The Four Noble Truths Of Buddhism Explained

Buddhism sees personal liberation through self and not by praying to an outside supreme being. You have to follow a path by yourself and Buddha's philosophy guides you. He can't send you to hell or heaven and it's your mind which carries you to your salvation or destruction. Amazing!

As a Thai Buddhist. Thank you so much for your hardwork that you share Buddha's principles to the world. 🙏

I am much older than you, and have studied for years, but listening to you, I suddenly understand what I haven't understood before. Thank you!

I am a buddhist. I used to learn buddhism as a subject when I was in school(because my country's main religion is buddhism)..that period I didn't pay much attention about the buddha's teachings..just focused on my grades..but feels like I'm learning buddha's teachings more deeper from you..now I'm more interest about buddha's teachings..I'm starting to think about why I didn't try to understand these teachings before.. because of your videos I could open my eyes and see the reality of buddha's teachings..thank you so much❤🙏

The way you present these concepts is really amazing. It made me think about the four noble truths in way I had not considered before. Please continue making videos on these important buddhist concepts.

My greatest gratitude to you.❤. It’s like Buddha’s words are coming through you. May this light shine on all mankind. Peace.

Very highly recommend; Seeker to Seeker has a rare gift for teaching. Rare and profound.

As one who has started on the path in only the last six months, I encourage everyone to simply sit down and be in the moment for a while. It has helped me to see through a number of the lies I took for granted, which made me feel inadequate, angry and depressed. To become Buddhist you don't have to get anointed anywhere, you can be Buddhist right now, by wishing for all beings to be at ease, and trying to uphold the 5 precepts. Remember, the precepts are guidelines, not laws to be damned over when broken.

What a way of presenting buddha's teaching. Though a buddhist by birth, I never went deep. I'm so glad I found your videos. This is second video I'm watching and you made me understand the stuffs I already came across in a profound way. Thank you. Do keep your good work to understand buddha's teaching in more understandable way.

I was seeking The Four Noble Truths and your video pops up. Thank you for your teaching ❤🙏🏼

I have watched two of your videos now. This one on the four noble truths and the one on no self. They are both very well done. I am a Buddhist and find your explanation of the Buddhist teaching to be well researched and well presented, primarily coming from the Theravada school of Buddhism. I’m curious as to why a Christian would spend so much time and effort explaining Buddhism to your followers. Having just stumbled upon your channel I also am one of your followers. I am eager to see your other videos. Your voice and your accent are wonderful! Listening to you my mind and body relax and I can more easily focus on what you are saying. Keep up the good work. I wish you success with this channel.

Very good. I am curious how you can understand so much about Buddhism (I am a Buddhist) and not be blown away by the knowledge/wisdom and not want to enter onto the journey yourself. Very interesting. The Dharma bows me away everyday. ❤

I appreciate your effort to explain the basic concepts of Buddhism to people. Best wishes to All.

Carefully researched & rooted in scripture — well understood, fantastically presented: You are doing such a great job with this channel. Wonderful to watch. Much Mettā.

🙏 I've been learning buddhism for years in pali & sinhalese .so I have a good understanding of these words. Trust me you did an amazing job even if it's difficult to give the exact meaning in English.

"Colors we cannot yet see". I love that.

I’m so grateful to have found this channel. The presentations are clear, precise and not too long. The speaker’s voice is soothing yet commanding.

You are really bllessed to have such a clarity within. And I am so gratefull to participate to this clarity through your videos! 🙏💕

I have suffered to a point that it can’t be described in words. The suffering was of paranoid schizophrenia. I healed myself to around 90 percent. This was enough to leave the hospital and go home to my daughter. My daughter was my reason to fight harder snd straighten myself out. I learned as much as I could about the disease. This helped a great deal. Then I could begin to face reality and in the end mentally stable. Now I feel powerful sometimes. I don’t think that is good. But I also think about the patients a lot. Especially the ones that are in the windowless rooms and scream like they are dying a new death over and over. They only want the suffering to stop and that’s why they must remain in a padded room. I wanted to live though it all. I never thought about suicide. All All my heart was to fight it. Now I want discipline in my life and I’m drawn to Buddhism. I want learn and I appreciate your videos. Are you Christian and Buddhist?

This was so gorgeous and so insightful. I haven't thought about the 4 truths in a long time but this comes at a very timely moment because I'm reading through the works of Rene Girard and his whole philosophy is about desire and how it leads to violence. This led him back to Christianity as the religion that is the anti-scapegoat but really what Girard is looking for and what puzzles him is the way beyond the dynamics of desire and I realise how relevant Buddhism is to him and am surprised he doesn't talk about it at all. He looks at it through christianity or more interestingly in his first book through the lens of stendhal proust and dostoevsky and how those thinkers get to that place beyond mimetic desire. Anyway my mind is excited so I'm connecting my dots here. Just wanted to say that this was so beautifully made and so brilliantly written. And the distinction between attaining nirvana and nirvana-ing is absolutely genius and one that will forever influence the way I talk about it.
