Differences Between Daoist, Yogic And Buddhist Meditation

Daoism, yoga and Buddhism all have different end goals. These differences are primarily portrayed through their differing meditation techniques. This short lecture will cover both topics above in order to give you a better understanding and hopefully some more insight into your current meditative practise.

I am older I want to live as a Buddhist and learn how to live and be as it is.

Thanks Shaun. Your talks are never too long or boring.for me. The academic side of human experience and longing are the forest. The trees are the individual philosophies and the branches are the philosophy expanded. But the forest is so important for me. To see the whole. It gives me context for the ideas that on the surface seem to conflict.

Great explanation of the differences between Taoist, Buddhist and Hindu meditation traditions.

Thank you for this information. I’m saving this to listen to again. 🙏

Excellent quick lecture!
Answered so many questions for my personal journey. ✨🙏✨

Deeply researched and concisely presented. Talk is drawn from a paper published on Academia.com which goes into more detail. Informative rather than “ inspiring .”

I found this very interesting & informative in a way I could understand. Making me want to learn more about this fascinating subject. Thank you 🙏🕊

Great talk, I enjoyed the quick survey and the similarity of the 4 words. I was wondering when you talked about Ayurveda if that abdomen sea knowledge would be found in ancient chinese medicine, perhaps you’ve already researched there.

Thanks heaps. I have always felt quite confused about the differences and the crossover of these 3. Very helpful. So much gets lost in all the myriad of translation s and discussion.

Super interesting, had many of the stages you describe during non-guided meditations and did not know that was typical. Thanks!

Very good and very informative. Do you have anything contrasting these Eastern Types of meditation with Christian Meditation (James Finley, John Main) and Centering prayer ( Thomas Keating)? Thanks again.

It cleared up some confusion about Zen and Buddhism. I wasn't aware that Buddhism doesn't concentrate on the breath.

Wow! I learned so much in such a short time!! Thank you!!

Thank you, awesome clarifications!
Now, I’m going to read your academic paper.

Grateful! Very informative and helpful and I will be revisiting this again. ✌🏼💕

Brilliant, worth every second of listening! Many thanks for this eye-opener.

Excellent explanations, never a dull moment. Thanks. Will look for the article mentioned

Absolute joy in understanding the background and ancient history of the major styles of contemplative practices and how they relate to today’s differing styles of meditation.

I learned so much in this short 20 mins. I want to learn more.🙏🙏

Thank you Shaun for this lecture. Very informative! ☺️
