Please Note: Spotify deletes many of our Buddhist Chanting podcasts, claiming that they are 'Music', and that pure music tracks may not be uploaded to Spotify Podcasts. Personally, I disagree that our chanting constitutes 'Music', but there's not much point trying to argue with a bot. Therefore, I have included a spoken introduction, to make it not exclusively 'music'. Similarly, after the paritta, I have added Luang Por Liem's advice to us while writing a short dedication on a copper sheet to enshrine in our stupa. Hope this helps that Spoti will not delete this episode. The Sima Estalishment Ceremony at Bodhisaddha Monastery, Sydney, was the largest congregation of Bhikkhus in the Theravada tradtion in Australia ever. 40 of the monks had more than 40 rains retreats (years as monks). All 80+ together had spent more than 2,500 years in the robes. You can hear the sonorous, full sound of this large sangha chanting clearly on the recording. Luang Por Liem, the abbot of Wat Nong Pah Pong (Ajahn Chah's monastery) and leading monk of the whole lineage of Ajahn Chah, was the presiding senior monk at the Paritta Chanting Ajahn Varadhammo, abbot of Bodhisaddha Monastery, was the host of the whole event, supporter by his own teacher, Luang Por Anan, the abbot of Wat Marp Jan and one of the most highly respected meditation masters in Thailand.Dhammagiri WebsiteOur Spotify PlaylistsNewsletterDhammagiri Youtube Channel#palichanting #paritta #buddhistchanting #palirecitation #ajahnchah
During his visit to Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage, Brisbane, Australia, Ajahn Karuniko joined our silent afternoon meditation. After the walking meditation, he opened up for a Q&A session, as it was the last opportunity to receive any Dhamma from him, before his departure next day. The first question is about the 5 Spiritual Faculties, and how they relate to developing the Noble 8-Fold Path. Ajahn Karuniko was born in Greater Manchester, UK in 1953. After graduating in Electronic Engineering in 1975 he worked for several years before coming to take up residence as a novice at Cittaviveka in 1982. He became a bhikkhu in 1984 at Cittaviveka with Ajahn Sumedho as his preceptor. He has also spent 3 years with Luang Por Anan at Wat Marp Jan in Tailand. From 2014 until 2019 Ajahn Karuniko served as the abbot of Cittaviveka. Ajahn Moneyyo lived for several years with Ajahn Karuniko at Cittaviveka. He is looking forward to welcoming an old friend, who has been his 'Reciting Teacher' ('Kammavācariya') during his ordination as a monk, and who remained a senior 'Kalyāṇa Mitta' (Dhamma Friend) to him in his junior years as a bhikkhu. Cittaviveka is the first monastery of the tradition of Ajahn Chah outside of Thailand. Ajahn Chah has personally visited the property, and provided guidance and encouragement to Ajahn Sumedho during the very difficult foundation and renovation period.

Q&A with Ajahn Achalo on an occasion when he was visiting Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage in his home town, Brisbane. He shares his memories of his first experiences of inner calm on the beach while listening to the waves and answers questions about the benefit of apirations and rituals and how merit (good actions) can brighten our mind. More teachings by Ajahn Achalo can be found on his website and YouTube channel: www.peacebeyondsuffering.org https://www.youtube.com/@AjahnAchalo Ajahn Achalo was born in Brisbane Australia in 1972. He developed a keen interest in meditation at the age of twenty and a year later left for Thailand to study Buddhism more intently. After a two year period practising in various centres and monasteries, in 1996 Ajahn Achalo ordained as a Theravada Bhikkhu (monk) under Ajahn Liem at Wat Nong Pah Pong, the monastery founded by venerable Ajahn Chah. Although most of his training has taken place in Thailand, Ajahn Achalo has also lived in several international Forest Monasteries in the Ajahn Chah lineage. During his years of training, he has received personal guidance from many remarkable teachers, among them, Ajahn Sumedho, Ajahn Pasanno, Ajahn Jayasaro and Ajahn Kalyano. For most of his Bhikkhu life, he has considered Tan Ajahn Anan, abbot of Wat Marp Jan, to be his principal mentor. Ajahn Achalo is the founding abbot of Anandagiri Forest Monastery, Phetchabun, Thailand.

