    @yuttadhammo I didn’t say there was anything wrong with it, I just implied that since you are from the western world you wouldn’t be studying buddha. Sorry

  2. yuttadhammo says:

    @crywolf30 How do you dress? Shaving my head and dressing in a simple robe is about as simple and easy a life I can think of; a real support for the meditation practice as well.

  3. crywolf30 says:

    why are you dressed as a monk? surely you know you don’t get enlightened faster by shaving your head and dressing in orange?

    @justmeruhi Yes, everything just happens. I thought I knew it better. I was caught up in the egoland, beleiving I was someone who knew better. Sorry.

    Hey, I’d like to thank you for putting a quality video in HD. I have been looking for something like this for some time.

    Very good stuff!

    @yuttadhammo

    Your videos are very clear and helpful for the beginners, but true religion is free from paths too. With being yourself I mean that there isn’t a path to follow…who is going to follow the path and be freed of suffereing if there isn’t anything at all? Or as Buddha said it: deeds are done, but there is no doer thereof. That is what was being said as be yourSelf. Just be without any action.

  11. yuttadhammo says:

    @KarameloKaramelo You’d rather I were naked and unkempt, I suppose? Being yourself is easy, the basest idiot can do as much… true religion is the path to freedom from suffering. Why be anything at all?

  12. KarameloKaramelo says:

    without the religious dogma? lol. I am looking at your clothes right now and your shaven head. Don’t follow religion. Be yourself. BE the meditation itself!

  16. yuttadhammo says:

    It was edited… the original video (on the DVD) goes over the 10 minute mark.

  17. yuttadhammo says:

    Or like one of those MrDevah racists who live in the dawn of bigotocracy..

  18. yuttadhammo says:

    What’s wrong with a good mental cleansing? 🙂 Honestly, you should try it for yourself before you decide it’s bad.

  19. 7Supernova7 says:

    To Be honest i kinda think this isnt that good because its kinda just brainwashing,, isnt it ?

  20. yuttadhammo says:

    No, Los Angeles.

  21. MrDevah says:

    White people. Always talking too much. Do it yourself diligently and patiently. Don’t be like one of those American idiots living in the Dawn of Idiocracy

  22. adamant1988 says:

    I am very impressed with how you managed to time this to exactly 10:00 on the dot.

  23. yuttadhammo says:

    yes they do. look up “medical” at etymonlineDOTcom.

  24. hypocrita says:

    The words Meditation and Medicine have not the same etymological origin.

  25. yuttadhammo says:

    Do you know what it feels like to feel like you’re doing it right? You can write me a pm if you have specific questions… otherwise keep practicing. Practice makes perfect.
