Ajahn Brahmali conducts an intermediate/advanced meditation class for approximately one hour.
Ajahn speaks on two methods that can lead to the letting go process to happen naturally during our meditation. At the start of our meditation, we can guide our minds towards what is important and valuable in this life. Also, when we have enough mindfulness and awareness during our meditation to let things be, letting go will happen naturally when the causes and conditions are right.

Sue is a retired health professional who has been a member of the BSWA for 30 years, and who continues to enjoy exploring her spiritual path with the help of Ajahn Brahm and the many great teachers here at the Buddhist Society.
Every year, the monastic community (Monks and nuns) go on a three month retreat called the “Rains Retreat” from mid July to mid October. During this period, they do not visit our centres for teachings as it’s a time for deepening their own practice. While the monks and nuns are away, we will have some interesting guest speakers coming in to give the Friday Night talk.
Dust in Our Eyes 2025 (Rains Retreat Speakers' Series 2025) Hear stories of everyday dhamma as told by monastics and lay practitioners from various Buddhist traditions.
