In August 2022, London Insight Meditation hosted Ajahn Amaro for a retreat day in London, on the theme of "Letting go". In this first talk of the day, Ajahn Amaro speaks of the importance of not clinging to anything.

Our next event with Ajahn Amaro will take place on August 10th 2024, in London. More information here: https://www.londoninsight.org/event/i....
