Find STILLNESS - Be QUIET - Silence isn't EMPTY

Фильм және анимация

How often have you been still? Really still and quiet? Part of our alienation with the world is our inability to stop and just be. We don’t need to do anything, have a purpose, or expect anything from the moment.
So give yourself the space to enjoy moments of stillness - to lean into them, to be nourished by them. Let stillness be a teacher and a friend. It is these moments of silence that open up a closer connection with others. We are able to express ourselves, ask for what we need, and give what we desire to give from the centre of our being.
As Rumi says, “Listen, silence isn’t empty, it is full of the answers.”
Filmed in Colesburg, South Africa.
Featuring Antony Osler.

    I am grateful for this gentle soul sharing his thoughts. I am 62 yrs old now and always thought there was something wrong with me. I was born introverted and physically oversensitive to my environment (hives, stomach issues, etc starting at a very young age). What “normal” people view as “outgoing” (loud, competitive, attention seeking) just feels like aggression to me. Often, I just go somehere and sit in my car (my quiet bubble) to decompress from this loud, high pressure existence. I look forward to retirement as a time when I will finally be able to live a quiet life, and to find a quiet way to be of more service to others.

    So beautiful his way of looking at life. "They say being older is not for sissies. I didn't find life easy when I was young at all. As a small boy I loved more than anything being on my own. There was something anxious and self conscious when I was around people. When I was with a tree or a cat, the world was mine in a slightly different kind of way" I felt so happy reading those lines. That was me. That's exactly how I felt all along, and still do at 76. Loved this gentleman's way of looking at life. So reassuring ! Thank you Green Renaissance for this heart warming story.

    Spoken like a true introvert. About half of the population is like this. The other half seek to make the other half more like them. They push the deep value of friendship. However, as a 78 yo, my family are my close friends. All other friends have fallen away. I often wonder why, but find it a useless pursuit because I can't find the answers. We no longer communicate. I now conclude that friends are like dead skin cells, or hair, that sheds from your body, very naturally and it has little to do with anything you have done. I sometimes miss the old friends, my experiences with them, but those times will never come back. In the end, we have to be comfortable and grateful for the life you have and have made.

You are beautifull, but yr culture and tik tok and yr parents worship pride and selfishness and seperation which leads to all kinds of addiction (sex, porn, sugar, binge eating, scrolling, buying stuff so people will give you a thumbs up or even jealous look because you achieved superficial things like a car, a watch, a dumb phone or sneakers.

    Such a great way to start my morning. There’re so many lesson that resonate with me from this single video. Things I have been slowly learning as I walk through this life. And it’s just nice to hear someone much wiser talk about them. 1. We are one with nature. And there’s just something healing and calming about being with it. Find ways to connect with it. 2. Silence the noises and live this life mindfully, gently,sincerely, and authentically. 3. Feel and embrace all your emotions. This is how you’ll know that you’re truly alive 4. Don’t just believe anything and everything you’re told. Connect with your higher self. Connect with the rest of the planet and find out what more is out there for you. And then decide what is real for YOU!

    I love this, not afraid of being dead, what frightens me is not living fully before I die. This is so important to me as well as I am aging with less time ahead of me than behind. It is the simple things, compassion, connection, and in the stillness, I see so much beauty. Thank you Antony for you thoughts are gifts.

    I think I've listened to this six times and have taken his words into my heart. He has learned to live such a full life. This is exactly how I feel, happy alone and anxious stepping out. Always feeling I need to find a way to fit in, to make a difference in my life. He has described the contentment with just being who you were created to be. Please thank him for sharing his story. Wish I could know more of his story.

    its just imagined cries and suffering though meaning not happening in his real time, present moment. him, living alone, in his immediate environment wheres the cry? when he goes into the city, does he see people crying outside? 'the suffering of the world' is his own introjection. or just a default state of a human when he is all alone. but im not implying that that imagined suffering is null or inconsequential even though we could say it is an echo chamber, voices of others, if he finds meaning to such.

    Another of my all-time favorites. I have already watched it several times and forwarded it to people I care about. It is a gift to them as much as your gift to me to bring this gentleman into my life. He is the kind of person I could sit down with and just take in his genuine heart and soul. Anthony has so many precious one-liners I can't list them all here. And, again, as always your videography and editing took the presentation to another level. I absolutely loved the shot of the cat walking across the top of the wall with the Zen Sky sign in the context of the shot and the feel of the message. I also took into the deepest place of my heart wisdom of not shutting out the dark things happening in the world because in so doing I become "brittle by trying to keep something out." Compassion and empathy is what keeps us more deeply loving and soft. Thanks, GR. My life is better for these videos.

    They are ordinary people, living their daily life. People like Antony surround us all every day. It's about making the time to truly listen to each other, with open hearts and minds. We all have a story to share if we stop and think about it. We usually put name of the person in the write up below the video if you want to check out more on the internet. Best wishes, Justine and Michael.💚

    I really liked his statement of not being scared of being forgotten when he dies. That to me, says he is truly in touch with himself.

    Thank you for another beautiful story. Solitude is beautiful, but so is getting involved in the collective. The South African biologist Dave Pepler speaks about the people of Rwanda, how they collectively got involved in their own suffering and that of others through awakened participation. Solitude invariably involves stepping into the world and reaching beyond the self. Listening with compassion, loving beyond the self, that is truly remarkable.
