Ajahn Khemavaro Retreat June 2013 promotional banner in sidebar

www.jhanagrove.org.au

Ajahn Khemavaro was born in Vietnam in 1966. Completing university studies in the USA, he encountered Buddhism and meditation while working as a stockbroker in Bangkok, Thailand. Instinctively drawn to monastic life, he began training in the Ajahn Chah tradition at the legendary Wat Pah Nanachat in North East Thailand in 1999 and ordained as a Bhikku the following year.

Shortly afterwards, he travelled to Australia to spend several years practising meditation at Bodhinyana Monastery under Ajahn Brahmavanso. He currently resides at Wat Buddha Dhamma Forest Monastery deeply secluded in the mountainous regions of NSW.

Since 2005, Ajahn Khemavaro led numerous retreats in Singapore, USA, Norway and Australia. His deep heart connection with the Thai forest meditation tradition combined with a solid monastic grounding in the west make him a truly unique resource as a meditation teacher.

Do Not Judge Yourself

We can never know another person, so how can we judge? Never mind what others or we have done previously. "There is no such thing as a criminal, only a person who once committed a crime" [Ajahh Brahm].

All that matters is what we do now, how we show kindness, compassion and forgiveness to ourself and others. Feeling is not a problem. What we experience is not a problem. Holding on to it is the problem; that is suffering. Letting go is the end of suffering.

Speaker: Bhikkhuni Hasapanna from Dhammasara monastery.

About Relationships

Relationships are never going to be perfect, however, Bhikkhuni  Hasapanna discusses how we can relate to people around us with trust, kindness, compassion and forgiveness which will  foster good relationships, and in turn, lessen our suffering.

More importantly though we can relate to our own emotions by being mindful and meditation is the key to mindfulness.

Also, listen to some refreshing jokes.
