A total of 22 participants attended this retreat held on May 1 to May 2 (morning) at Mahindarama Buddhist Temple. Thanks to the volunteers who assisted in this project, the participants a combination of beginners, experienced meditators and ocassional meditators had an opportunity to calm down and experience guided sitting meditation, walking meditation, metta bhavana and listen to a Dhamma Sermon on "How to use Meditation in Daily Life" whilst observing the 8 precepts. The group interview sessions conducted by the Meditation Master Bhante Pannyavaro of Sydney with his decades of meditation experience and knowledge served well to the variety of questions from the participants on the uncertainties to be clarified.
