TAO | The Empty Boat - O barco vazio

from Satsang with Swaha - Audio · host Vasant Swaha

“The greatest luxury in this world is to enjoy your own Self.” - Vasant SwahaThis excerpt is from a Satsang from the silent phase of a retreat. Swaha talks about the value of silence, and finding ourselves in the silence. “To be a nobody is the most extraordinary in this world, because everybody wants to be somebody.”At a time when all the religions of the East talked about “finding your Self,” the Buddha declared there was no Self. Swaha explores this point of view - “What is yours in silence? What is yours in love?” and talks about finding out who you are beyond the physical body.The Taoists, with their down-to-earth approach, address this topic with a sweet little koan. Swaha reads words from Chuang Tzu on how to live in an easy and harmonious way. The secret is to become an empty boat crossing the river of life.Vasant Swaha is a modern mystic sharing his love, joy, and wisdom in retreats. This talk is an excerpt from a Satsang in Brazil, from the 13th of December 2014.This audio contains Portuguese consecutive interpretation.For more information visit www.vasantswaha.net“O maior luxo deste mundo é aproveitar o próprio Eu”. - Vasant SwahaNeste excerto, retirado de um Satsang durante o período de silêncio em um retiro, Swaha fala sobre o valor do silêncio e de encontrar a si mesmo no silêncio. “Ser ninguém é a coisa mais extraordinária neste mundo, porque todo mundo quer ser alguém.”Em uma época em que todas as religiões orientais falavam sobre “encontrar seu Eu”, o Buda declarou não haver um Eu. Swaha explora esse ponto de vista — “O que é seu, no silêncio? O que é seu, no amor?”— e fala sobre descobrir quem se é além do corpo físico. Os taoístas, com uma abordagem “pés no chão”, tratam esse tema com um delicado koan.Swaha lê palavras de Chuang Tzu sobre como viver de um modo fácil e harmonioso. O segredo está em tornar-se um barco vazio a atravessar o rio da vida.Vasant Swaha é um místico moderno que compartilha, em retiros, seu amor, sua alegria e sua sabedoria. Esta fala é um trecho do Satsang que aconteceu no Brasil em 13 de dezembro de 2014. Neste áudio há tradução consecutiva em português.Para mais informação, visite o site www.vasantswaha.net.