Ajahn Varadhammo is the abbot of Bodhisaddha Monastery, Wilton near Sydney. He has kindly accepted our invitation to our robe offering ceremony in the Kathina month here at Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage. Ajahn Varadhammo is a disciple of Tan Ajahn Anan of Wat Marp Jan, Thailand. He has trained with Tan Ajahn Anan for more than 10 years, until he was invited to lead the establishment of Bodhisaddha monastery. Even now, he keeps in close contact with his teacher, visiting him regularly, and often providing English translations for Tan Ajahn Anan during his live casts on Zoom. However, although he has done a lot of interpreting from Thai to English, there are not yet that many teachings of Ajahn Varadhammo himself available yet. Therefore, we are very happy that he agreed to provide the main Dhamma talk for our robe offering ceremony. Ajahn encourages us to to rejoice ('anumodanā') in the countless acts of goodness that are necessary to bring sangha and lay supporters together, and conduct such a major event joyfully and in concord.

Daily live sessions at 7pm - 9pm, Indochina Time (Bangkok, GMT+7).
In this morning talk, Ajahn Anan tells us of the benefits that accrue from keeping the practices that the Buddha laid down. He recalls how the establishment of his monastery, Wat Marp Jan, came about through maintaining the practice of going on alms round.
We may be highly educated in worldly subjects and skills, but we do not even know when or how we will die. What we do know is that death must come, and we cannot take anything with us when we die. In this life, we have the great good fortune to have the opportunity to practice and develop our minds.
2021.07.25 | On the occasion of entering the 37th rains retreat at Wat Marp Jan, we set our hearts fully and completely on this practice of Dhamma.

Daily live sessions at 7pm - 9pm, Indochina Time (Bangkok, GMT+7).
In this videoconference talk from 30 Jul, 2021, Ajahn Anan talks about the determination to bhavana, and gives his anumodana to all those who have rendered their help and support to Wat Marp Jan during this period of lock down. "In the present situation, we can see that to have a means of living for a human-being is hard, troublesome, and full of much suffering. There is a battle to fight against the taking over of the pandemic, which is an enemy that we can't see. And this isn't easy. It's very difficult. So this infectious virus has spread all over the world. But though we may have the most suffering like this or the most fear towards this, when times of disaster come up like this, what should we do? The Lord Buddha said that if the time comes when we are suffering and troubled, without any refuge or support, recollect him, the Tathagatha. We think of the Buddha, we think of the Dhamma, we think of the Sangha as our highest recollection and true refuge. When we recollect like this, then our minds have a refuge."

This chant is a support for one's practice of Buddhanusati, the recollection of the Buddha. Ajahn Anan praises the recitation of this chant as part of one's practice in many of his Dhamma talks. Ajahn Anan suggests that we chant it every day, even many hundreds of times in a day, and throughout our daily activities as a way to support mindfulness and brighten the mind as foundations for peace, collectedness, and insight into the Dhamma.

In the many years since Luang Pu Chah's passing in 1992, this is the first year Ajahn Anan has not been to his Memorial Day gathering at Wat Nong Pa Pong due to the pandemic. He gave this talk at Wat Marp Jan on how Luang Pu Chah is still with us in his teachings. If we have deep respect for him, we should practice what he taught until we reap their liberating results.
In preparation for the annual three-month rains retreat, Ajahn Anan exhorts Wat Marp Jan's community to clean the monastery and purify their intention so that the time may be used wisely. He describes in detail how one can use contemplation of the body to overcome greed and lust.
Just before the monastic community began the ceremony for determining to spend the three months of the annual Rains Retreat at Wat Marp Jan, Ajahn Anan gave this Dhamma talk on the Duthangas —practices that go against and steadily wear away at the defilements. Among them are the practices of eating all one's food in one bowl, eating only the food offered on alms round, and not lying down.
