Hi again!
ULUBUDA is pleased to inform you that we will be organising a trip down to *Wat
Buddhapadipa Temple* on *Saturday, 17th* *October* to attend a

Dhamma Talk by the Ven. Ajahn Brahmavamso

This talk is *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED* (from my personal point of view)
especially for those interested in just learning about Buddhism and having a
good time while you're at it!

>From my personal experience, Ajahn Brahm's talks are so simple yet touches
on the very essence of his topics and he has the ability to fill the
room with laughter.
He will be down in London on the 17th of October after giving a talk in
Cambridge University on the 16th of October.


Below is just short background information on Ven. Ajahn Brahmavamso for
those who are unfamiliar:

*Ven.Ajahn Brahmavamso is often refered to as Ajahn Brahm. He was born Peter
Betts and is originally from **London himself! In the late 1960's he  won a
scholarship to study Theoretical Physics in the University of Cambridge.
After graduating, he taught in a high school for a year before travelling to
Thailand to become a monk and trained with the highly respected and
honourable Thai Buddhist monk, the late Ven. Ajahn Chah.*
*He is currently based in Perth, Western Australia where he is the Abbot of
Bodhinyana Monastery.*
