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.

Ajahn Brahm's 30th Anniversary with BSWA Gala Dinner - Fundraising for Dhammasara Nun's Monastery

'After the Buddha passed away, the offering that gives the highest merit is a gift...

...to the Sangha of Bhikkhus (fully ordained monks) and Bhikkhunis (fully ordained nuns). In no way does a gift to an individual produce greater fruit than a gift made to both Sanghas, not even a gift made to a disciple who is Enlightened'. The Buddha in the Dakkhinavibhanga Sutta, Majjhima Nikaya 142


Here's a pleasant way of making some extraordinary good kamma; a way of helping to ensure that the Nuns' Sangha will have a good chance of thriving, so that we are all blessed with the presence of both Sanghas and the opportunity to grow both of them for this world.


The event will be held at the Pan Pacific Hotel Perth, 207 Adelaide Terrace, Perth WA on Saturday, 22nd June 2013 at 6pm. There will be a vegetarian buffet and a non-vegetarian dinner as well as a Live Auction and a Silent Auction.


Ticket prices : $160 adult       $120  children under 8 years of age
