How To Train Your Dragon Ego with Jeff Oliver
You are cordially invited to join us on Friday evening the first of March 2024 for another session with Jeff Oliver at Baan Aree, the beautiful location so generously made available to us by the Baan Aree foundation.
Please note that this will exceptionally be on a Friday evening.
Jeff will explain How To Train Your Dragon Ego. This ego is wild and untrained, and thus creates all manner of suffering. A well trained and disciplined mind can create harmony and stability within ourselves in the world around us.
Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experienced meditators. We meet to support and encourage each other in our practice. If you are a beginner, some instructions will be given; experienced meditators can develop their own practice.
Baan Aree is a Thai Buddhist Center, please wear something that is comfortable to sit in, and avoid tight-fitting clothes, shorts, sleeveless tops, and short skirts. There may not be sufficient drinking water on site, therefore you may bring your own water in a closed container. No other food/drinks are allowed in the main room.
As is usual with Buddhist teachings, there is no charge for this event. However, the Little Bangkok Sangha follows the Buddhist custom of Dana (generosity). The teachings and the venue are offered as an act of generosity, and those receiving them can, if they wish, reciprocate by making donations. These go towards the teacher’s and venue’s costs. Boxes for Dana will be provided.
