Easy but Deep EP.27: The Deceived Life — a teaching of Luang Por Dhammajayo, Wat Phra Dhammakaya that we must take the fully enlightened one as our standard, not those who do not truly know. Humans often believe the ignorant rather than the enlightened, and so our life is filled with suffering, molded by media to believe that sensory pleasures are happiness. But we can attain true happiness by stopping and being still, through the power of diligence and wisdom, seeking the Triple Gem within ourselves which leads to realizing Nibbana.

Easy but Deep EP.24: Be Happy Every Day, Even on the Day You Die — a teaching of Luang Por Dhammajayo, Wat Phra Dhammakaya that we will be happy every day and night until the end of our lifespan, the ideal life desired by the rich and millionaires. But they lack the knowledge of what gives the highest satisfaction; they seek wealth, yet once obtained they want more without end and never find the highest satisfaction, because they do not know that they do not know — which is extremely dangerous.

Easy but Deep EP.23: Radiating Loving-Kindness and Making Aspirations — a teaching of Luang Por Dhammajayo, Wat Phra Dhammakaya on spreading the stream of merit to cover the home, neighbours, village, district, province, country and the whole world, that the world be clear as glass and diamond, that all be at ease and attain the Triple Gem within, free from suspicion, enmity and conflict. Then make an aspiration by the power of all merits for completeness of form, wealth, virtues, gains, honour, happiness, path, fruits, Nibbana and Vijja Dhammakaya, to recall past lives and build parami to the very end of the Dhamma.

Easy but Deep EP.22: Falling Asleep in the Cradle of the Ocean of Merit — a teaching of Luang Por Dhammajayo, Wat Phra Dhammakaya that perfect sleep is when the mind falls asleep in the midst of samadhi, in the middle of the cradle of the ocean of merit — open, empty, flowing into the centre, with brightness, a sphere of light, and the Buddha image. Forget the hours and sleep normally; on waking it is not drowsy, dazed, tired, or confused. A deep sleep with inner wakefulness, unknown to the world but real in every human. YouTube ID NI7TNhC081M
