Definitely moral conduct/Virtue. Being a good and kind person. If you have that, then the other Deeds will follow. 😊

For me it is always being good to my mum and keeping our relationship golden. I remind myself everyday one day she will be gone, and I think of death, so I try my best to enjoy every single day with my mom. Asking her out for coffee, or cooking together, or talking about life for hours and hours, even debating or arguing is a part of our relationship. I want to soak up every single word or story she tells me. Being good to my parents is a big part of earning merit for me. Other ppl come and go but they are always there. Thanks for great videos, and your wisdom, peace from Croatia.

Respect or reverence. I think this is important not only for others, but for our elders. I try to honor my parents by helping them with chores around the house and to take care of them, not wanting them to be in a nursing home or assisted living facility.

2,4,5 resonates with me. I appreciate the analogy of salt and water. There's nothing we can do with the past because what's done is done. However, we should focus on making things right in days or years ahead while time is on our side. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Nick 👌🏻

I like to think that doing good deeds aren't "merits" but our souls simply "breathing" in order to live. The more good you do, the more you truly breathe.

My man, thank you for what you are doing. I am a broken man at the moment my wife of 27 years has left me. And although I’ve never physically beat her or my children I understand that my very violent outbursts have run its course with her and my family. For many many many many years I’ve longed to find self love and peace within my head and my heart and never understood or knew how to even start. I’ve searched through Books and a lot of KZread channels and for some reason your channel speaks out to me the most. Although I have no interest in becoming a Buddhist monk I will say that listening to your words make a lot of sense to me and have actually helped me thus far. I’m not angry all the time anymore I don’t wanna yank people out of their cars and beat them up anymore, I’m starting to see the beauty in my surroundings and even though I’ve always loved nature and I’ve done good deeds in my time I’m starting to see things a lot differently now. Thank you so much and I wish nothing but a happy life for you

That was so powerful… I too had a gut-wrenching break-up years ago. I kept an extremely busy schedule, doing as many activities as I could and exercising until I was emotionally and physically exhausted, but nothing worked. I was desperate to stop my pain. I realized I had to just suck it up and accept I was going to suffer for a time, so I started doing charity work, like working at a soup kitchen to feed homeless people. I found joy in doing for others and it helped me not think of my own situation. I wish I had this video many years ago, it would have given me more clarity of my situation. Thank you so much for sharing.

The amount of merit you generate is vast compared to my own. I just wish I was a better student. My practice is to distill down these teaching into their essential components. I also try to live the Buddha’s teachings by making my daily life my spiritual life. The purpose of spirituality is not to make ones life easy and comfort. I must learn to love the difficult emotions that come from change. I must make friends with myself first. Maybe one day I will be able to call you a friend, but that is not today. You carry such a heavy burden. And yet you think of this burden as a gift. It truly is a gift. This gift brings me so much joy. I hope by sharing this I am honoring our friendship such as it is.

Thank you Venerable Nick. Respect is what resonates with me most. Not just towards elders but towards all of life, everything that co exists here with us. I have realised that respect goes far beyond politeness. It means to welcome everyone everything just as they show up in your life. Without judgement, or criticism or a sense of being threatened in some way. It means being able to root one’s action in some different place .. I’m not clear as to where or what that is. All I know is that from getting a sense of the importance of this, to translating it into sustained action seems like a long uncoverable distance. Most of the time I just react. And there doesn’t seem to be enough motivation to do all the grounding practices like meditation. So end result … Struggling, drifting, struggling, drifting.

That's really true by doing good deeds, we transmit and receive positive high energy which ultimately fulfill us from inside

Thank you so much Nick for your videos. I'm truly blessed to have found you at a time in my life when I felt lost. Your wisdom and peaceful manner have impacted me greatly. I bought your book and did the Buddhist cleanse I can't express enough how grateful I am to you for sharing with us all. You are a special light in my day. I practice meditation and chanting daily. I have a gratitude journal that I write in daily, I do acts of kindness and follow the 8 precepts. I see a big difference in my life. Things are not perfect but that's ok! Again thank you from the bottom of my grateful heart❤ Renette
