After some studies and a search for a good and meaningful way of living\, being disenchanted with the primary focus on material wellbeing so prevalent in society\, he stumbled into a small forest monastery in Sri Lanka in 1998 at the age of twenty-four. The teachings of the Buddha and meditation practice seemed to him to make so much sense\, answer many questions and solve the fundamental problems in life. So\, the same year he ordained there as a novice under Bhikkhu Kaṭukurunde Ñāṇananda and received higher ordination in 2000. He has since lived for about seventeen years in forest monasteries and solitary hermitages in Sri Lanka and about eight years in monasteries and a meditation center in Southeast Asia (Thailand and Malaysia)\, Europe\, the United States and Australia. His main interests are in how the mind works\, how to free oneself from suffering (dukkha) and how to practically apply the discourses of the Buddha (Suttas) to realize the end of all suffering (dukkhanirodha). \nHe is presently living in Newbury Buddhist Monastery\, staying there until the end of April. \n\n\n\nThis event will not be live streamed.

SUMMARY:BSV Vesak Celebrations with Ajahn Brahm
DESCRIPTION:BSV Vesak Celebrations 2024 with Ajahn Brahm\nThe BSV committee invites you to celebrate Vesak Day with us to commemorate the Buddha’s Birth\, Enlightenment\, and Final Passing (Parinibbana). This year’s event will be held at the Buddhaloka Centre Malvern (BCM). \nDate: Sunday\, 26 May 2024\nLocation: 71 Darling Rd\, Malvern East\nTime: 11:30 am – 4.00 pm (AEST) \nWe will have our regular Sunday morning chanting starting at 11.30am followed by a Dhamma Talk by Ajahn Brahm\, ending with a Question & Answer session with Ajahn. \nAs you are aware\, BCM has limited space and as we are expecting a significantly larger than our normal Sunday gathering\, we have decided not to have the Sunday dana offering and communal lunch for this event. The logistics and traffic from the morning dana drop-offs will create traffic congestion and disruption along Darling Road and the neighborhood. This will be unmanageable and beyond our control. \nGiven the event on Sunday will only start at 11.30 am\, there will be no dana offering and communal lunch. We kindly request that you do not bring any food dana to offer to the monastics on the day. However\, you are most welcome to offer non-food requisites to the monastics. Most of the requisites such as robes and smaller items can be purchased onsite on the day. The proceeds will help the BSV to operate the Centre to offer teachings; and provide support to the monastic community of monks and nuns. \nMorning Activities (LiveStreamed)\n11:30  President’s Welcome Message\n11:35  Regular Sunday Chanting\n11:45  Dhamma talk by Ajahn Brahm\n12:30  Q & A session with Ajahn Brahm\n12:55  Sharing & dedication of merit \nAfternoon Activities\n13:00   Water Blessing by Ajahn Brahm\, followed by Meet & Greet and Photo session with Ajahn\n13:30   New member taking the refuges and precepts | Refreshments (porch area at the back of the Vihara)\n*14:00  Dhamma Talk by Ajahn Brahm for Dhamma School students & parents and Teens Group\n*15:00  Dhamma Talk by Ajahn Brahm for Cityzen\n16:00   End of event \nJoin Online on ZOOM:\nTopic: BSV Dhamma Talk | The Power of Vesak (11:30 – 13:00)\nMeeting ID: 869 6427 8517 | Passcode: Vesak2024\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/86964278517?pwd=0Zps6AhzvwRvPVNNgJSW5aSwqR01Zv.1 \n*Please note the sessions between 2 – 3.15 pm are primarily for Dhamma School students\, parents\, Teens Group and Cityzen.
