1
So I think I was like hardcore Buddhist from 13 to I think it's 18 or 19.
2
So my question is, if I had met you when you were 15 and I had said, what is Buddhism?
3
Can you teach me?
4
What would you have said to me?
5
What do you believe?
6
Oh, I would be so into it. Do it.
7
Let's pretend.
8
I was like, oh, so it's been such a long time.
9
But I would have said, yeah, we are all called to be enlightened.
10
We have someone who's Buddha.
11
His name's Siddhartha.
12
A long time ago, he was a prince, and he lived a very lavish life.
13
But as he left his palace, and he had a family, he had a wife and everything, he saw different stages of life.
14
He saw someone being born.
15
He saw someone getting old.
16
He saw someone getting sick, and he saw someone die.
17
and then that's when he started questioning the meaning of life
18
and the cycle of life and he wanted to escape
19
that suffering so he believed he needed to go seek refuge alone in solitude
20
so he left everything he had money he had prestige he had a family
21
and he left it all to go figure that out
22
and he was sitting in a forest and this is
23
when he started meditating he started um closing himself off to
24
all of the worldly desires like hunger comfort it was kind of like mind over matter
25
right and eventually all these temptations as he was really weak came to him and he was able to
26
conquer it through deep meditation and deep prayer
27
and he understood he doesn't need any of these things
28
and that's something
29
that we can have too we can have inner peace through meditation through the teachings of buddha
30
and i think that's how i would approach someone i thought
31
that sounded pretty sane at the time great to me if i had said to you does god exist
32
what would you have said?
33
I would have said no. I don't know who you're talking about.
34
Oh really?
35
Yeah.
36
Interesting.
37
Um, if I had have said, I like to party, I like, you know, hooking up with my girlfriend.
38
Is that okay?
39
What would you have said?
40
I would have said no. Okay.
41
Yeah.
42
I'd be like, that's, that's not part of the teaching. So yeah.
43
So what, what is the sexual morality in your version of Buddhism?
44
It's the same where you, um, you would have to be committed to your husband and your wife.
45
You know, I didn't really learn anything about divorce.
46
I know affairs were looked down upon.
47
There's no such thing as cheating.
48
What about sex before marriage?
49
Yeah, that wasn't allowed either.
50
It's very traditional, I think, and conservative.
51
See, I think what a lot of Westerners get is like a California hippie interpretation of Buddhism
52
that they want to be true.
53
I don't know.
54
And so I just think the kind of Buddhism I was introduced to when I was 15, I was like looking for something spiritual, but didn't want anything demanded of me was
55
that kind of California Buddhism where all of the don't do that was kind of.
56
So it's cool to know that Buddhists aren't raging hedonists, but it's a joke, but it's also true.
57
So are there, did you meet different Buddhists who had different views of Buddhism?
58
No, I was surrounded by the same mindset, I think.
59
And it was mostly just Vietnamese people.
60
So we pretty much practiced similar things.
61
But it never went deeper than what I learned and what I practiced.
62
If anything, they were learning a lot from me every time I came across another Buddhist.
63
Did you read the works of Buddha, his writings?
64
No, I didn't.
65
It's just my mom, she taught me about Siddhartha, which is the most popular Buddha.
66
Is he the first Buddha?
67
That's what people believe.
68
See, there's no like understanding of the origin of it all.
69
And for Vietnamese Buddhists, we have a lady Buddha that we really look up to.
70
Her name is Phat Guanam, or I think for, I guess, English speakers, they say Guanyin.
71
She looks a lot like Our Lady.
72
I'm glad she doesn't look like the Buddha I imagine.
73
Yeah, no, she has a veil.
74
She just looks serene, except there's different depictions of her.
75
So we actually go to Siddhartha and Gwanyin a lot.
76
And what's the story of the lady?
77
Is there one?
78
So apparently, so yeah, everything I had learned, it wasn't through books.
79
My mom would tell me all these things.
80
And back then I didn't really use YouTube or anything.
81
And I'm a terrible reader.
82
I'll be honest.
83
Like I love reading comic books.
84
I just couldn't read books.
85
I had such a short attention span.
86
But I asked her and she said, yes, Buddhas are people and eventually they had reached that enlightenment
87
so she was a regular woman and she went through many lifetimes many merits,
88
many karma eventually she reached enlightenment and now what she does is she helps people in need, there are a lot of stories where she'll appear on the
89
ocean where someone is abandoned in the middle of the ocean and she'll help them or people who are hungry.
90
She's always depicted with kind of holding like a kind of like a little olive leaf or something.
91
And she has a vase in one hand with water pouring out and she's on top of a lotus.
92
Or sometimes she's depicted with several arms and it's supposed to symbolize that she can do everything and be everywhere at once.
93
Yeah.
94
Is she Vietnamese?
95
She looks pretty Vietnamese from what I grew up with.
96
Yeah.
97
All right.
98
Cool.
99
Okay.
100
When you were meditating and saying these mantras, what was the point?
