Hi thanks for sharing this
Cute meaningful little film.
Beautiful film with a great message. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this delightful film with its clear message.
Cheers
What a lovely little film. It really affected me. Just beautiful. Wonderful music too.
I loved this little film. A great reminder for us .
All the beauty and simplicity of Zen.
So beautiful! It reminds me to welcome joy in all its forms in every moment, and to not be caught up in the ‘seriousness’ of life and spiritual practice!
Wonderful animated short with a lesson. Watch your thoughts as they become deeds. Watch your actions as they become your destiny.
What a truely wonderful video. It’s opened my eyes.
beautiful little animation to demonstrate how easy it is for us to get caught up in ourselves and our practice. I love it when my little dog comes and sits on my cushion / feet when meditating :)
Beautiful and such a good lesson to be learned! <3
What a lovely wee film. Loved the tai chi!
Ah, loved this video, there is so much we can learn from our pets and from the non human animals.
I loved this nice way to teach compassion. …sorry about your little dog, BGChing. He may have saved your life. What happened to the cobra? Yes, I hope Bobby had a good re-birth or realized The Ultimate Bliss.
The dog in the video sadly reminds me of my beloved dog, Bobby, who passed away last August after fighting with a cobra in my garden. May he have a good rebirth.
