Points I've learned from this video: 1.) Start slow, much like how old cow pees, haha. 2.) Not every meditation is the same. Embrace it. 3.) Practice small as well, like drops of water falling into big container. In the end, it'll accumulate. 4.) Formal practice of meditation: plan it in your day; 10 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. 5.) Informal practice of meditation: meditate anywhere as you go on with your day. 6.) Let go of expectation of what sort of meditation you'll have. That expectation itself might be problem and lead to you to stop meditating. 7.) "I will try my best to meditate". Use this approach when you do meditation. 8.) "It's okay if my meditation is not good. It's about the practice, not the result." 9.) Have balance: trying your best, but also not too lose in the practice. 10.) Meditation is impermanent. It'll fluctuate. 11.) In the end, it'll be something big, steady, and endless. But until that, we must practice to get there. 12.) Progress of meditation sometimes cannot be felt immediately. But you'll see progress. 13.) It's OK to feel like you haven't improved, though. 14.) Don't expect too much. 15.) Do it bit by bit. 16.) Do it formally and informally. 17.) Don't fixate your mind on the experience. 18.) Step by step, just do your best to meditate.

El lobo I feel you mate. I also suffer from OCD, tho I'm quite happy now, because I've had harder times with it. I've tried to meditate, but stopped due to high expectations and inconsistency. Starting again. Meditation will help you observe the intrusive thoughts and gain more control. Don't worry - you are not alone. P.S. Check out Sam Harris on meditation.

Well done to you sir, keep up the good fight .om ☺🙏✌📿🌼

So wise, gentle and funny. He takes the STRESS out of meditating. 😇 Peace be with you.

The most appreciable aspect of the monk's speeches is the simplicity,clarity and understandability put together

This man is such a treasure, hes one of the least flashy and esoteric spiritual teachers, very practical methods and simple way of explaining them. Thank you, much love!

He's the most no nonsense teacher on KZread. Love his way of explaining, always crisp and to the point ☺️

Re meditation on regular basis ... The 2 minutes you do is more beneficial than the 20 minutes you don’t. Bit by bit, as Rinpoche advises.

To me the most important point is that the "meditation experience is impermanent' - your next experience is your next - the previous experience is gone - in the past - be in the present.

I dreamt of him last night in my sleep. He was standing, looking at me smiling happily, luminous. I saw him on the cover of the book in the bookstore, but I never had the chance to study what he taught. Now is the time. He is kind and funny. I will watch him more on youtube.

Whoever is reading this now, remember: You are the light! You are unique and worth it! You are blessed to be in your body and experience all that is! Blessings to all beings! Love and Light!

drip drip drip fills bucket. don't grasp with high expectations. oak grows from little acorns. step by step. enjoy the experience, don't worry about the result. thank you once again. i do feel better with this video.

I am deeply grateful for these videos! Please keep up the good work. It is a real joy to listen to his compassionate wisdom.

Thank you. For everybody who starts meditating these videos are very important. Stay focused on the practice of meditation not the goal you want to reach with meditation (i want to be more relaxed, i want to be enlightened etc. etc.). After a while you notice you don't need a goal anymore, you just meditate.

This is the absolute epithet of a 'feel good video', if ever I saw one! With one of the most 'human' people you can find on the Internet. Sic dixi

Thank you . I use "Temple Sounds" KZread channel with singing bowls to help me start small and work my way up to longer videos, eventually using no videos

Let go of expectation . Try my best ~.~ This is so nice.

duration is human constraint imposed by our ego. Don't fall for that trap. Instead start to drop narratives in your head about who you think you are and see who you actually are, don't follow any guru (be completely free in your quest for true self awareness) and be present regardless of location or situation. Meditation in its pure form.

Thank you for your dedication to keep releasing more teachings Mingyur and everyone involved!

Mingyur has brought me happiness since I have ever found him, it's just unexplainable, his voice calms me the best when I listened to him with my eyes closed. Such a bliss, Mingyur my happy pill

Every night I listen to sleep mediation videos. I doesn't feel sufficient but I feel more patient than I was before and much more mindful than I was.

this helps sooo much! that was my problem. I was expecting too much and would get discouraged. I can do this! step by step! thanks for this!

Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.

If you are having trouble maintaining your study at the university or college, transpolate these same concepts to meditate on the study, practice the study, little by little, and at some point the container will be full of water, or knowledge.

