- Some of the topics in the talk:
Every day is a new day.
Removing expectations.
How to Know if this is the Path?
Beginners Mind. The mind of awakening.
Volition needs to be cared for.
The theme for our holiday retreat this year is "The Path is Our Home" and over 300 people gather here at Deer Park Monastery from December 29th to January 2nd, 2023.
Thay Phap Dung, please do not apologize for your stories, your humor, your way of being when you talk, because that's what makes you special and the reason why so many of us enjoy your talks. Please do not change or think that you have to change. I always look forward to your talks, and I always feel warm and smile, especially when you think you are so-called rambling. Please continue to be natural and yourself and don't worry about other people criticizing the way you talk. Thank you so much for continuing to share these videos on CZcams! Really helps people like me who can't get to Deer Park or the other Plum village monasteries.
I could not have found a better way to express my feelings..thank you 🙏
I so agree! ❤
Same here🙏🏽
He’s one of the coolest, most real monks I’ve ever come across.
Yes, I love how you share, Thay Phap Dung!
Brother Pháp Dung always works magic with his teachings. So grateful to hear them.
Long live Br. Phap Dung! He is edgy and expresses a coherent blend of Dharma and dharma
BEAUTIFUL!!! GREAT!!! MARVELOUS THAY PHAP DUNG.Thank you very much. Lotus to you all at the Deer Park Community. LOTS OF HUGS. WONDERFUL MOMENTS FOR THE WHOLE HUMANKIND HONORING TO VENERABLE THAY'S TEACHINGS. EC.
Thank you brother for nourishing us with your dharma talk, for reminding us what is about to wake up and touch the present moment. This is the Path!
Br Phap Dung, I love your talks. I feel like I'm with you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much Thay Phap Dung, for sharing such a wonderful Dharma Talk. I love the way you talk! It's great that you share deep teachings with joy. Learning to you I smile, laugh at the same time got the opportunity to learn in order to improve my life. EC.
It's so wonderful that I asked Thay this very question. And this morning he offers me the answer. 🙏🌺💜
Thank you Br Phap Dung. Your talks are always captivating. Seemingly simple yet packed with wisdom and insights. I am new to the mindfulness practice and can't grasp some topics and was feeling a little frustrated with myself. Then I remembered you said listening to a dharma talk and allow the words of our teacher to touch us and penetrate us like Dharma rain, whether we understand it or not. That immediately comforted and calmed me, allowing me to enjoy the whole talk. Thank you also for sharing your personal life experiences as that makes you more relatable. The story of the bus driver is a wonderful reminder that bodhisattvas can be anywhere in any form.
Thank you Br. Pháp Dung... 🙏
Thank you. Very profound Dharma talk. Wishing you all the best. Lotus to you. Sonja
Thank you for this beautiful talk.
I live in LA but I have a quiet life with my dog. To me, LA is a beautiful place filled with nature so close to heaven. I love Thay Phap Dung yet I hope he wouldn't paint LA as some crazy party town. I like Thay Phap Dung's approach because he speaks to us like he is one of us. Thank you.
Words of wisdom much needed and appreciated. Thank you Thay Phap Dung. Always enjoyable to hear your talks.
Thank you! my heart is full of joy. "This present moment is the path". Dear brother your dharma talk is very lucid and meaningful🙏
Very Powerful Talk! Thank you so so so much. Thay Phap Dung Happy New Year to All.
Listening to you fills my heart with warmth and joy compassion and topped with a little realistic humour…..thank you
Thank you, Brother, for your insightful teaching. 🙏

Thank you so much for this. I really wanted to spend the new year with my Buddhist Group but could not. This is excellent. I absolutely loved your talk Brother PD!

This was a beautiful Dharma Talk and I appreciate your words to bring in the new year with. 🙏
Such nourishing dharma rain. Thank you one and all.
i also like going to people in grocery store that are present. authentic and present are priories now that wernt always. my growth and healing path
happy new year! Nice to see you in this brand new year!!!🥰
Deary Thay Phap Dung: it brings me to tears to hear you are being criticized for who you are and how you deliver Dharma talk; many of traditional Dharma teachings have been told through stories, like the story of the raft and carrying it beyond the shore, the story of Monk helping an attractive lady cross the river and many more. One needs only to listen to the great master Thich N.H to see how often he made the audience laugh and how he told different personal stories. I hope you won't further get criticized for revealing that you were criticized. Isn't it the essence of Buddhism is a non judgmental approach, no right nor wrong way of doing things? Bottom line please don't change and I hope you keep telling your stories your way, there is so much Dharma on those seemingly "non Dharma laughter's". I am a psychiatrist with 25 years of practice yet I learn from you and looking forward to someday meeting you.
Nam Mô Bổn Sư Thích Ca Mâu Ni Phật .
Thanks!❤
I don't understand but the teachings feel right. Good news, I don't have to understand to get the Dharma rain.
you seem happy now!!
Long live impermanence!
