Ajahn Brahmali was born in Norway in 1964. He first became interested in Buddhism and meditation in his early 20s after a visit to Japan. Having completed degrees in engineering and finance, he began his monastic training as an anagarika (keeping the eight precepts) in England at Amaravati and Chithurst Buddhist Monastery.
After hearing teachings from Ajahn Brahm he decided to travel to Australia to train at Bodhinyana Monastery. Ajahn Brahmali has lived at Bodhinyana Monastery since 1994, and was ordained as a Bhikkhu, with Ajahn Brahm as his preceptor, in 1996. In 2015 he will be entered his 20th Rains Retreat as a fully ordained monastic and received the title Maha Thera (Great Elder).
Ajahn Brahmali’s knowledge of the Pali language and of the Suttas is excellent. Bhikkhu Bodhi who translated most of the Pali Canon into English for Wisdom Publications called him one of his major helpers for the recent translation of the “Numerical Discourse of the Buddha”. He has also published two essays on Dependent Origination and a book called “The Authenticity of the Early Buddhist Texts” with the Buddhist Publication Society in collaboration with Bhante Sujato.
How did you know, that I needed these words from you right now? Thank you Ajahn Brahmali.
I like this short videos, right on point . 🙏
I didn't really get the point of the last part. Why would I want to focus on the suffering and realize I can't escape it?
A thought I enjoy more is to rather than focus on the other person and your anger towards them, just look at your own suffering born of the situation, and realize that it is all happening inside you - so you have the full capacity to let that suffering go.
Why is there adventisement on such video? It's so wrong!! This talk was offered free of any charge. It's Dhamma.
