Renowned Buddhist Monk Ajahn Brahm reveals 2,500 year old “Secret” to happiness

Toronto - Buddhist Monk Ajahn Brahm will bring his humour and insight to Toronto, June 26th, 2008 and discuss a not so well kept “secret” of Buddhists.

“I believe there is a longing by people living in this fast-paced world today to find peace and happiness,” says Ajahn Brahm. “As a result, we are seeing a rise in people searching for a greater meaning to life.

Buddhists know the “secret” to happiness is no secret at all. It is an idea that has been around for over 2,500 years. Happiness lies from within and how you internalize and view the world with all of its chaos and uncertainties is the true ‘secret’ to happiness.”

Ajahn Brahm is the author of two books on Buddhism. The first book was “Who Ordered This Truckload of Dung: Inspiring Stories for Welcoming Life's Difficulties.” This book became an instant hit among the readers in North America, which was introduced during his last visit to Canada, three years ago. His latest book is “Mindfulness, Bliss, and Beyond: A Meditator's Handbook.” Well known Buddhist author Glenn Wallis says that “readers seeking a sure guide to ‘bliss better than sex’ will find it in this wonderful book.” Ajahn Brahm will be introducing this new book to North American readers in June.

Ajahn Brahm, born in working-class London in 1951, won a scholarship to study Theoretical Physics at Cambridge University, where he obtained a Masters Degree. He became interested in Buddhism in his teen years, and after obtaining his degree and pursuing teaching, he decided to go to Thailand and deepen his commitment.

Ajahn Brahm was ordained at age 23. He uses his humorous story telling and teaching experience to educate people about Buddhist teachings.

“The idea that you can achieve peace from within, despite the constant deluge of negative thought we are surrounded by today is central to Buddhist philosophy of tolerance and harmony, “says Ajahn Brahm.

Ajahn Brahm will be the guest speaker at Ontario Science Centre in Toronto on June 26th, 2008 at 7pm.
