I had to remove a sticky label from a flask. I thought it would be good to give. a small video on how to remove adhesive residue simply by using oil. You can use any type of oil. I had coconut oil so I used that.

I thought I would talk about how monasteries do construction in order to give hope that the monks and the lay people will be able to rebuild. It will be a hardship for sure, but there is a good chance for merit to accrue.

Laksi is one of the workers at Spring Hill Monastery. I asked him to show me how he makes the chai masala tea. This is the third time in 3 months it was made.

Here is another \"Walk and Talk\" video and update. Here, I talk about my progress in learning the Pāḷi language and also the benefit of reading Pāḷi which can slow one down. I also talk about the benefits of repeating the very same Dhamma over and over again. There is a lot one can learn, but putting the very basics into full practice is the most difficult part.

This video explains both passive and aggressive methods for memorizing Pāḷi with the Rote Method. May you be successful in your learning and practice!

Here is the latest from EkaSara (One Voice). It is called Khanda Paritta. It is half of the sutta that is found on the link below. EkaSara plans to redo the previous chants in a similar style similar to this one and the others have been pulled from archive, except for the Metta English Mix. https://archive.org/details/khanda-full_session . This sutta is required to be chanted daily if the monks live in the forest. Its main purpose is to prevent snake bites, but it includes all types of animals, 0-leg (snakes), 2 legs, 4 legs, and many legs (insects and centipedes). It is a magic spell. Where is the magic? Loving-Kindness. I usually ask which of these are the most dangerous. Most people say snakes. It is my belief that the two legged creatures are some of the most dangerous animals on earth. The text and translation are at http://www.ancient-buddhist-texts.net/Texts-and-Translations/Safeguard/01-Pathamakabhanavaram-10.htm

This is a spoken English version of the Metta Sutta, mixed with the Pāi chanting of One Voice (EkaSara). Enjoy! You can see other titles from \"One Voice\" on this channel. You can download the audio here https://archive.org/details/@bks07 Feedback welcome.
