My favorite talk by Ajahn Brahm, IMO the best ever.

    Great vid, what i've seen so far. There are no good or bad decisions, simply decisions and our best attempt to learn from them and "improve" things.

    I do gain a lot of inspiration and brief insights when I listen to his talks as he puts the word of the buddha into such modernistic manners. It is easy to relate to and he gets down to the point with often fantastic stories that remain in your mind. I wonder if Ajahn Brahm is letting his fame get to him though. Obviously we do not know him personally, but I remember once when he spoke of famous people. He said that a lot of them are very egotistic and I think he used a word like, 'vile' to be around. I wonder if he himself can escape the clutches of fame and have no ego towards what he does. I am aware he in fact lives in a cave a lot of the time, so maybe it doesn't...

    Time will tell.
    Being so high profile, if he fails, it will be big news.
