Bi-monthly Theme: In the Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching
In The Heart of the Buddha’s Teaching, Thich Nhat Hanh brings his gift of clear and poetic expression to an explanation of the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path, and other basic Buddhist teachings. Thich Nhat Hanh’s extraordinary contribution to Buddhism and to life is the way he makes these teachings and practices accessible to everyone, showing us how the very suffering that is holding us down can be the path to our liberation.

Time: Every Sunday 9:30 – 16:00
Sunday Day of Mindfulness (DOM) is mainly facilitated by the monks and nuns of AIAB with the intention to bring the practices of Buddhism into daily life. It is a day for us to experience the happiness of the present moment simply by having a series of mindfulness practice activities.

Teaching is an exciting field, where transmitting and exchanging of knowledge have inspired many generations, bringing peace and happiness to teachers and students alike.
