New Video Dhamma Talks by Ajahn Sona (YouTube)
Birken Forest Monastery
Dear Friends,
On this bright Spring Uposatha (lunar observance day), while Ajahn Sona sits
quietly and contemplatively in the seclusion of his kuti, we send you some
special gifts of Dhamma on his behalf.
During the period of Ajahn Sona's year-long solitary retreat (April 2013 -
April 2014), Birken will be uploading a new series of video talks from our 2013
Winter Retreat. Starting today (June 8, 2013), a new talk will be posted
approximately every two weeks so that our many friends and supporters can stay
connected to Ajahn and continue to benefit from his teachings throughout his
year of seclusion.
The first few talks have now been posted to Ajahn Sona's
YouTube channel. You may subscribe to this YouTube
channel directly (http://www.youtube.com/user/AjahnSona) or view the talks embedded on our website at: http://birken.ca/video_talks.
Each time a new talk is posted, an email notification will be sent to this Google
Group Mailing List (see http://birken.ca/contact
for info on how to subscribe)
A listing of video talks published today follows below. The next talk in the
Winter Retreat 2013 series is expected to be posted on June 23, 2013:
