Ajahn Brahm: "Compassionately Mindful" Dhamma Talk + Guided Meditation 29.06.25
A dhamma talk and guided meditation on holding mindfulness with compassion.
About the teacher
A quiet, direct path.
Ajahn Brahm trained in the Thai Forest tradition under Ajahn Chah before helping establish Bodhinyana Monastery in Western Australia, where he now serves as abbot. His teaching is known for combining strict monastic discipline with a notably light, often humorous public style, and for consistently making formal Theravada practice accessible to lay audiences.
He keeps a busy 2026 schedule including weekly guided meditations and Friday dhamma talks, a retreat in Melbourne in May, a UK teaching tour in November, and the ongoing Jhana Grove retreat programme run through the Buddhist Society of Western Australia.
