ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Stop Comparing Your Life to Others and Find Peace Within | Buddhist Wisdom for Perfect Life

imagine you're having a rough day and you're scrolling through social media

and you see these nice pictures people are celebrating their life having the best days in their life

celebrating and becoming happy when you see these pictures what do you feel inside

sometimes we feel even more stressed and we feel like there's no value in our life

One of the biggest enemies of our happiness is comparing our life with others' lives.

There is some sort of jealousy and envy that builds up in our life, in our mind.

That is why becoming envious and jealousy and comparing our lives to others is one of the biggest enemies of our happiness.

To overcome this, the Buddha introduced a special practice and that is called Mudita.

Mudita means appreciative joyfulness.

Always remember, when we compare our lives to others and when you build up that jealousy and envy within yourself,

it is not going to help in your success, in your life.

Sometimes, like we stop in a certain place.

we hold on to one emotion and we stay in that envy and jealousy and thinking about other people's lives

without making our life successful

without focusing on our life

so the Buddha said when you see these successful people in the society

when people around you living the best days in their life and your life is not having such experience

always look up to them and think and wish the happiness of them

okay

that is called appreciative joyfulness wish the happiness of beings around

you even though you are going through a tough time

when we see successful people we should not be jealous at

them it is not going to help us what we have

to do we have to wish the success on them when you see someone is having the best days in their life, think of him and say,

oh may he be happy even more, may he have a prosperous and a happy life forever.

If you do that, you're not going to give the space for that envy and unhappiness and that negativity in your mind.

The more you practice this positive mindset, the more you practice this appreciative joyfulness, you can be happy about yourself.

even on the hard days, even though your life is in a tough place.

So that is why whenever we see successful people, people having a happy life, we have to wish the happiness of them.

That is called modhita.

So when we practice this simple Buddhist practice of modhita,

or appreciative joyfulness, we can be happy about our life, and also we can be peaceful within.

Namo Buddhahaya.

We all seek happiness in this world.

If I ask from you, would you like to be happy in your life?

What will be your answer?

You will say, of course, I want to be happy in my life.

I want this peaceful state.

I need to be in that.

That is your answer.

That is the answer of all living beings.

Buddha says that all living beings like to be happy, and they seek the happiness.

If you really think about our life, we are in a never-ending journey of pursuing happiness.

Let me tell that again.

We are in a never-ending journey of pursuing happiness.

That means we are pursuing happiness, we are chasing and we are seeking for happiness, but yet we have not found it.

So what is the reason for this not finding happiness?

Why we don't find happiness in our life?

We are seeking it, we are finding for it, but we don't find it.

What is the reason?

Well, the Buddha teaches us that we are finding

or we are seeking this happiness from a source

that the happiness does not exist

because we are seeking happiness from external world we are seeking happiness from this materialistic things well

when you seek happiness from materialistic things or external world you get pleasure

but that is not happiness pleasure is something temporary

and it gives you this instant gratification but in happiness the happiness is long-lasting

and it gives you this happiness or the contentment about yourself

so that is why Buddha teaches us that you're finding the happiness from a source where the happiness does not exist.

So the more you find it, the more you become frustrated.

So, will we ever be able to find happiness in our life?

The Buddha answers this question.

He says, yes, you can find happiness in your life.

How to do that?

If you look closely to the first and the second verses of Dhammapada,

Buddha says, If one with an impure mind speaks or acts,

the suffering will follow him like a cartwheel following the ox.

If with an impure mind one speaks or acts, the suffering will follow him.

and in the next verse Buddha says if with a pure mind if with a pure mind one speaks or acts

the happiness will follow him like a shadow following a man

so that means the happiness and the sadness entirely depends on the purity

and the impurity of our mind when our mind is pure we can find the happiness.

So, how can we find or how can we gain this purity in our mind in order to find the happiness?

Well, Buddha teaches us there are a lot of things that you can do to make your mind pure.

So today, I'm going to share with you few things that can give you the happiness in your life,

that you can find the happiness in your life.

First thing, accepting the reality of life will give you the happiness.

You know, life is full of ups and downs.

You sometimes you have good days, sometimes we have bad days, sometimes we have beautiful memories,

sometimes we also have miserable memories.

So life is not something that is going equally every day.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

When you realize this reality, you can face these situations successfully, right?

It is not always this bad experience makes us frustrated.

It is our reaction towards this bad experience makes us frustrated.

Whenever you get a bad experience or a bad day or a bad situation,

tough situation, difficult situation, you have two choices.

Either you can focus on the pain and feel miserable about

that situation or you can focus on the lesson that bad situation

teaches us and learn from it and start growing your life.

So if you accept the reality of life, it is not temporary.

Sometimes the people around us are not in our control.

We cannot control their reactions.

We cannot control their opinions.

So when you realize these situations, you can face those situations successfully.

That is one thing, accepting reality of the life.

Number two, Buddha said, be generous.

Practicing generosity is a major practice in Buddhism.

