Engagingly, sometimes hilariously, Ksantikara relates the story of Meghiya, assailed by distractions when meditating in his favourite mango grove. The Buddha explains to Meghiya five practices that conduce to 'the heart's release', all based in spiritual friendship, but taking you as far as awakening. Keynote talk at the North London Buddhist Centre Saturday class by our new chair, 10 February 2024.
