Meditation So I would like to discuss about meditation.
2
But first of all, I'd like to ask you a very simple question.
3
Can you see my hand?
4
Yes, raise your hand.
5
OK, can you hear me?
6
Yes?
7
Great.
8
That is meditation. So finish.
9
My tattoo is finished.
10
Of course, I'm just kidding.
11
But in a way, that is true.
12
Why?
13
What we call the essence of meditation is awareness.
14
And what is awareness knows what you're thinking, feeling, doing, seeing, hearing.
15
That's all.
16
So actually, meditation is very easy.
17
But many people found it difficult.
18
Why?
19
There are true misunderstandings about meditation.
20
So the first is, many people think meditation means think of nothing.
21
Stop thinking.
22
Concentration.
23
I'm meditating.
24
Keep quiet.
25
So the more when you try to stop thinking, What happens?
26
You will think more.
27
So we will do a small experiment, OK?
28
Now, please don't think about pizza.
29
No pizza?
30
No pizza?
31
What happened?
32
Did you think about pizza or ...
33
No?
34
Yes, raise your hand.
35
I know.
36
So, actually, we don't need to stop thinking.
37
We just need to connect with awareness.
38
And another misunderstanding about meditation is what we call bleasing out,
39
looking for peace, calm, joy, relax.
40
The more you feel relaxed,
41
then peace, calm, joy, relax, and run away.
42
So let me share you my own experience.
43
When I was young, I had panic attacks.
44
Although I was born in the right middle of the Himalayan mountain,
45
the area, the village, wonderful,
46
but panic followed me as like shadow.
47
And I have so much fear for strangers.
48
I cannot go out and meet people.
49
And a lot of storms in the Himalaya mountains, thunderstorms, snowstorms.
50
These storms drive me crazy.
51
And when I was nine years old,
52
I asked my father to teach me meditation.
53
Luckily, he was a great meditation teacher.
54
And the first thing, what he said is,
55
don't try to fight with panic.
56
Don't try to get rid of panic.
57
And actually, he said, you don't have to.
58
Why?
59
Awareness is like sky in the mountain,
60
and the panic is like storm in the mountain, like clouds.
61
And no matter how strong storm is,
62
it doesn't change the nature of the sky.
63
So sky is always present, pure, calm.
64
Similarly, our fundamental quality of mind,
65
awareness, is always present, pure, calm.
66
But the problem is we don't know how to connect with awareness.
67
What we see, only thought, emotion, that's all.
68
So he said there are three steps of practice to connect with awareness.
69
The first one, we have to use an object,
70
support, to connect with awareness.
71
So this is one of my first meditation techniques,
72
what I learned from my father.
73
So you can join and you can relax your muscles in your body.
74
If you cannot relax, also OK, it's allowed.
75
And close your eyes, and please listen to sound.
76
And when you hear the sound through ear and mind together, that is the meditation.
77
And let pane come and go,
78
let pizza come and go.
79
And maybe two pizzas, three pizzas, ten pizzas.
80
As long as you remember the sound, you can have pizza.
81
Okay, how was it?
82
Did you hear the sound?
83
Yes, raise your hand.
84
Great.
85
That is the meditation.
86
Very easy.
87
Just hear, that's all.
88
You don't have to do anything.
89
So a pene comes, let pene come and go,
90
don't care, just listen to sound.
91
Monkey mind comes, blah, blah,
92
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
93
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
94
Let it come and go, just listen to sound. So I did that.
95
But I have a big problem.
96
The problem is lazy.
97
I'm a lazy boy.
98
I love the idea of meditation,
99
but I don't like the practice of meditation.
100
So on and off like that for five years,
101
when I was 13 years old,
102
in India, there's traditional three-year retreat going to start.
103
I thought I should join this because good for my laziness.
104
And I joined.
105
The first month, wonderful, not lazy.
106
Second month, lazy comeback.
107
Now what happened, my lazy and my panic,
108
they too become good friends.
109
The life in the retreat became disaster.
110
And I thought I should leave.
111
But I feel embarrassed to leave because I told all my childhood friends that I can do the retreat, you know.
112
I don't want to lose my face.
113
But if I stay, almost three years to go,
114
then I thought, what should I do?
115
In the end, I decided to learn how to live with panic.
116
So now we have this second step, what we call ...
117
Actually, we can meditate everywhere, anytime, with anything.
118
So you can meditate with a panic.
119
How do you do that?
120
Just like listen to sound,
121
when you listen to sound,
122
sound becomes support for your meditation.
123
Now you can watch panic.
124
If you see the panic, great.
125
What we call, when you see the river,
126
you're out of the river.
127
When you see the mountain,
128
you're out of the mountain.
129
So now awareness becomes more than panic,
130
more than depression, stress, monkey mind, whatever.
131
Let them come, let them go.
