Laughing Together Builds Harmony | Ajahn Brahm | 30 November 2025

Buddhist Society of Western Australia

About

In this talk starting off the second day of a weekend retreat, Ajahn Brahm encourages us to unlearn our critical nature with his famous story of the two bad bricks, then tells various other stories of errors, mistakes, and unexpected circumstances to help us learn to make peace with every situation, from rain-soaked laundry to the death of a loved one.

This is part of a series of teachings for the "Living in Harmony with the World" weekend retreat led by Ajahn Brahm & Ajahn Canda at the Mercure Hotel, Oxford, November 2025.
