Here is Nov 2023….. it’s always very refreshing to hear from Ajahn Brahm about letting go. Profound wisdom. Thank you. ❤

"It is only heavy, when you hold it. When you let go, there is now weight at all." So simple and profound. Thank you.

A little late to the party. This has changed my life. Thank you. I can finally move on after 56 years of creating my own pain.

when I got married and had 2 kids. I expected to stay in love and have the kids dad in their and my life. unfortunately I had to change as he was violent. so I had to let him go by divorce. he decided not to be a dad to his kids to spite me. I married a psychopath. is it so wrong to expect my ex to be a father to his children. but why get married if you are not expecting to stay married. I don't understand. but I realise my kids were better off without their dad but try explaining that to young childrenx

I am so bless that I came across this video. I am not a buddhist but I am so greatful to you. My husband left my for our family doctor of all people...I have been full of hatered and hurt. Listening and really hearing your words has made me let go... i totally just let go. I am greatful that I have no illness in my life but I have been a prisoner to my hate. Words cannot express how your words have inspired me. Thank you. Much love Kimberly

dear Kimberly I have spent 48 years hating my ex husband. then last 2 years hating his 3rd wife as apparently she was there since my 45 yr old son was 3.. and she told him that. it is difficult to let go of anger I was 15 when we met he was 20. he was mine and father to my kids. you don't know how bad it feels to see him with someone else. so I need to find Ajahns speach on letting go of anger. There have been more angers where I wanted people dead. I have lived my life in anger and now want to let it go.x

Whenever I get emotional attacks I revisit this video and I can sleep peacefully. Thank you for this insightful talk.

Brahm is doing a great deed by bringing Theravada Buddhism to the modern World. In Sri Lanka and I guess Thailand too, culture is intertwined with Buddhism because both countries have had it for so long. I find that western students of the Thai forest traditions who have gone onto be Ajahn’s are great teachers for this reason. They teach in a different way. But also their forest tradition keeps it very fundamental. Which I think is also good. Because that’s what the Buddha meant for lay people.

new film trailer you sound harsh. But what you say is partly true. But what should someone do if they don’t understand Sinhala very well and are horrible at learning new languages and this is no fault of their own, did you decide what kind of situation to be born in? Anyway, the deeper I go into Buddhism I find that learning Pali is the way to do it and knowing Sinhalese helps a lot. Also a key difference in Thai forest tradition I like is that they don’t stress too much on abidhamma which Buddha taught to his mother and other heavenly beings. It can get very complex. I find staying away from that for lay people and learning more about paticcasammupada is more helpful for lay people.

This talk has changed my life for the better. At the time of finding this talk, I was often obsessed with finding happiness in places where it cannot be found. This lead to a lot of suffering. In a moment of clarity, I googled "how to let go" and found this talk. Since then, I've experienced that letting go leads to much more happiness and I am gradually learning to be content with the way things are. I think that without this talk I would not have enjoyed my life nearly as much as I do now. I'm extremely thankful for the talks that the BSWA makes available for free online. Thank you!

I almost cried near the end. I think about all of the things I've gotten hung up on and how I have been irritated at the most stupid things. Nothing lasts forever, so be present and enjoy every moment while you are alive. I am happy and grateful to be alive listening to this talk.

I was working in a ghetto corner store, stocking beer in the back room, and thinking about how irritated I was by all the customers, and listening to this talk. And it dawned on me, everyone’s doing their best in life, skillfully or not, just let them be, you won’t be doing this job forever so why not just let go and be happy, geez. And that stuck with me. Oddly enough I had a lot fewer conflicts with rude customers after that too. Probably because my attitude really did changed and they stopped sensing my ill will and reacting to it in kind.

One of the smartest things I ever learned to do is to interrupt my own trail of thought. Whenever I get pessimistic, complain, judge, take something for granted, feel impatient or ripped off etc.. It's just a case of acknowledging it when you can, and over time, you notice it more and more. Once you notice you can remind yourself of why it's no good, and then you can get back to being in an awesome mindset. It's like a 3 second meditational reset button. It's up there with taking responsibility for situations, keeping productive and exploring and experiencing life with others in a social network/community, and having something worthy of dying for.

This really clear my mind. Thank you Ajahn Brahm. 🥰🙏🙏🙏

Buddha words with a sense of humour.

Another Blessing I'm grateful for. I wish peace love and plenty of joy to you and all.

And to you as well my brother =)

I love this man he is just so honest and true he has sacrificed so much to help others

Wow! Most inspiring and emotional 55 minutes on KZread. "Want to be here, and you are free, wherever here happens to be". That stopped me in my tracks......then I cried. That teaching is life changing!!

Yes, Ajahn. Thus i heard that "Only by ignoring the reward can one be truly rewarded". That was said by a senior Monk to his meditators. 🙏🙏🙏

I’m glad I got to see Ajahn walking through a train station, I didn’t speak to him as he was busy but it was great to see him in real life.

