10 minute video, profiles several cases of rebirth.

It's in Chinese. Any fluent speaker able to give a summary? Especially the details that would shed light on the proof, and also what type of karma led to that type of rebirth.
The friend who forwarded me the link, mentioned two stories from there.
1. A former Chinese monk, was reborn as a dog, as pictured in the video with the amputated back legs.
2. A husband who died, came back to his wife as the parrot pictured. He (as the parrot) spoke to her in her native language, explaining some specific details to prove he was the husband, such as knowing the exact date of their wedding.

Thanks for sharing! It's as you summarized above.

The dog cried when the senior monk said that the dog's previous life was a monk who broke some precept.

The parrot's birthday was the same day the husband died, the wife never taught the name of the husband to the parrot, the parrot insist on calling itself the name of the dead husband and bring up details of their wedded life that the wife never taught it. Her co workers taught she is crazy, but experts verified the case somehow.

Advice to younger meditators on jhāna, sex, porn, masturbation

Someone asked: Is porn considered harmful sexual.activity? I don't have a sex life because I don't have a partner and I don't wish to engage in casual sex so I use porn to quench the biological urge to orgasm. I can't see that's it's harmful because nobody is being forced into it. The actors are all paid well and claim to enjoy it etc. The only harm I can see is that it's so accessible these days on smart devices and so children may access it but I believe that this is the parents responsibility to not allow unsupervised use of devices etc. Views? Frankk response: In another thread, you asked about pleasant sensations and jhāna.  I'm guessing you're young, so here's some important advice you won't get from suttas   if you're serious about jhāna.  (since monastics are already celibate by rule)   If you want to attain stable and higher jhānas,   celibacy and noble silence to the best of your ability are the feedstock and prerequiste to tha...

SN 48.40 Ven. Thanissaro comments on Ven. Sunyo's analysis

This was Ven. Sunyo's analysis of SN 48.40: https://notesonthedhamma.blogspot.com/2024/05/exciting-news-honest-ebt-scholars-like.html And here is Ven. Thanissaro's response to that analysis: I think there’s a better way to tackle the issue of SN 48:40 than by appealing to the oldest layers of commentarial literature. That way is to point out that SN 48:40, as we have it, doesn’t pass the test in DN 16 for determining what’s genuine Dhamma and what’s not. There the standard is, not the authority of the person who’s claiming to report the Buddha’s teachings, but whether the teachings he’s reporting are actually in accordance with the principles of the Dhamma that you know. So the simple fact that those who have passed the Buddha’s teachings down to us say that a particular passage is what the Buddha actually taught is not sufficient grounds for accepting it. In the case of the jhānas—the point at issue here— we have to take as our guide the standard formula for the jhānas, a...
