It's amazing how this short video has so much wisdom in it.. To not care about others and just pounding rice for those that need to eat even though they don't like the person and appriciate what he was doing for them is an example of selflessness.. This is just one of many deep hidden messages..

Yes, you understand the real meaning of the story...👍

For those wishing to convey their arrival or progress, worry not about your journey in comparison to anyone else. Enlightenment and true understanding oneself is not defined by any one culture. You just keep doing you the best way you can. Love yourself. Be compassionate for yourself. Have a blessed day.

Just be focused in doing something with dedication and thats meditation

Silence of mind is highest form of prayer and to silence mind is meditation.

Yes. Zen story is about complete freedom from thoughts in mind by engrossing completely into your work as well as all of your common or specific actions (like walking, eating, playing, reading and so on ). That is, all your work and actions become meditation. your individual consciousness becomes one with universal consciousness. The culmination of meditation is Enlightenment.

I truly enjoyed all that was said, & yes when I'm that zoned into your work state, everything I was doing happened, In what seemed to be only a few moments, & when not zoned in to the work seemed to take forever, but since I'm a perfectionist it was always done perfect. I'm a Disabled Master Floor Covering Mechanic, if you walk on it I can install it, but back is inoperable after a failed Back Surgery at L4-L5, & L5-S1 a Laminectomy and Discectomy at both levels put me on wheels for 3 years, I got mad and found a doctor that would help with the 24/7 Explosive Pain. I made myself Walk Again with everything below my Bellybutton either numb & tingling, or Erupting Pain, yet the pain is eternal but I can walk on These Legs for now, never take gabapentin if in this rewired connection's to legs state, it caused my legs to stop working lots, getting up to do anything was insane I would get 2/3 to 3/4 standing and my legs would stop working and as I was falling they would work back to where it let go, I called it the human YOYO effect & it would continue for 10 to 40 Min if I didn't stop trying for 30 min to 50 min, and could last 10 or more hour's I ceased that gabapentin and a week later it stopped.

Some time you need to focus on your mind set thank you godfather to take part of my meditation thinking ❤🤝

We have been taught from birth to believe that the mind is who we are. But in truth the mind is simply a tool you use to do things. When you need to do something, use your mind. But at all other times simply be in the present moment, wherein lies peace. We've spent our whole life doing it wrong. So it generally takes time (and practice) to fix the problem. That is, still the mind,. To gently put the mind aside. Meditation can help. Because it can to teach us what stillness really is. But once you understand stillness you can, as Zen suggests, make your whole life a meditation. There is peace. Identify the peace (the stillness of the present moment) at the center of the swirling maelstrom of your thoughts. Then choose to be the stillness, rather than the thoughts. There is peace.

That's the thing I believe we must learn who we are. Meditation is important in the fact that it helps one to focus . Learning to discipline your mind with how you react to things is so important and everything thought logically can be simplified as you began to learn to focus. Thinking and focusing and listening are important . Talk can come moderately. So itsa learning experience for a person. Going prepared with a clear mind and focused mind can make things better..

Do. It is simple. Go. Then do. Michael Jordan had that playoff game late in his career when he could not miss, not even from deep. He famously shrugged at the bench after draining a three pointer. He was "in the zone," as they say. I am no Jordan, but I always did want to be like Mike. One day in the gym, I hit 18 or 20 threes in a row like I was on autopilot. I used to get like that studying chemistry too, only rarely with mathematics, but often while directed toward geology or physics. I learned to do it playing sports. I set myself aside and simply absorb what is before me. Nobody ever told me that was meditation before, but it does make sense very clearly.

I travel in time and now pass by this.

Mmmm,, I agreed more with the first quotes,,, ( our mind it’s like a mirror on which thousands of desires accumulate constantly.)..

I guess I should post this too because it seems almost everyone else has.

I once had time to really meditate. I literally had years where I worked,ate and meditated. I didn't talk unless needed at work and in the evenings I was alone to reach into myself without TV or radio. I reached a point once that I knew, I started to say I thought, but I knew I had reached the "Big Nothing!" ,that's all I can say to explain it. IT scared me, I felt absolutely alone and when I came back ,I was to afraid to go back that I haven't ever tried to go back. I have a mantra I use to relax, but I don't try to go deep. Some may enjoy and revel in it, but it's nothingness.

And the nothingness/void doesn't GAF about you or your problems or what you can contribute. According to the late Eugene "Seraphim" Rose, you would be better off going away from the void and towards God/All That Is aka the Creator of the Universe. Father Seraphim was a Russian Orthodox monk who built his own monastery in Platina, CA, and translated several spiritual books into English before his untimely death at age 48.

The purpose of the mind to clear it of negative thoughts and to apply it to becime productive. The culmination of meditation is leveraging it for productivity. Surely somebody is sweating the fields to feed these monks. Your reward comes from getting to know your Creator (the source of life) and to fulfill his purpose for your life.

I want to say that... it hurts heavily once you start practicing Silence by mouth and also Silencing the endless thoughts.. The main pain is implementing the above wisdom in the video..its hard, very hard but also mind you the God is with you in your journey of attaining the God itself.. May God bless everyone🙏🙏🙏

I agree Sir, it Always happens when we are doing something which needs attention. Like drafting a reply or making something new. The whole attention is concentrated in the work. We become absent.... Yet, an enlightened one should not laugh at others still looking for the truth! Laughing at someone is contempt.

This person was looking for the Truth. Jesus said “I am the way, the Truth, and the life.” The number one book throughout all of history, the Bible, offers hope, peace, and truth that fills the void every man is desperately looking for. Please take a few hours of your life to investigate the claims of Christ. You WILL find the truth as I have. You don’t have to spend your whole life searching. God can accept you today as you are! He loves you and wants a relationship with you. You will know who you are and why you are here and what your purpose is in this life. Find it in Jesus today.

Life without tears is a desert without a drop of rain.
