In May 2023, London Insight Meditation hosted Ajahn Brahmali for a retreat day in London on the theme of “Perceiving like a Buddha”. He was accompanied by Ven Canda and Ven Upekkha, and in this video Ven Canda guides us through a guided loving-kindness (mettā) meditation.
_____________________________
VENERABLE CANDA
Ven Canda met the Dhamma in 1996 in India and practiced intensive meditation, sitting and serving scores of Vipassana retreats, before ordaining in Burma in 2006.
She took full 'bhikkhuni' ordination with her teacher Ajahn Brahm in Australia in 2014 and for the last eight years she and Ajahn Brahm have been developing the UK charity Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project, which will support Britain's first Forest Monastery for women wishing to train toward bhikkhuni ordination.
Ven Canda now has a little Vihara in the beautiful city of Oxford, close the River Thames. Besides running the charity and monastery, she teaches extensively and spends 3-4 months a year in solitary retreat. She loves the Buddha's teachings and her offerings are richly informed by the compassion and pragmatism of the Early Buddhist texts. She emphasises kindness and letting go as a way to deepen stillness and wisdom..
