The goal of this podcast is to explore the deeper realms of life "intelligently". To share new profound ways of looking at the mundane and the ordinary and to demystify the mystical. Profundus invites you to embark on this deeper odyssey inwards and to help you navigate your way towards the "extraordinary world". As Nisargadatta once said, "The other world is this world seen rightly!"
Guided Zazen (20 Minutes)
In this episode, I guide you into zazen, also known as shikantaza, or the do-nothing meditation of Zen Buddhism. Please sit in a silent place with your back comfortably erect.

WHERE ARE YOU?
zhlédnutí 245Před 4 lety
The reason I made this episode is to make you question and to make you doubt something very obvious - Your place in the Universe. So instead of getting hooked to the interesting facts discussed, try to get hooked to the "wonder". This profound wonder is where science meets spirituality.

I want this video in hindi🙏🏻
Great vid. Definitely one of the best introductions to zazen. Explained clearly with a good narration. And I like the analogy of the mind being like a monkey on steroids. That is perfect. People seem to think a goal of meditation is to still the mind, whereas anyone who has meditated knows you cannot still the mind, but rarher, you give it space to still by itself. I like the analogy of trying to clear a muddy glass of water. No action we take will clear the water, only by leaving it alone do we allow the water ito settle itself. Anyway, I'm rambling now, sorry. Just wanted to say.great video, keep up the quality content. Cheers, Gassho, Namaste, Om Shanti , blessings and have a great day.
6 ads in 20 minutes, it ruined the meditation, you should really turn them off or the channel becomes completely useless
Ruined by ads
It's a wonderful video even if I experienced several youtube ads.
Is there any way you could turn off the ads that come up during the video?
Its not in my hands to remove them actually. For small channels CZcams runs ads without the author's consent. 🙏
@@profundus9306 That's too bad. The ads pop up every 5 minutes so it's really distracting. Great meditation though. Thank you for posting
Thank you
where are you Rajat? Are there any new videos of yours in the making?
Not worth watching with advertisements in the middle of it. I'm sorry but I don't recommend this video
Well, that was pleasant and useful until !!!!blasted ad at 8 minutes and thereafter. Really unhelpful.
Eys should be opened or closed , kindly guide
Thank you🙏
I can't believe this doesn't have millions of views. This has been a life saver for me. Thank you so much for making this ❤
Radical acceptance.
thank you for this, my cat just "moved on"; this helped me and him "stay together naturally"; his time came at the same time this meditation ended
This is good. I like the unification of body and mind with the sun, stars, rivers and trees.
This guided goes back to the basics... The very important basics that we are quick to forget. Let everything happen on its own as it's always been and always will.
This was wonderful. Your voice was calming and I like your accent, the music was also lovely. I just wish the advertisement in between wouldn't have cut right through the relaxation. 🙏
Aha !...At last I know how to do Nothing !...Thankyou so much !...
During one meditation I got lost in time n space n I regain consciousness only after two hours. Can you explain this phenomenon?
Such a pity, an excellent meditation disrupted by numerous, inconvenient adverts.
I’ve used this meditation so many times in the last 48 hrs. Feeling so much less stress. Thank you for creating this!
Hello and thank you. So we’re not supposed to count our breaths as most zazen websites say?
Bro, you should be making more videos. This is too good of a knowledge to not grow your channel. Hope all is well 🙏
Very nice introduction and equally good meditation. I agree with the below commenters, your channel should've many more subscribers. Please continue making this content, I see you have stopped for a bit now. Namaste 🙏
Thank you so much -- please make more of these, they are life changing.
The video was good until an ad pop up while I was meditating
good
Thank you for explaining so clearly what Zazen is. I’ve been practicing meditation for nearly a year and I’ve gone all the way from metta to doing nothing. It’s helped me a lot in my daily life and I hope to get deeper into it progressively. It’s hard sometimes when you need to let things go, but I’m finally overcoming aversion to some thoughts. The key is to accept them without doing nothing. Thanks so much again, master!❤
Thank you for this amazing experience you made me discover. Your voice, the music of selection and the true understanding of what you were saying made this meditation a beautiful peace of art. Again, thank you for this. With all my love, some other fellow human.
Are you kidding me? An ad in the middle of the meditation????
It is CZcams dear friend. This channel is not even monetized 🙏
Wonderful job…just a perfect introduction…thank you
This is amazing. So well explained. Thank you
Excellent video on mindfulness. Let the message spread to more and more people. Keep up the good work
Very helpful and well presented.

Hey! Rajat bro please make some more videos . Actually your voice and the expressiveness is soothing and well undrestable for Indians.
Excellent video. Well explained. Keep it up
And you discover two things: how free you are and where your fetters are😉
That's a practice of mine. I will sit down, no reading, I have no t.v., no music, use the bathroom as the need arises, eat, and do that from sunrise to sunset, just sitting with me.
Please make more like this-
