Meditation & Dhamma with Ajahn Karuniko

29/4/2017

0 Comments

 
On Thursday 4th May the Abbot of Cittaviveka Monastery, Ajahn Karuniko, will be leading the Theravada meeting. We will start with chanting, meditate for about 30 minutes and then listen to Ajahn's talk. He will have just returned from a pilgrimage in Japan, so question-time will be an opportunity to learn about Buddhist practice there.
​
If you are new to meditation, Ajahn Karuniko will give guidance during the session.

The Theravada Group of the Hampshire Buddhist Society warmly welcomes you to a Day Retreat at the Hamblin Trust on Sunday 17th September. Ajahn Karuniko, the Abbot of Chithurst Monastery, will be leading the day.

The retreat will consist of dhamma teaching, sitting & walking meditation, and question opportunities. The purpose of the day is to become acquainted with key aspects of the Buddha’s teaching through the practice of meditation. The programme will be suitable for newcomers as well as established meditators.
