Dhamma Talk by Ven. Luang Por Amaro

Dhamma Talk by Ven. Luang Por Amaro

We joyfully invite you to join us next Friday, 21 June at Nalanda Centre to learn and reflect on Dhamma with Luang Por Amaro, the abbot of the Amaravati Buddhist Monastery in England.  The programme will commence at 8pm with offerings and evening chanting.  We look forward to welcome you.

Luang Por Amaro received his BSc. in Psychology and Physiology from the University of London.  His search for spirituality led him to Wat Pah Nanachat in Thailand, where he ordained as a bhikkhu by Ven. Ajahn Chah in 1979.  He later returned to England and joined Ajahn Sumedho at the newly established Chithurst Monastery.

He resided for many years at Amaravati Buddhist Monastery in England, and in 1996 established Abhayagiri Monastery in Redwood Valley, California where he lived until 2010.  Luang Por Amaro then returned to Amaravati to assume the duties of abbot.
