After Enlightenment? Love Deeply & Act Effectively ~ Shinzen Young
Shinzen weaves stories of the Ox herding pictures and various impressive Bodhisatvas - including a Holocaust survivor & activist, and a Marathon Monk that he has known and been influenced by, to get to the true point of this practice.

Here's a fun thing - pretend that every person you see (for a day in the "real world") is enlightened and is pretending that they are not just to mess with you. Fun!
Appreciate having the whole talk available instead of just clips :-)
Perfect. Hope you talk more about “after enlightenment” - it’s empowering to hear this angle
Now, I am beginning to enter the market place to give whatever to others from the love inside, I understand the oxen's story parable and the different stages. I relate to them all. The empty one, eight, brings tears as does the ninth one. Maybe I am at the end of staying on the ox, it is tricky. But I am somewhere between 9 and 10 and I enjoyed hearing that oxen story because it so accurately describes the stages of enlightenment. I began in the psychological mode, working on eliminating my emotional baggage, so didn't really seek until much later...Thanks.
Thanks. Intriguing and it helps to nurture resolve.
It's baaaaaaack! :) :)
I feel like this video greatly broadened my horizons with regard to the world of meditation. The part about Fudo really shocked me.
Stephan is German for Steven….. she was 100% right.. I thought I read somewhere that Shinzen was born Steven. Nikola Geiger was her name. The movie is called the White Rose.. beautiful human

That´s eerie!
Who is loving deeply and acting effectively? No one, because the self does not exist. Actions and thoughts happen. That is it.
Shinzen buddy how do I put this? A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T CARE ABOUT HELPING OTHER PEOPLE. That being said why the heck do I have to translate your stuff into catchy rock and roll songs? WHY ME? It's a lot easier to communicate noself when you assume that people are merely pretending to be clueless. Certainly you'll have a better time. Na-mas-tee.
Anyone heard Shinzen’s first experience of fully seeing the ox? I’d like to hear it if anyone has it.

I know it's 4 years after you asked but nobody answered, he said "Nicola Geiger." Cheers!
Dear Shinzen - have you learned yet how to talk to "schizophrenics" (street-corner ravers)?
you need so many words, man.
when u truly become enlightened u realize most are not worthy of love or help, hence why so many yogi sit in a cave for years lol you become love but the world is still the world.

I disagree , everyone deserves love and help , even those that need it most

the ones that dish out pain the most are the ones that are the most craving for love
