Wisdom from Stillness

Easter weekend retreat with Venerable Akaliko Bhikkhu

Meditation is not just for de-stressing from life's busy-ness; it has a far deeper potential to deliver powerful insights about the meaning of life. Learn about the causes and conditions we need to cultivate to transform our practice into a profound tool that cuts through ignorance and illuminates our mind with wisdom.

JOIN BHANTE AKĀLIKO FOR A WEEKEND RETREAT ON HOW TO DEVELOP A DEEP AND MEANINGFUL MEDITATION PRACTICE.

Bhante Akāliko

• Akāliko Bhikkhu is an Australian monk in the Theravada forest tradition. He is the spiritual director of Little Dust and founder of Rainbodhi LGBTQIA+ Buddhist Community. Bhante Akāliko is also the spiritual advisor of Central West Buddhists and a chaplain at Western Sydney University. He sits on the boards of the Buddhist Council of NSW and the Federation of Australian Buddhist Councils.
• Bhante Akāliko went forth as a monastic in 2016 and received full ordination with Ajahn Brahm at Bodhinyana monastery in 2017. He lived for several years with Bhante Sujato at the Monastery at the End of the World in Sydney and now lives as a wandering monk, looking for a place to settle and shake off the dust.
