Nicely done. But there’s some incorrect information.
Buddhism is not a religion. There is no conversion to Buddhism. 🙏🏻💐
"Don't be a jerk and you will be a good person" – Siddhartha Gautama probably
Vipassi is not a mythical Buddha. There had been 28 Buddhas in this universe alone. And Vipassi is just one of them.
Historical facts? Where is the historical critique and all sources? This is only a standard narration.
Learning to let go is learning to love
I call Sidartwa Gautama by his name, not the Buddha, cause it was made a religion
He clearly stated that it is not about serving a diety .
In English, he talks about human behaviour and its Causes and how to deal with it
sloppy scholarship. i’m out….
1.) does the study of the teachings of the buddha necessitate adhering to a religion? most evidence suggests not. your entire video’s premise is flawed.
Buddhism is a clever way to live a happy, noble & spiritual life.- Thich Nach Han, Yoda. 👽
Sadly Indian caste system, like Brahmin caste intervened in politics and destroyed Buddhism ☸️ in India after king Ashoka …even today’s 2025 ..that caste system is still strong in India.🇮🇳
🇱🇰☸️🙏
Thank you very much for this video wherein the legend becomes a human. Indeed, Buddhas teaching is based on wisdom of the self, the soul in each of us. Sitting silently, where ever you are.. and the Bodhi tree supports you in meditation.
M A seems to have really strayed from his 'stoic aspirations and originally admirable ethical stance, given his choice to abandon meritorious succession. Being an unaware opiate addict has to have had a role in his horrible choice of Commodus as his successor, and cruel indifference to a religious minority [Christianity] suffering intolerance and persecution. Both calamitous choices caused horrible injuries to many. A besmirched stoic needing more candid scrutiny, not worship.
Beautiful, thank you!
The Buddha was a great philosopher. His message is far superior to that of Christians and Muslims who advocate hatred against all who do not adhere to their corrupt Abrahamic philosophies and evangelize forced indoctrination .
Awesome Video ! Buddha's teachings changed my life ! Thank you !
Buddhism is a farce. When I worked in Taiwan the English language newspapers were full of articles about two different cults of Buddhists having pitched battles in the streets over control of a wealthy monastery. They were using pipes and machetes and several were killed and scores injured. Peace my arse.
Buddha origin was in the ancient island of Ceylon
Ahéhee'
EXCELLENT!
Amazing storytelling, thank you for making this so accessible.
I'm sri lankan buddist☸️🇱🇰 thank for uploading this video
