In the Presence of Nibbana–Practice Weekend w Ajahn Dtun


Friday 20 March

03:00 PM to 05:00 PM


Ajahn Dtun is considered to be one of the greatest living meditation masters in Thailand. Renowned for his gentle demeanour and deep wisdom, Ajahn Dtun has always had a reputation as an impeccable and well-practised monk in the Ajahn Chah Tradition. Even as a junior monk, there was a buzz among the monks regarding Ajahn Dtun due to his dedication to practise and an aura of calm and clarity around him.

The Retreat schedule will consist of morning/evening chanting, mindful work, sitting/walking meditation, Dhamma talk and Q&A in the evening. Retreatants are asked to observe the eight precepts and noble silence. This retreat is more suitable for experienced meditators.

Arrival and check-in between 3 and 5 pm on Friday, 20th March.
