Ajahn Brahms 70th birthday celebrations
Hi all
Yesterday the Buddhist Society of Western Australia celebrated Ajahn Brahms 70th birthday.
The video is 4 hours long but worth a look if you are a fan of his teachings. A real trip down memory lane!
He has committed to using all donations received to build a retreat centre at Newbury here in Victoria (the monastery I attend).
I was shocked when he announced at the end of proceedings that an anonymous donor had contributed $700,000 😮
People are amazing!
I also saw someone hand him a set of car keys at one stage (presumably attached to a car!)

Wonderful that people like Ajahn Brahms can still inspire such generosity.
Ajahn Brahm, the laughing monk!
Happy birthday!
I enjoyed not watching it. Sure it was great.
