies that there were two thing at the moment of experience you and the void itself. Seems duality to me.

Dear friend, please have a look at the video description. 🙏

@@plumvillageapp My thanks, brother.

Yes but no permanent one.

They teach that the self is a construct, that it actually doesn't exist. Sounds scary to me.

If you think about it, doesn’t the concept of a a permanent self seem implausible? Even over the course of one human life, the illusion that is one's concept of self undergoes countless changes.

​@@direfranchement Then, what is that?? That is aware of self undergoing countless changes???

Dear Dara, thank you for the kind words. Yes, try the 'show transcript' feature under the video and a window with the transcript will open next to the video. Hope this helps. With gratitude 🙏

@@plumvillageapp Thank you kindly for you reply. Am very much aware of this feature that exists only on a cell phone app which for the moment I do not possess. Thought there is a way to find on my Mac too.

What contradictions between Buddhism and advaita have you noted?

For last 2000 years, they are explaining emptiness only.
