The thing that matter is how we see the world and how we treat others.. I thank myself for all the hard work and growth I had this year.. I'm grateful to everyone for the things they did for me 🥰 I'm inspired by many nice people.. whom I met this year.. My resolution would be- being more kind & helping to others..🥰 And coming out of my comfort zones.. 🙂 & I'm gonna appear for a competitive exam this year..🤩 I promise to give my best! bless me 😃🙏

Lesson I learnt from 2022 " Change is the only constant. If you resist change you suffer. Embracing change brings peace and contentment in life" Namo Buddhaya

Lesson I learnt from 2022 "don't try to impress others,try to impress YOURSELF and never ever waste your time trying to convince others or caring about what they think about you'' Happy New Year Namo Buddhaya

I am a 10 year old. At first, i could not control what my mind did. I had a small habit of not thinking before i spoke. When 2022 came over, i started listing to more sermons and reading more dhamma books. After some time i found out it was easier to control my mind. I dearly thank this channel for teaching me great things. Namo buddhaya.

Wish you a peaceful new year, everyone! Namo Buddhaya! 🙏🙏🙏

Wish you happy new year to my all friends 😍🥰🥰

Lesson i learned this year is giving priority to yourself first is important and this helped me so much to know myself more. Not forcing things that you can't control and not having expectations too high... Wish you all a very happy new year.....😇Namo Buddhaya..🙏

Every ending is a beginning for something new. Don't define every heartbreak as a bad thing. Make it as an opportunity to improve yourself. If anyone has hurt you, forgive them for your own good. It's okay if you feel you lost yourself, because knowing leads to finding yourself back again. Learn to let go of things or people who Don't want to be in your life anymore. If you love someone, love them purely and if they want to leave, let them go with love, for only people who love purely can do so.

This year has taught me many lessons despite being the worst year of my life; -Never be afraid of losing anyone -Never take life too seriously -Believe in yourself and your own power -Don't break too easily.

One best thing in 2022 through your channel came across to me!! Though I'm full catholic I embraced the great teachings of the Supreme Buddha and I'm thankful for guidance in daily life too.

I have been watching your videos for a few days now and I'm learning to be more patient, calm, etc. and rather than being angry, I try my best to choose the kindness in my heart. Thank you!! You're helping so many souls in the world! ❤️ I hope you all have a great New Year ☺️

The day I started watching these videos, my heart was healed. My way of thinking changed a lot. Learned to cope well with the ups and downs of life. Thank you 🙏 Namo buddhaya 🌼❤️

Some days I spent time in tears. I felt sorry for myself. However, now I feel like I shouldn't have done them. So, next year I won't waste my precious time being sad.😊🙏❤️

Awasarayi hamuduruwaneh ! The lesson I learnt from 2022 is that, if we feel really loved by the people around us, specially our loved ones, then it's really easy for me to do my studies well. Namo Buddhaya awasara ...!!!

From this year I have learnt human life is to much precious,so we should not have to waste it in evil deeds and we are only one who can make our life journey more peaceful and beautiful no other can do it for us ,but only we can do it for ourself.

My Mum has been in Hospital all over the Christmas period and faces a possible diagnosis of cancer. What I’ve learned is don’t take your parents for granted and make sure you spend plenty of time with them. I’d also say don’t take your health for granted either, so be kind and compassionate towards each other, especially the sick and the vulnerable. This channel has helped me considerably these past two weeks and I want to thank this Monk for his calming videos. Namo Buddhaya

I have let go of most of my ego and whatever is left I am observing and dealing with. I have learnt to be observer and I have learnt who I am really all - which is limitless. I am at peace at last ... And I still have plenty of time left to enjoy this spiritual bliss! So greatful! And also I have learnt to listen to spiritual world....

Have learnt a lot from you Swamiji. Your calm demeanour and positivity is infectious. Just listening to you is soothing and inspiring. Thank you🙏

Nothing is forever in this world not even our problems ❤

I have learned a lot from your channel, I’ve learned to forgive myself, be friendly to myself and love myself, then I have energy to love others. Namo Buddhaya

Being humble in life is prime glory... Namo budhaaa... 🙏

The best thing I learnt in this year is value of time which shouldn't be wasted 😌 happy new year.❤ namo budhdhaya🙏

I have become stronger than ever before. Also, I started loving myself more.❤

I realise hapiness is not depend on money , relationships or materialistic things.Hapiness is calm and peaceful mind.We recieve what we put to outer world. That is wht Im learn in this year.