101
You know, because I think if you would ask a Christian, like, why are you praying?
102
They might say any number of things.
103
They might say, I'm giving adoration to God, or I'm repenting of my sins, or I'm requesting that he grant me certain things.
104
What was the point of your meditation?
105
Yeah, so I was asking that when I was really young, and the Buddhist nuns at the time were telling me,
106
it's just these prayers that we say to Buddha, and they never really expanded more on that so i didn't understand
107
but they said it's more to be in a meditative state i was like hey what's the purpose of
108
that as well they didn't explain that further either to find peace
109
or something they couldn't even explain that it was just
110
because this was a cultural practice this is something
111
that had been happening i think since buddhism was introduced in vietnam
112
so they didn't even question it either and when i had asked questions
113
they were like don't worry about it you just have to do it
114
so I went along with it they never explained all right fair enough
115
but then what was the benefit of it
116
because I could imagine you saying to somebody why do we do this
117
and they go we just do but if you would say to someone
118
but you're you know you're choosing to do it
119
so I would imagine someone might say like I'm afraid of punishment
120
or I'm afraid of becoming a snail in the next life
121
but they almost also might say like this is how I
122
find peace like did you have any physiological response to how you were praying that put you in a calm state or?
123
Yeah, I think it was for that discipline to not be
124
so distracted from everything and to just focus on one thing
125
so it is supposed to grant peace
126
but actually the opposite had happened to me i had absolutely no peace from doing
127
that stuff yeah so why why were you doing it well
128
that that's all i knew right
129
so i was like okay i'm going to follow these rules
130
i'm going to do what they're all doing like eventually i'll
131
get it yeah eventually i was like maybe i'll understand it
132
because my mom
133
and the buddhist nuns like the more you do it the
134
more you will heal the more you will find peace
135
because they were trying to help me with my afflictions with like my mental issues
136
and my emotional state i'll say okay
137
so i'm gonna keep doing it they're like when you're scared pray
138
when you're having a nightmare pray just do it
139
so it became like second nature to me even in my dreams if i had a nightmare I would just start praying.
140
But the more I did it, the more anxious actually became.
141
And I remember throughout all this process, I don't know if I could just suddenly add this in, I was very afraid of the Virgin Mary.
142
My cousin, out of my entire family, they're the only Catholics.
143
And my mom has like 11 or 10 siblings.
144
She has a bunch and only one section is like Catholic.
145
And so when I would visit them, they had Our Lady statues of her everywhere.
146
and I was so scared to go anywhere near her
147
and I would have sleepovers I was like can you cover
148
her I don't I don't want to look at her yeah
149
they said why I just said she's just scary to me
150
I don't know who this lady is she's freaking me out
151
yeah what kind of statues of her were they were they like Fatima
152
or our Lady of Guadalupe I don't remember
153
but I think it was our Lady of Fatima yeah did you ask who is this no I just knew
154
that they called her the Virgin Mary And I don't remember even seeing Jesus in their home They have him, but he just never popped out to me Only she did
155
Yeah So I'm not going to ask you to reenact repeating a mantra That's not what I'm going to do
156
But I am interested So when you would wake up at night
157
and you would start praying Would you just repeat over and over the name of this Buddha?
158
Yes And would you use your breath to do that?
159
Or would you just say it, say it, say it, say it?
160
I would say it out loud, audibly Thank you very much for watching If you enjoyed that clip, you are going to love the full interview.

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण
वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:
| संरचना | वीडियो में |
|---|---|
| Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है | be enlightened · being born · were looked |
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है | have said · it's been |
| Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी | Siddhartha, which is · people who are |
ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण
वक्ता 52 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे I'm, don't, didn't। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।
- “sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: meditation /mɛdɪˈteɪʃn̩/, adoration /ˌæ.dəˈɹeɪ.ʃən/, affliction /əˈflɪk.ʃən/, depiction /dɪˈpɪkʃən/, lavish /ˈlævɪʃ/
- लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: enlightenment /ɪnˈlaɪtənmənt/, adoration /ˌæ.dəˈɹeɪ.ʃən/, meditative /ˈmɛdɪˌteɪtɪv/, physiological /ˌfɪz.i.əˈlɑ.d͡ʒɪ.kəl/, morality /məˈɹælɪti/
हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:
- /v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: lavish /ˈlævɪʃ/, meditative /ˈmɛdɪˌteɪtɪv/, worldly /ˈwɜː(ɹ)ldli/, vase /veɪ̯s/, veil /veɪl/
- /z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: symbolize /ˈsɪmbəlaɪz/, physiological /ˌfɪz.i.əˈlɑ.d͡ʒɪ.kəl/
- शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: scare /skɛɚ/, statue /ˈstæt͡ʃu/, snail /sneɪl/
इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें
- पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
- 0.75× गति से शुरू करें, एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें, और सहज लगने पर सामान्य गति पर लौटें।
- अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर meditation, meditate, mantra जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
