[Alastair Gornall]

Hey,
 
Here are next weeks events! Also, thanks to all those who attended the first meditation session of the year, it is great to get to know many people from different colleges and countries. For all those who wanted to make it but couldn't, don't worry there is another session this Monday:).
 
 
Monday 29th October-Meditation session, led by Thai monk: Ajahn Sangthong @ ULU, Malet St. 
 
 
~
We are very lucky to have such an accomplished and experienced meditation master to lead us in meditations. Ajahn Sangthong has practiced for many years as a monk, in the forests of Thailand, in village temples and now finally in Buddhapadipa temple in London. ULUBUDA seeks to provide for the wide variety backgrounds, religious affiliations and personalities of our members.  Therefore the meditation taught will be a simple concentration meditation and is applicable to everyone from all walks of life.

 For the Buddhists among us there is a short (5 mins) chanting session in Pali, where there is an opportunity to take refuge, and take the 5 precepts. Participation in this is completely optional and a lot of our members choose to just sit and listen to the chanting of the beautiful ancient Indian language of Pali! After the meditation, Ajahn Sangthong will give a short discourse on a topic of Buddhism and also can answer your questions about any issues and problems that may have arisen in your life.
