Description

This talk is about the concept of interconnectedness, which is the idea that our actions and thoughts have a wider effect on others and the world around us. Ajahn Brahm talks about how small acts of kindness and caring can have a big impact, and encourages people to take responsibility for their actions. He also mentions a funny anecdote about a dancing lollipop lady in London. In this talk, Ajahn Brahm discusses the concept of interconnectedness and how small acts of kindness and happiness can spread, as well as the importance of detaching and disconnecting from negativity and being responsible for one's own happiness.
