Monk Life: ”Less Dreadful Than I Would’ve Thought” | Ajahn Narindo Q&A

from Clear Mountain Monastery Project · host Clear Mountain Monastery

In this session, Ajahn Kovilo and Ajahn Nisabho interview Ajahn Narindo about lessons learned from the various phases of a modern monastic life. Biography of Ajahn Narindo: Ajahn Narindo was born in 1981 in the Netherlands, where he studied and worked in marketing and law. In his twenties he encountered Buddhism, began practicing the precepts, and eventually turned toward monastic life. In 2012 he received full ordination at Amaravati Monastery in the UK. Since that time, he has practiced and trained at monasteries in Thailand, America, and Portugal - where he is currently spending the Rains Retreat. Through meditation he discovered a peace far deeper than consumerist pursuits, and chose to dedicate his life to this path of practice.
