We’re glad to be back at Baan Aree Library, where our group began 12 years ago. It is a great venue.
- My Mind’s Such a Sweet Thing :- In Buddhism we separate the mind (buddha nature) from the content of the mind. Seeing the mind without content, reveals the naked mind. Which is ever present.
- Ricky Gervais is Wrong About Religion :- what the mystic (meditator) knows that no one else does. It is self evident and can be proven in direct experience.
- Meditate Because You Want To:- Meditation is not about ‘wellness’ and ‘healing’. These things may be part of the path, but they are not the goal.
Location:
Baan Aree has regular Dhamma meetings in Thai which are listed at their Thai website: http://baanaree.net/ .