Vandami bhante😃 By the end of 2022 I had statred to watch these videos I had learn a lot form these videos. It is helping me to deal with my anxiety and negative thoughts. By two days I had experience that I was thinking all about my past achievements so my negative thoughts was converting into positive one and I am trying my best to practice these wholesome thoughts in my life. And I will also try my best to achieve my goals in 2023 and not to waste my time and thankyou so much for providing these videos😀😀. May all living beings be happy and peaceful in their life.

Advance happy near 2023 🎊 May this year can bring us blessings and fullfill desires I learnt lessons from this year is to become more confident in working ,overcome my fear and making right decision, more mature😁 and loving my family 🥰

Lesson i learnt put inner peace over literary anything , the pleasure of waking yourself up spiritually is another level and reaching 5th dimension is what i call success

My biggest lesson this year is accepting my identity and being vulnerable with myself. I learned how to stop running away from my identity and shortcomings. I accepted them and sought out a new fresh start. Although it is challenging and rocky right now, I am telling myself that I am moving somewhere.

I have learnt...... The most important thing is to be kind to others and help others.... No matter what life throws at you we must believe in ourselves and take decisions with a calm mind and one must have a spiritual belief so he can decipline himself.

Lessons I learnt from: 2022 'Everything will be allright in the end, if its not allright then its not the End.' Never loose hope. One bad chapter can't define your future. Past is a lesson, to improve yourself to a better version. Dont think to much about past and future, Keep clam always. Time will speak everything. 😊 Namo Buddhya! ❤️🙏

So a little bit of mine in this year was I behave as a careles person...the thing which gives me happiness somewhere I lacked to keep it private so my past year was good but there were many worst days also but this ends up with the passed year...Now from the 2023 I'm gonna start my new journey for my loved one...there were many regrets but now I'm forgiving me and every person for what they did...let's start the new journey of new year for ourself so show some love to your own be kind to your own and fight for your dreams to fulfill them ...lastly hey everyone we can do it and we will make it👍👍...stay blessed 🙂🙂.... happy new year 🥳🙂🎊

I have Learned Love is neither a sentiment nor Feelings It is Ultimate Truth ❤❤ Wish you a peaceful New Year Everyone ! "Upar wala sab dhekta hai" Namo Buddhaya! 🙏❤

I learned how to trust people who is your own and who is pretending to be who loves you and who is pretending to love and how to make yourself strong and bheave in the situation in which you are

I've learned in 2022. Patience gives me time to totally understand any situation and that allows me to make a better decisions

Lesson that i learned from 2022 ... 1. Respect the other decission .... 2.Accept the reality .... 3.removing unwanted things from mind .... Just focus only about my carrier... TQ soo much sir your videos are so inspiring and I found many solutions from your videos ....TQ so much ..pls sir tell me about your resolution.. namo buddaya🙏

I can ' t describe in words..this channel changed my life..& Happy new year to all..😊❤

The lesson I learned from 2022 "Don't push yourself to be accepted and be loved by others, accept and love yourself first. Acceptance and embracing yourself can make you feel better inside and out. Happy New Year Namo Buddhaya

Whenever I try to imagine the face of the peace I see your face. I don't know why but that's true.....

In this year, I taught how to stay calm with every single situation and that was change my life, thank you and happy new year ✌️✌️✌️💚💚💚🕊️🕊️🕊️👍👍👍

I have "stumble" on your videos couple months ago and really love it, brings me clarification on my toughts and confirming my beliefs, thank you so much. All the best and keep the good work like you do so far.

Most valuable And important thing is happiness and being happy ✨

Do more self care. Stop doing so much for others who aren’t there for me. Keep smiling keep positive. I’m bigger and better then my problems. Loved ones are what matters. Be happy. Know my worth. Keep being kind even to those who are not as they need it the most. Love and peace to you all 🙏🏻

Even though I started to watch these videos 2 months back I learnt so many things. All the videos brings me up. I learnt to be a best version of myself, let it go what bothers me, to help people without expecting nothing, how to face for blames and praise. Great fullness.. How bad the situation is ,it is not permanent everything can be change within next few seconds that is the best thing I have learnt. I become a person who can Tolerate things and confident by watching these videos .. Please do many more motivational segments because people need these things to be strong in front of their problems and to become strong spiritually. Namo Buddhaya🙏🏻🙏🏻 Theruwan Saranai 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I have learnt the lesson , if we need peace ,adjust with ourselves, we can't expect to change others, but we can change our mind accordingly, then only we will get peace! Praying for all, for the blessings of Almighty God . Thank you for the advices, that helps all of us to stabilize our mind.

I suprised about your virtue of humility , Namo buddhaya Theruwan saranai swaminwahansa.