This talk made me apologize to someone very dear to me. All we have is the Present, and what "a gift"!

Wow.. have been worrying about the future, stuck in past for months. Needed to hear the right things.. I feel so light now. Thanks.

My Western mind saw repeatedly the fact about grief among Thai. I saw it directly again and again. I live here.

May all beings be well & happy🙏😇💫Namo Buddhaya 🙏🪷🪷🪷🙏Namo venerable thero🙏🪷🪷🪷🙏

" Why Seek for Revenge? Because you know Karma will get the bastards anyway. " - Ajahn Brahm This sparked something in my brain. Thank you for that.

What a great teacher :-) I just discovered Ajahn Brahm today :-) so grateful, so grateful :-)

The human brain is wired to not to want to let go - it replays things on a loop - the hurts play out so we have to learn to say STOP IT.Letting go can be done but it takes effort every day to renew your mind and let go.You can decide to let things go but the things you thought you let go return on the loop again.Its an ongoing process.EFT helped me a lot tapping - plenty of videos on here that you can learn from and tap away what you want to let go.It rewires the brain.

Respect and admirations for the golden lessons here. Buddhism is great. The way to go. Say no to paedophilia, rape culture, women beating and deception. Buddhism rockssz!!!

Love your teaching of letting go. It warmed my heart. Life can be so easy and fun! Just let it go!

I love this philosophy ! Ajhan brahm is so wise and compassionate!

I am from Malaysia, always enjoy your talks and teaching , jokes and life examples that are easy to understand. Teflon mind to not let anything stick in our mind

So wise. Thank you. The reason people listen to you is because you are sincere

This talk continues to change my life and so many lives around me

I agree with him every 10 seconds Repeatedly say that word (agree) for the whole video 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Your the best Ajahn Brahm

日本語字幕を付けていただいた方、ありがとうございます。こんなにたくさん訳すのは大変な作業だったと思います。わかりやすいです。何度もみたい動画になりました。

I'm a Buddhism in from Bangladesh hill tracks Marma indigenous peoples. Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu Name Buddha🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️

I keep listening to this talk when ever I feel like I've kept holding on to things for too long and it has helped quite a lot over the years. Thank you for the amazing talk. May you be blessed by the holy tripple Gems! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I don't think I can add much to the 680 comments, following more than 900,000 views, for a 55 minute talk by an Australian monk. I live in Perth, Western Australia, and that's why we love Ajahn Brahm [and put up with hearing his stupid jokes for the 107th time]. ;-))

Yes, He was born, educated and graduated in physics in England! After that He went to Thailand to study Buddhism and became a Monk there.

My favorite part: "Don't let knowledge stand in the way of truth" !! And elucidation with that restaurant menu example was perfect !! :) :)

I‘m 12 years late to the party, but I feel great comfort in your voice and your words. Thank you. May you go in peace, my Brother :)

The reason he mentioned.. being happy for the sake of people around you.. nice one ..thanks

I finally found a clear path out. Thank you to each and everyone involved in this talk being posted here!

This is the most epic talk I've seen so far by him. I am favoriting this!

You ❤ stay healthy as well

I like how he addresses letting go of happy moments as well as bad ones. We hear "let go of the past" all the time but usually only think of letting go of bad memories. Letting go of good memories can be just as important because otherwise we will never be able to live fully in the present.

Thank you, Ajahn Brahm, for sharing your personal understanding of the Buddha's Dharma. I watch your talks on a daily basis and have done so for a couple years now. You are the closest thing I've had to a teacher outside of my own personal experiences and I just can't thank you enough for shining light on so many different subjects. I look forward to the day that I have the opportunity to thank you in person. Until then, may you continue to know the peace and compassion that make you so wise . You are loved at the fullest. Thank You

Thank you so much Ajahn. So grateful to you for showing me the right path to walk again during my difficult times.

Thank you. I needed this inspiration.

Anyone in 2021? I've heard this few years ago.. And here again in 2021

I wish to be a Buddhist monk in my next life. In this life I am born-Muslim. Thank you.

Redsunshine 33 :You can not convert into Buddhism neither you can embrace Buddhism like what people say about other religion. " Buddhism is not optimistic. it's not pessimistic but it is realistic. you have to realise it by you self. only you can help and no one can.

Woke up early from a nightmare! Picked up my cell, & got this notification. It's meant for me to hear. Thank you, Universe!

I've been watching videos on the four noble truths the noble eightfold path over the last couple of weeks and am letting go of past, future and concerns more and more... Evening meditations are helping with the letting go... This is the best teaching I've seen and resonated with me on so many levels... Will be watching this again I'm sure along with more from this amazing man... Thank you for sharing your wisdom 😊

Such a loving message with some very hateful comments.. Hateful comments I THROW YOU OUT! Boom! Now there is peace within..
