    Think of it this way: You bought a car 20 years ago. Over the years, you replaced every single part on the car until none of the original parts are present. You still have a car. It might even look the same. However, the truth is, you now have a completely different car. Our bodies go through this process naturally. You are, quite literally, a different person than you were 20 years ago (if you're at least that old). There is no permanent self.

      Why is it necessary to claim that there is no permanent self if there is indeed no permanent self?

    There is one sentence that encompasses this video in one. "There is no permanent unchanging self." All the answers to this question are right there.
    And thank you for clearing up something that is always lost in translation in western thoughts of buddhism.

      @ChillAndPeaceful Před 2 měsíci

      There's no self
      Because all organisms are being reborn because of the mind desire that create manifestation to the universe
      We are in simulation of "self"
      There's no "me""I""mine""I'm"
      Only hormones, 6 senses, chemical reactions to the brain, and the mind nature is greedy for pleasant pleasure to the 6 senses that is why people reproducing to suffer more

      ​​@@sifatibnmorshed514
      The manifested universe is an infinite succession of interdependent phenomena which form a whole without beginning nor end, this is in a perpetual movement of transformations and mutations. What we define as “I” or “me” is a being individuated during its experience, but the Buddha goes further in the teaching on the fact of individuality to explain the traps of the ego.

    • @Rockman-qo7zy

      ​​@@sifatibnmorshed514 there is something....there can't be nothing at all.
      Yes , there is something but that something is very deep hard to see and hard to understand, peaceful and sublime, unattainable by mere reasoning, subtle, to be experienced by the wise. But this generation delights in attachment, takes delight in attachment, rejoices in attachment. It is hard for such a generation to see this truth, namely, specific conditionality, dependent origination. And it is hard to see this truth, namely, the stilling of all formations, the relinquishing of all acquisitions, the destruction of craving, dispassion, cessation, Nibbāna.

      @@sifatibnmorshed514 It's an illusion. A chair is only a chair because a very specific assembly of atoms organize themselves in a certain way. In reality, there is no chair, it's just something the mind makes up because it finds it useful to point to things and call it names. Likewise, what we call the 'self' is nothing more than a specific assembly of memories, sensations, mindstates.

  • @musicfuhrer
    @musicfuhrer Před 2 měsíci +12

    I was schooled as a Christian and still appreciate being taught the teachings of Jesus Christ. However, when I was about 12 years of age I suddenly felt an affinty with the Buddha. Despite being born in a rich nation, and having a free education, and no hunger or war in my life. Even at 12 years of age, I could see that all attachment was eventually going to lead to pain. People you love either die or leave you. So, for decades I just lived in the moment as much as possible. Now in my fifties I found I am attached to somebody. I care so much for this person, but I am also depressed because I am attached and I know they will die, or I will die, or they will leave me. I think in the modern world, we have all forgotten how important wider relationships are, as we have been sold a lie about pairing off. In fact, we should be living in communes, families and tribes and sharing love and attachment so that the grief of loss is never so horrific.

    Great work generally on the channel. First time i take issue with the answer. The language-based "I" does not exist, it's just a series of firmly-held thoughts. Our bodies do exist but are not distinct from our surroundings, like a wave is not distinct from its ocean. The distinction is created by our thoughts.

  • @panaduresarananda6455

    I appreciate very much your efforts Sir,to spread the teachings of BUDDHA to others , who believe in an almighty GOD . Buddhism doesn't reject GODS. Gods too are Living Beings who are subject to Rebirth,because they havn't realized the true nature of Existence and its Cessation .