I learned a lot from this channel, I was reminded to keep my speech pure, to pass it through the 3 filters, I was reminded that I can only change myself and not to get upset when others don't act in a way i do not like. These videos are especially helpful since I have done a 10 day Vipassana course and hence I am able to try and apply these teachings.

Happy new year . This year , don't be goal oriented instead be process oriented. Have moderate expectations. These words are still vibrating in my ears. Namo Budhaya.🙏

The lesson I learnt this year is Being myself no matter what the people think or say about me and spending a life with low expectations is very comfortable for myself ❤️ and also i realised stay calm and thinking about what causes the pain and find the solutions are the best way to get rid of any kind of pain that suffers from ❤️ Namo buddhaya 🙏

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 The main Lesson learnt from year 2022 is that “Time is Precious and mange wisely”

Happy New Year💐🎂🎊🙏.The lesson I learnt in 2022 is to do my work in correct way and should not bother about negative results.

I have learned that Karma eventialy comes back. I am certainly feeling the effect presently and its heart breaking. I am owning it,learning from it and hopefully moving forward with a clean slate. I will be the best version of my self in 2023. Thank you for your wonderful videos. I always look forward to watching them. Wishing you and all Buddhists a wonderful New Year. Thank you,Thank you . Thank you. Let there be peace on earth for all.

Thank you venerable for great advice for the new year. The most valuable lesson I learnt in 2022 is mastering the art of let go by forgiving some people who did trouble me particularly at work. Whenever someone did something bad to me or misunderstood me I always thought I shouldn't suffer for their bad karma. It's up to them and I can't control their attitude, so I forget and forgive without wasting my energy on them. 🙏🙏🙏

lessons I learnt from 2022 is If I do what is easy today my life will be hard tomorrow but if I do what is hard today my life will be easy tomorrow. Thank you so much for encouraging me and for giving positive things to my life. Namobuddaya🙏🏻

I learnt not to get emotionally attached to the people, and don’t loose your self respect

I learnt one thing that we have to give more importance to ourselves. That is we have to prioritise our task first and after that we can go and help others .

Namo Buddhay 👏 Wishing you all a happy new year ahead ❤️

I learnt that it’s very important to choose your profession and job that you do everyday because you spend your life on it more than anything. And how silence is very important. This is the very first video I watched as I wake up Jan 1 today . This year I watched all your videos and it helped me a lot besides reading books and going To temple . Thank you ❤❤❤

Vandami Bhanteji, From New year 2024, started to read "Dhammapada" on a daily basis by me. Namo buddhay !

Happy new year all my dear friends... God bless you all... ☺

My experience told me that it's year a man never keep on his promise continuously and my whole year observation is nothing is parmanent in this world 💕💕 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🙏🙏🙏

I am very grateful for your daily spiritual guidance and buddhist life coaching during 2022 here on youtube. Thank you very much for the peace, joy and confidence you brought into my life. I wish you the very best for 2023 which, I hope will be more peaceful for all of us! Namo Buddhaya

I learned to detach myself from toxic people. I have to learn spiritual values and have a moderate expectations.

In 2022 I have learnt how good it makes me feel when I have been kind to someone, especially if that someone is a stranger to me. A very Happy New year to all. X

lesson I learnt in 2022''some tyme people treat us poorly because we throw our self first''

I learned a lesson which taught me that not everyone brings positivity in my life, and I should surround myself with those who do. And my dream for 2023 is to become a Buddhist, but I don’t know how…. Can you help me become what you are today? Your video’s have brought peace into my life, thank you. Namo Buddhaya.

I've learned to control my mind in 2022. Whenever my mind start to wander into negativity or start thinking about my painful past, I will distract my mind by doing meditation.

Dear Monk, The videos were full of valuable lessons.They brought light to our spiritual minds. One of the most important lessons that I learnt was to be happy about myself. I learnt to be the best version of myself without comparing myself with others. I realised that the battle is within me. Another great lesson that I learnt was to not be afraid of failure since it is a part of life. Also, I understood that life is like a book which contains happy as well as sad chapters. This lesson showed me the path to focus on the bright side of my life when things go wrong. May triple gem bless you.

