How To Say No To Unimportant Things In Life | Buddhism In English 

I am a muslim.i subscribe this channel for listening practice and i watch his video regularly but there is one thing also i want to say that his advice is very helpful in practical life.

After my husband passed away last March, I realized life is so short and fragile. Thus, I am now gradually learning to say no to things or persons that don't appreciate me and that stirs up negative feelings in me.

I'm a Muslim but I listen this chaneel regularly Just few months before I listen these videos for learning English Now I listen these videos for learning about life

Buddha's teachings lead to Peace!

I'm a catholic eversince but I like the teachings of it coz it's taught us to be more understanding of teachings of buddha.i really amazed by their teachings about life.

This sweet man has such a sweet and loving manner..such wise words..wish could carry him around in my pocket to always be there to guide me 🙏🏻

And the conclusion is ......In order to achieve a happy life We have to learn to say no to unimportant things in life😊

Buddhism is Universal Truth ,And also Nature Truth we all are under that so live peacefuly "Namo Budhaya "🌍🌎🌏

Best channel to make your mind strong and focused. Iam CA student watching this video and really got inspired. And really from now i am trying to say no to the people who wasting my time.❤

I have been listing to your teaching because I don't find it anywhere else; not even in Thai Buddhist. I waste my life on the Christian and looking into Muslim that turns out to be violent religion. I knew of the History and following simple buddhist philosophy. Now I am walking on the Buddhist spiritual path faithfully.

God Blessings my Budist young friend. I adore listening to your teachings. 🙏🙏👏💕

Your smile and loving manner are a gift to us all. thank-you!

Dear thero,can you please bring a video for teenagers, how to change their lives in a good way🙏

1) Self awareness. Ask your self "why do you need to do this? Is it helpful to you, is it helpful to others?". 2) Self discipline. Know the priority and say no to less important things. 3) Know that time is limited. Look at time as you look at money. Then you will use it seriously. Money can be earned. But time cannot. 4) ask "is it really necessary". For example, scrolling social media vs talking to your kids 5) know what matters to you. Whats the most impt thing to do today to achieve the larger purpose?

Thanks a lot Sir for this Valuable session🙏🙏❤❤. I needed this very very much. 7:51-8:30 The most important thing in your life is the learning process,that is what helps to achieve more success.Learn to DISCARD the unimportant,fancy things in life and Practice SELF-DISCIPLINE. 9:57-10:41 - Respect time. It is more valuable than money. Money can be earned again but Lost time is never found again. Ask this magic question to yourself before doing anything :- "IS IT REALLY NECESSARY? Will it even help me ? " Channelize your valuable time in doing something valuable. Saying NO can be really hard but in order to achieve a happy and calmer life, a more disciplined life. we've to say NO to the unimportant things in life . PRACTICE these little tips and you will be happy in your life ❤🤗☺

Most people like listening to you because of the media selected and the way you explain. Use relevant examples, simple language, and the subject content is suitable for this modern society.

I like how he never talk about Bhudda or religion in his videos, the videos are very practical and anyone can do it to achieve what they want to achieve. I would like to see more videos like this to improve my inner self

Wow God Blessings To my Buddha's Friend.

Superb Swami Ji

Thank you for your wisdom!:)

Buddha's teachings are the good way to find out the real things in the world. Sometimes, you don't need to fallow Buddha if your aren't a Buddhist. If your are following another religion or you are a non-religious it isn't the serious problem. Just listen to Buddha to find out about his teaching and don't consider too much if he was a god or not. Just listen to his teaching if you think it good to your life.

Thank you so much for this great reminder ❤ Namo buddhaya

You are so absolutely right, thank you 🙏. Namo Buddhaya 🌹❤️

Thank you Sir for this valuable session ....🌹 Namo Buddhaya 🙏🙏🙏
