The Nature of Perception | Ajahn Brahm | 17 November 2025

In this powerful and practical talk livestreamed from Thames Buddhist Vihara, Ajahn Brahm encourages listeners to question how we limit ourselves with the scope of our perceptions, urging us to consciously use kindful, open-minded perception in the face of difficulty as a tool to heal our bodies and minds, live happily, and find the path to Enlightenment. This session ends with an hour-long Q&A.  Sutta references: https://suttacentral.net/ DN 29: Pāsādika Sutta (9.