Well, in Buddhism, the generosity is known as dhana in dana buddha says

100

that you have to give without any expectations we have to give

101

and we have to dedicate towards others without expecting anything in return that is one thing that we have to practice

102

most of the time we like to hold on to things or gather the things towards us

103

that is what people think when you gather more

104

when you collect more things you will get rich

105

and you will gain happiness but that does not give you the happiness it will give you the pleasure

106

but it is temporary so what we have to do

107

but the says be generous give help others dedicate a part of your life on behalf of others

108

when you do that when you become more generous

109

let's say like this you gave some foods to a poor person let's say like that when you see that person

110

is having those foods and overcoming his and his hunger and making his life much better

111

you can be happy by seeing that when you become happy like that you feel happy about yourself

112

right nothing can give you

113

that happiness like by eating a good food by dressing a nice dress you cannot gain

114

that happiness you don't feel happy about yourself right after let's

115

say after hundreds hundreds of years later maybe 10 decades later

116

when you think about that that incident i gave this food to this poor person

117

when you when you remind that you feel happy even then you feel happy.

118

That means happiness is long-lasting.

119

So Buddha says, be generous, help people, do something nice every day for a person.

120

That is one thing we can do.

121

And number three, forgiving.

122

Forgiving is one of the most important things that we can do to create happiness in our life.

123

We have to forgive ourselves, also we have to forgive others too.

124

Because forgiving, when you forgive, it doesn't mean that you are saying okay to others mistakes.

125

It's okay.

126

No, you're not saying like that.

127

When you forgive, you make your heart free.

128

So when you forgive, it's not for that person, it is for you.

129

And also we have to forgive for ourselves.

130

There are so many mistakes that we all have done in the past.

131

If you hold on to past and if you make this present moment miserable, that will not give you the happiness.

132

So what do we have to do?

133

Whatever the bad thing that we have done in the past, we have to have this ability to forgive ourselves and start all over again.

134

We all have that ability, right?

135

We all have that privilege to start our life again and make it a better one.

136

Okay?

137

So no one is perfect in this world.

138

We all have done mistakes.

139

One thing that we have to do is to forgive and start doing good things.

140

So these are things that we can do to create happiness in our life.

141

And also, there is one happiness that is called the ultimate happiness in this world that the Buddha teaches us.

142

That is called Nibbana or Nirvana.

143

That is the enlightenment.

144

When you realize about the reality of this life, and when you remove this desire or the craving that arises within your mind,

145

then buddha says that is the ultimate happiness simply the nibbana means raga kaya dosa kaya moha nibbana

146

that means removing of the desire anger

147

and the delusion of the mind is called the enlightenment so

148

that is the highest level of happiness that we all can reach

149

so when you practice these practices all right when you when you engage yourself in wholesome state,

150

that will create you the happiness in the life.

151

So practice these things and make your life a happier one.

152

Namo Buddhahaya.

153

Namo Buddhahaya.

154

Welcome to another video.

155

In today's video, let's talk about the purest love in this world.

156

Well, when we love people in a normal life, right, when we make relationships, or when we become kind to people,

157

we tend to be kind or we tend to love people on conditions.

158

Our love and our kindness based on conditions like this, if you became kind to me, then I will be kind to you.

159

If you love me, then only I am going to love you.

160

Right?

161

So that is based on conditions.

162

There is a saying that I have heard that someone is saying,

163

if you be kind to someone expecting that person to be kind in return to you, you are not becoming kind to that person.

164

You are doing a business Right?

165

So, the purest kindness or the purest love in this world is unconditional love and unconditional kindness.

166

Or in another word, unbound love or unbound kindness.

167

So, how to do this?

168

How to practice this?

169

Well, the Buddha teaches us about this universal, unconditional and unbound love and kindness.

170

He says like this, when a mother loves her only child, she loves that child unconditionally,

171

without any exceptions, without any expectations.

172

Same like that, you have to spread the same kindness,

173

same love and same compassion towards all living beings in this world,

174

without any exceptions, without any reservations.

175

So the way to do that is, you have to generate a mind of thinking like, May my enemies be well and happy.

176

May they live long, may they live a happy life.

177

May my friends be happy, may they live long, may they live a happy life.

178

May everyone in this world, without any exception, without any bound,

179

may all living beings in this world be well and happy.

180

May they live long, may they live happily.

181

So, when you spread that mind of love and kindness, that is called the purest form of love and kindness in this world.

182

All the other loves and kindnesses are based on conditions.

183

Based on expectations, it's saying like, if you are loving me only, I'm going to love you.

184

But in true love and in pure love, it's not like that.

185

He's saying or he or she is saying that I need everyone to be happy.

186

I need everyone to be happy in their lives without any expectations.

187

That is the purest form of love.

188

So you have to have a great practice and great dedication, right?

189

And you have to have a great mindset to practice this purest form of love.

190

But you can achieve this by practicing it little by little,

191

step by step, and applying this love and kindness to your practical life.

192

So practice this love and kindness practice as a daily basis.

193

Maybe like whenever you get up in the morning, just sit on the bed, just close your eyes, take a deep breath in, let it out and think.

194

May everyone in this world be well and happy.

195

May my enemies be well and happy.

196

I am forgiving them.

197

Today I choose to forgive them.

198

That is how you practice this little step of pure love and pure kindness.

199

So practice it and feel it that you are feeling the peacefulness inside.

200

So make your life much more better with love and kindness.

201

Namo Baddhaya.
