Venerable Upekkhā: "Preparing for Death" Dhamma Talk, Guided Meditation, Q&A 06.10.24

Ven Upekkha leads a guided meditation on death and gives a talk on it with much relevance to our overall well-being and spiritual journey. Reflecting on death is one of 4 contemplations taught by the Buddha and in this talk, Venerable relates the way the Buddha recommended to contemplate death. In the rich Q&A session, participants share a multitude of wise reflections that arose in them during the contemplation, one particularly deep aspect being an apparent memory of a past life and the view of a (non)self. ✨ Anukampa Grove is our new Bhikkhuni residence: the first of its kind in the UK!

ABOUT US: Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project was founded in 2016 by Ven Canda and Ajahn Brahm. The charity aims to spread the Buddha's teachings and give women the opportunity to practice as bhikkhunis for the first time in UK history, by establishing a monastic residence for bhikkhunis. This second aim was accomplished in March 2024, when we procured a property in a secluded woodland hamlet near Oxford, called Anukampa Grove, where Ven Canda now resides.