This somehow remind me not to have expectations rather I should have enjoyed the process itself going ...thank you so much, sending gratitude from Myanmar

I think humanity is surfing collectively into challenging times in the next months. So I feel the Buddhist community is wisely preparing us to letting go..... 😊👍Thank you and lovely greetings from Germany 🌻

I was diagnosed very early on as a child with Autism (asbergers syndrome), OCD, ADHD and a registered anxiety disorder. I’m 31 but feel Im still a child in my head, I lost my childhood through anxiety and overthinking 24/7. I’ve never felt ‘normal’, never felt apart of anything and never feel like I fit in anywhere. My mind and thoughts have dominated my life. Mutating with every day and intrusive thoughts on a level which almost cost me my life mid 20’s and unfortunately last year. I have nothing but negative memories because I’m in a constant state of panic and I can’t stop my mind. I’m riddled with guilt as I have a mother which words cannot explain the love and support she has given me throughout, including my other siblings all while going through absolute hell herself, she lost her brother at the Hilsborough disaster, her dad died not long after and 20 years of my very ill dad (insane OCD and Autism). Our childhood wasn’t normal by any means but she stuck through and helped us all. My dad is somewhat a different man now and we stay in contact through the respect I have for myself. He is in health and 60. My mum was diagnosed with a brain disorder 5 years ago and fights through another level of pure hell, she has not long turned 59.. I started Meditation 2 weeks ago and I honestly think it’s helping, I can sleep without anxiety attacks just now and the crippling fear of being alone forever haunts me not as much. I’m not religious but I pray I get through this. Thank you.

As someone who struggled with building a daily practice for a decade, YES! This is how I did it, and this is the guidance I offer anyone who asks me about meditation.

Universe knows everything. What a right time to be able to get through your videos. I was struggling to find proper meditation video's so that I can be consistent with it and Universe showed me your video. Blessed 😇💜🙏💫

Thanks. It has been bothering me for so long that I could never meditate out of habit. I would be dedicated for a week, then stop for months. But just recently I got inspired by a post on Reddit about the NonZeroDay policy: it doesn't matter for how long you do it, as long as you do it daily, even if it's just for a few minutes. I apply this to my desire to meditate more frequently and I think your video is a great confirmation.

Non Zero Day. I like that. I have several chronic pain conditions. Not a day goes by that I am not in some level of pain. I also have depression and anxiety because of the pain. I started meditating in the spring and I found that it lifted my spirits. It can’t stop my pain, but meditating made my pain easier to cope with. I did it daily for almost 3 months. Then I went through a period of such severe pain it made it difficult for me to meditate. I kept trying but couldn’t get thru it because I was suffering. I even tried meditating while lying down. I found that distracting. I finally stopped after about a week of trying and being unable to get into it anymore. That was in July. It’s December now and I never started again. I wanted to but never feel well enough. My back has become progressively worse. My doctor put me on a new medication and I improved greatly! I felt like I finally got my life back and I enjoyed myself like I haven’t in many years. All of a sudden, after almost 3 weeks, the medication stopped working! And I’ve been in a severe depression ever since. My doctor does not know why the meds stopped working. And most recently my spine has gotten so bad, I can’t do much so I just stay in bed. I think meditating could help again, but I feel so defeated by everything that’s happened to me this year, I have no desire to even try again. I think if I can get a few days of meditation started, I probably might want to keep going. It’s the getting started part that is hard. Also, I was never able to sit in meditation position properly because of pain. I did the best I could. Now I can’t sit in any position that doesn’t hurt. I still listen to these videos every night before I go to sleep. I hope one day they will help me start again. Thank you, Rinpoche. I am still here learning from you and that’s good. Namaste. 🙏🏼

I am really grateful😊.. can go in meditation just by listening this magical spiritual voice Thanks Namaste Dhanyawaad

Guru ji ko prnaam🙏

You have taught me much over the past 2 years. Thank you for your wisdom, insight and willingness to share them will all.

So much love

Thanks very much 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Rinpoche😊

Grateful for clarity and friendliness🌱🙏🏼

It's always a pleasure to listen to someone who thinks about every word. Most do not.

You can't tell you how grateful I am for your Love and instruction, Revered Sir.

Cant deny the practice changed and saved me 🙏♥️🧘🏻‍♀️

After watching his teachings, can’t watch anyone else, His teachings are so positive and uplifting and he is able to keep me focused on what he is saying

Thank you.

I like how this guy gives you rationalization and concepts rather than philosophies that don't help.

thank you so much, it's like a metaphor too, i can apply this not only to meditation only.

Thanks, 🙏

yes ! good advice ! i do meditation every day and some days is not so good with many thoughts who makes me stop meditation earlier because thoughts makes me tired to stand by continue meditation ... so sometimes i quit continue trying ... on the other side of my mind i say that maditation is parts like when the pick up touch the disk i meditate and when is not then not so all the music is parts and not all continue ...

ty very much!

RIGHT NOW i AM GOING THROUGH HARD TIMES AND i HAD WATCHED THIS VIDEO BEFORE BUT STILL i CAN NOT STOP MY LAUGHTER EACH TIME I WATCH THIS. THANK YOU GURU_JI.

It's always drilled into us to keep gong and set a good regimen otherwise the bodily centered mindstream won't let us make too much progress. I found the practices at Drukama tradition to be very beneficial this way.

Tashi Deleq. You are from Bhutan! I loved the experience when I went inside Tiger's nest.

thanku..u r simply great. .

Thanks for the advice. I think we expect too much from meditation due to its hype. I love the idea that progress is step by step