Turned 18 this year and this is what I learnt from 2022... Stop caring...seriously just stop caring about what the society thinks and do whatever that makes you feel good about yourself and gives you fulfillment in life. Be kind to everyone, no matter how they are just dont keep any toxic feelings like hatred, anger and jealousy. Forgive. Forgiving people really lightens the burden. Don't take the ones who truly love you and care for you for granted. Be grateful for what you have and return the love and respect they deserve. Never stop believing in yourself! You have more potential than you think Start working for your dream and start investing in your mind...☺

Lessons that i learnt in this year : i learnt a lot of thing in this year 2022. In the beginning of this year i was just a girl who knows nothing about this world. Also i was dealing with depression. But now i learnt how to deal with people, how to act in different situation and how to get rid the bad. I learnt to be optimistic. And also this youtube channel has helped me to grow as a better person. I identify what my passion is and i'm going to work on that in 2023. I'm super greatful to this channel and to you. I wasn't interested in buddhism even though i was born buddhist. But becouse of this channel, i realized there is something so much deep in buddhism than the way we have traditionally learnt. Thank you! And i wish 2023 is going be the best year for all of us. Happy new year!!!

Watching this on 1,1 2024

I learnt so many things in 2022 but the most important lesson is ....never I mean never trust anyone (except your parents) too much , i learnt to differentiate between true and fake people, i learnt to be myself and no matter what always stay stong and last but not least you are the one n only who is responsible for everything (good or bad) if it's good then be proud yourself, if it's bad then don't give up, just wake up and start from beginning.

🙂

I learnt that we shouldn't give the key of our happiness to others ' hand...we should keep it with us.. Triple gem bless you swamin wahansa... Namo buddhaya...🙏🙏🙏

Kindness, compassion, honesty, open-mindedness, willingness, humility, acceptance, faith, trust. commitment & surrender. The highly sought traits of Seekers of the Truth.

I learnt to stay away from bad people and focus on me and try to do good for people in need which I try to do and Try not to stress my self out when people hurt me

I built my self esteem, Will never let anyone devalue me ever again, so I took a decision to love myself more. I learnt the power of a solid support system especially when we are at our lowest. No man is an island.

After watching you listening you my thoughts change ❤ love you ❤

Lesson learnt this year. Attachments to anything bring only sorrow. To love without expectations or attachments.

I can't write. But i learn many lessons. Thanku for everything. Namo buddhaya

You have taught me to live in the present and that I do not have to let negative thoughts control me. I can just observe them and not let them become a part of me.

Learnt to give first priority for myself and make me happy .forgiveness ..also learnt follow buddhas way.That is the most precious lesson i got from 2022

i learnt that u should focus on urself ..and believe in urself ..u should not deeply invovled in a reltionship with tempeorary people because it hurts alot in the end.my first day of new year went so bad ..i cant explain the pain ...i felt guilty about my past because a message of my ex ...on 1st day of new year ..i literally cried so much ..but still managed to be happy ..because of my parents and my friends ..today i see this video so just wanted to share the experience ...that ur past doesnt defines you it was just a bad experience .focus on present and ur happiness should be ur priority ..so i promise to you that i will not ruin this year on doubting myself i will give myself a chance to be happy and guilt free ..thankyou for this beautiful video.

I have learnt to recognise when I am in pain, and that trying to deny what hurts, only extends the time of hurting, I need to accet the the pain fully and then explore and investigate what is causing the pain and then do my best to nourish myself in whatever way is healing. When I remind myself of this I feel restored, that being said I need to remind myself of this process until it becomes a habit that comes to mind each time I am challenged by something difficult. It does help a great deal. It teaches me to be gentle with myself. I learnt this lesson from Tara Brach and have been very greateful. I appreciate your chanel as finding community in Wpg. has not been easy.

I have came here to improve English. I have learned the style to talk English and also learn to be happy, cool and kind . The most helpful thing was the practice of Mudita

I learnt so many things in this year 2022. 1- Focus only on urself, no matter what ppl are thinking & saying about uh, Let them think or say 2- Don't believe in anyone except uh & ur family members,,,& never ever believe in any online individual bcz uh will never come to know, what they've in their mind. 3- Always be conscious, don't dwell in the past & don't create future at all, just live in the +nt moment, You'll be always happy:) 4- Always be positive,. No matter What's the situation. 5- Don't try to make ppl understand if they aren't understanding uh,, just leave that topic & person & move forward. 6- Don't make any kinda toxic friendship & relationship with anybody, Being alone is better than going in such kinda relationship. 7- Try to learn every single day something new,, bcz life is all about learning & evolving ourselves that's it. At the age of 18th I learnt lots of things from ppl....& Now I've entered in 19th & I'm gonna completely change myself in upcoming year 2023 But till now I've regret, that I should have learned all the things early but I learned too late :( I've regret that I Wasted my precious time with those ppl who never cared of me, Who used to take advantage of my kindness....😔😔😔😔 But it's okk, :) Wish uh Happy New Year :)

I would travel around the world to meet you in person to hear this inspiring & motivational talks about Buddha. Looking forward for a wonderful year ahead. Namo Buddhaya 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you!! I see the change in me😊 Namo Buddhaya
