Youth ‘Cultivation’ Night

On Saturday 4 July, Nalandian youths initiated an intensive 10-week programme for deepening their learning and practice of the Dhamma.  After a 45-minute meditation, the youths discussed the ‘Ratthapāla Sutta’ from the ‘Majjhima Nikaya’ (MN 82) in relation to their daily experiences. We rejoice in the youths’ zealous spirit to walk along the path of Dhamma.  Sadhu anumodana!
