Men’s Event: The first noble truth

Sunday 15th February 2026 | 11:00 am - 13:00 pm  

Open to men who have completed a course and are familiar with how we practice.

The men's mornings this year are following the theme of the four noble truths, one of the most fundamental formulations of the Buddha's teachings. Dayajava will be introducing the first noble truth: the truth of unsatisfactoriness, suffering, 'Dukkha'.

Every life has it's parts that aren't fully satisfying, even some that are profoundly painful. Often we are trying to avoid those difficulties or to deal with them only on their own level. The first noble truth points to how liberating it is to face and name suffering for what it is. Join Dayajava and Shuddhanara for a morning of study and practice aimed at doing just that.
