Yes—you, too, can quiet your mind. | Jacques Pierre Cole | TEDxSanDiego

Описание: In this introduction to TEDxSanDiego, Jacques-Pierre Cole addresses an age old question, “Why can’t I stop thinking?” With humor and empathy, this compassionate Zen Master reframes how we think about mindfulness and meditation. Zen Master Bon Jacques-Pierre Cole comes from the practice and lineage of the Ngagpa tradition of Tibetan spiritual legacies. His curiosity of “Why we are…” has led him down a lifelong journey of wonder and beauty. He has served our country with military service, built non-profits to help those in struggle, and he now teaches and mentors others to find their authentic purpose. He has traveled all over to discover the beauty of authentic human kindness. In addition to individual mentoring, leading meditation sittings and retreats, he published his early life memoir, ”Seven Attempts 17,000 Thoughts: Suicidal to Survivor, A Man's Journey to Save Himself.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
