Let's keep in touch! @dhanachandra, thank you for your kind feedback. It is wonderful for my kids to have the opportunity to see the world. And it doesn't have to be Disneyland all the time. @Bita, thanks to you…Buddhist Fellowship allowed families to attend retreats together. Let’s keep in touch!

His entertaining stories keep me awake. For some reasons, whenever I used to attend talks of other religious faiths, I just kept falling asleep. I enjoy Ajahn's teachings very much because he dwells so much into the topics of the mind. And getting clarity after having lived in doubt and worry for so long, is so very important for me. His talks hold so much practical wisdom; that they benefit even those who are non-Buddhists. With metta, Evelyn @Dr James, I am so happy to find out that you enjoy Ajahn Brahm’s talks too.

You are right...that not it mattered. I would have gone anyway because Ajahn Brahm is there and that makes it 6-star. I've always known meditation retreats to be held in the deep forests. Well, at least the ones that my mother-in-law, who was a Buddhist nun, attended before she passed on. So anything better than staying in a kuti, a little hut and often with no attached toilet facilities, is luxury to me! Were you there too? Do write to me, as it would be nice to connect with like-minded friends on the same journey.

I guess the most important to me is that I must walk the path myself. @SaiF, will be checking out your video in a minute.

He definitely has a gift of delivery and keeping your attention, as well as informing you in such a delightful way. His voice is almost melodic and very comforting, which allows for an open and immediate digestion of his talks. You must tell us more, so that we may all benefit from your experience there. Much blessing, light and love to you. James Evelyn my dear,
