Ajahn Brahm explains that meditation posture has no rigid formula: sit comfortably with a reasonably straight back, using mindfulness and compassion to notice and adjust discomfort rather than forcing the body to remain still. These same qualities help quiet the mind, since kindness toward the present moment creates contentment and reduces restlessness, craving, thoughts, and escape. Regularly recognizing the peace and freedom felt at the end of meditation reinforces the mind’s inclination toward deeper stillness. --- This guided meditation by Ajahn Brahm was originally recorded in 27th November 2010.

This talk explores how to live in the present moment and develop equanimity by releasing attachment to both past suffering and future anxiety. Ajahn Brahm introduces the Buddhist approach of “acknowledge, forgive, and learn,” emphasizing self-forgiveness, letting go of resentment and guilt, and refusing to let others control one’s happiness. Through meditation, mindfulness, and simple practices such as eating one spoonful at a time or treating traffic lights as opportunities to relax, people can become more present. — This dhamma talk was originally recorded in 29th May 2026.

The talk explores emptiness as a Buddhist path to freedom rather than a negative state of loss. By releasing possessions, attachments, past memories, future worries, fixed ideas, and the illusion of a controlling self, people can experience greater peace, clarity, receptivity, and happiness in the present moment.

Ajahn Brahm explains rebirth through the metaphor of mangoes: each life is different, yet connected by cause and effect, with deep character traits, habits, and spiritual qualities carrying forward rather than memories or physical abilities.
