    There's always some freak out there ... who put 'dislike' here? If you are not into deep and profound things, watch Justin Bieber on YT, but don't leave your dirty shoe imprint in this hallowed space ... Ajahn Brahm is a person of real depth, integrity, and lovingkindness ....

      Wow you absolutely missed the point . If his talk had any effect on your mind you would not be calling a person who does not agree with him a freak . Doctor 😂

    yes, indeed, for in essence there is no-one out there ... everything is only a reflection of the inner world.

    Living in the present moment is wise indeed

    I think emptiness is not a philosophy but a state of mind of no attachment.

      +Maruta Michinori +Carrie Densley
      Philosophy is the study of the fundamentals of our reality. Our minds are the key to understanding how emptiness can lead to a new way of looking at your attachments as whats keeping from letting go of pain, suffering, and bliss and joy and fear and hope, and the list goes on. Be content and aware of who you are now, as you can separate yourself from the world in this moment of deep breath and self awareness. Pretend to not care for anything time, love, life, death. All you are is nothing , catch that glimmer of silence shinning in you.

      Maruta Michinori it’s that as well as the understanding that things are empty of independent existence. There is no real you-just a collection of concepts strung together that are often based on conventional definitions not reality 🙏🏼

    Real freedom is being content with what you have . . .

    He deserves a better and nicer backdrop than where he's standing, perhaps a big beautiful redwood tree out in nature would make for a better presence than brick, a steal door and electrical switches . Just an observation =)
