The Little Bangkok Sangha is inviting you to a Zoom meeting on Monday 10 April 2023 from 5:30 – 07:30 PM Bangkok time. Please note that due to the time difference with Australia we start one hour earlier than we normally do.
We are very pleased that Ajahn Radha accepted our invitation to give a Dhamma talk. The zoom session will include some meditation instructions from the Ānāpānasati Sutta, a dharma talk on The Buddha’s Teachings of Liberation and the opportunity for inquiry or responses.

Radha Nicholson teaches the liberation of the heart through inquiry and insight. She focuses on the freeing of the mind through the realisation of the non-dual nature of reality.