132
So that is the first benefit.
133
And second benefit, what we call wisdom comes.
134
So when you look at the panic,
135
panic is not solid stone anymore.
136
Panic becomes pieces.
137
Sensation here, frightened image, voice, background belief.
138
And if you take one of these away, you cannot find panic.
139
So what I call panic becomes like shaving foam,
140
looks like a piece of rock,
141
but inside full of bubbles.
142
Then three, what I call this is acceptance, like self-kind, self-love, self-compassion.
143
You let panic come and go,
144
that's really acceptance, isn't it?
145
So three in one, awareness, love and compassion, wisdom.
146
Sometimes what I call buy one, get two free.
147
Big deal, right?
148
And all this because of panic.
149
So now panic becomes your teacher, your best friend.
150
So I did this practice,
151
and in the end, me and my panic become very good friends.
152
And a few weeks later, panic is gone.
153
I miss my friend.
154
And I finished my retreat.
155
My retreat went very well.
156
And after that, I was very eager to share this wonderful technique to the world.
157
So I taught meditation in many places,
158
wrote a few books, became a bestseller,
159
and then students, and became abbot of a few monasteries.
160
And what happened?
161
A kind of new ego emerged within me.
162
I thought, oh, I have to watch out this.
163
Then I decided to do something very special,
164
what we call wandering retreat,
165
meaning you left everything behind,
166
go on the street with nothing.
167
So I decided to do that in 2011.
168
I left my monastery, my student,
169
my wonderful cozy bed, everything,
170
and go on the street with only a few thousand Indian rupees.
171
And that finished within a few weeks.
172
that I have to bake food.
173
And I got food poisoning.
174
Vomiting, diarrhea, I'm alone on the street.
175
Now I'm going to die.
176
Then I thought, what should I do?
177
So now we have the third step,
178
what we call open awareness meditation.
179
Awareness be with itself.
180
Sky be with itself.
181
Now no need to have support.
182
Just be awareness itself.
183
So I did that practice.
184
Then what happened?
185
My body became decaying.
186
I cannot see, I cannot hear.
187
But my mind became so present, beyond, free.
188
And I was in that state for a few hours.
189
Luckily, I didn't die.
190
I come back.
191
So when I come back,
192
the street becomes like my home.
193
When I look at the tree,
194
the tree becomes like a tree of love.
195
and wind blows to my face, become joyful experience.
196
And the rest of my retreat went very well.
197
I learned a lot from my retreat.
198
So I like to share this open awareness meditation,
199
but it is very difficult to explain.
200
But I want to do something drama.
201
And this is what I learned from my father.
202
So what we call this mala is the crazy monkey mind,
203
bala bala bala yara yara.
204
And the open awareness meditation means you don't have to do anything.
205
Just be.
206
That's all.
207
And you don't need to meditate the sense of presence,
208
being, but not lost. Be free, be present.
209
Thank you very much.

この動画で話す練習をする理由
この動画では、著名な僧侶であるYongey Mingyur Rinpocheが瞑想についての見解を述べています。彼は日常生活の中での意識の重要性を強調し、話し言葉としての英語学習に豊かな文脈を提供しています。英語シャドーイングを通じて、リスニングスキルとスピーキング能力を同時に向上させることができるため、非常に効果的です。また、自然なリズムやイントネーションを学ぶことができ、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つでしょう。自分の発音を録音して確認することで、実際の会話で使われる表現を身につけることができるのです。
文法と表現の文脈における分析
Rinpocheのスピーチには、英語学習者にとって非常に有用な表現や文法構造が含まれています。以下にいくつかの重要な構造を紹介します：
- 「I would like to discuss...」 - 自分の意見を表現する際に使えるフレーズで、フォーマルな場面にも適しています。
- 「What is awareness?」 - 質問形式で意識を引きつける方法です。この形を模倣することで対話を盛り上げることができます。
- 「Don’t try to...」 - 否定形を用いてアドバイスをする際に非常に使われる構造です。これを使うことで、自分の見解を明確に伝えることができます。
- 「Actually, we don’t need to...」 - 自分の意見や主張を発展させるために使えるフレーズです。
一般的な発音のトラップ
Rinpocheのスピーチでは、いくつかの発音のトラップが見られます。特に注意すべき単語やアクセントは以下の通りです：
- 「meditation」 - 発音に注意が必要で、特に「テ」音を明確にすることが重要です。
- 「awareness」 - スラングなどに惑わされず、はっきりとした音で話すことを心がけましょう。
- 「panic」 - 正確な発音は非常に重要で、母音音がはっきりと聞こえるようにしましょう。
これらのポイントを意識しながら英語スピーキング練習を行うことで、自然な英語のリズムやフローを身につけることができ、shadow speechの技術を磨く助けとなるでしょう。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
