Buddha - How To Live A Good Life (Buddhism)
After reaching enlightenment, the Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama,  wrote out some basic rules to be followed in daily practice which he called “The Five Precepts”. These five precepts of Buddhism can be seen as a representation of Buddhist values and principles. They have a lot of depth, and involve renouncing some behaviours, while developing other, more wholesome qualities. Hence following these precepts helps us build our moral character, and by developing our moral character we accumulate good karma and as such are able to live a good life. The teachings of Buddha have always had a huge influence not only in Asia, but around the world, which is why in this video we take a look at how to live a good life, according to the 5 precepts from the philosophy of the Buddha.

The Buddha was a philosopher, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who is credited as the founder of Buddhism. He was born as Siddhartha Gautama in India in 566 BC into an aristocratic family and when he was twenty-nine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May, with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the awakened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realised in that moment. Around him developed a community of people, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. Nowadays, he is worshiped by most Buddhist schools as the enlightened one who has escaped the cycle of birth and rebirth, transcending Karma. Their main teachings focus on their insight into duhkha meaning “suffering” and into Nirvana, which means the end of suffering.

How To Let Go - Shiva (Philosophy of Tantra). In this video we will be talking about how to let go correctly from the tantric philosophy of lord Shiva. 
In Hindu mythology, there is an idea that sometimes the universe becomes too full. Over time it gathers the weight of billions of human desires, habits, and egos. People cling to things that should have ended long ago, and old systems keep running long after they stop working. Slowly, everything becomes heavy and rigid—until nothing new can grow, because nothing old is allowed to disappear.
When things reach that point, mythology says that Shiva begins the Tandava, his cosmic dance. This dance shakes the entire universe. Stars fall from the sky. Oceans rise and swallow the land. Mountains crumble. Cities vanish. Everything that once looked permanent breaks apart and returns to the dark, formless space from which it came.From the outside, it sounds like the end  of the world. Total destruction. But in the myth, it’s a reset. A clearing of space so that life can begin again.
Hindu tradition explains the universe through three major forces, known as the Trimurti. First there is Brahma, the creator, who brings things into existence. Then there is Vishnu, the preserver, who keeps the world stable and running. And finally, there is Shiva, the one responsible for ending things. But here, destruction is not simply violence or chaos, it represents the natural process through which things dissolve when their time is over. You see this pattern everywhere in life. A song ends in silence. A breath is followed by an exhale. In the same way, every phase of life has to end before another one can begin. Think about what would happen if nothing ever finished. If flowers never wilted, fruit could never grow. If childhood never ended, adulthood could never begin. Endings make space for change. Still, letting go is one of the hardest things we have to do.  Shiva shares the philosophy of Tantra with his wife Parvati.  The word "Tantra" literally means "tool" or "technique", teaching practical ways to understand life, offering methods that help people let go of the past and reconnect with the natural flow of existence. In this video we will be talking about how to let go and move on from the philosophy of Tantra. 
So here are 5 radical ways to let go from the tantric philosophy of lord Shiva. 
01. Neti Neti
02. The Myth of Sati
03. Identify with the Bhasma
04. Stay in the Gap
05. Release the "I-Maker"
