In January 2021 with the blessing of Ajahn Brahm\, he became the resident Senior Monk at Newbury Buddhist Monastery\, about 90 km from Melbourne\, which has now become his base. \n\n\n\nAbout the Retreat:\nThis retreat will work with some of the meditation techniques available to us for developing the mind in stillness\, peace and wisdom. It will be suitable for new and seasoned meditators. This silent residential retreat consists of walking and sitting meditation practice. There will also be a daily Dhamma Talk and Q&A session.
