Topic: "Kalyana Mitra ~ Spiritual Friends"
Am I The Only One Who Feels Like This?
When we wake up to our spiritual nature and become more aware of how the mind and world works, we often feel alone and sometimes even question our own sanity. What is "normal" and what is "weird"? Talking and sharing with spiritual friends reassures us of the "right way".

Profile:
Jeff Oliver is a dynamic and creative meditation teacher from Australia. He has been practicing vipassana (Awareness and Wisdom) meditation for about 19 years, eight of which he was ordained as a Buddhist Monk in the Burmese tradition. Jeff has shared practical life skills and ‘mind management’ in many areas of the world including Africa, Asia, Australia and Europe including Turkey.
Jeff's teachings are based on both ancient and modern ways of mind training especially, such as appreciation, forgiveness, "metta" unconditional love, concentration, awareness and wisdom. Basically, Jeff is offering us a ‘toolbox’ of techniques to be used both in formal, intensive meditation and in any situation during our busy and complicated daily life. His style is open, approachable, friendly and gentle yet very effective for the modern seeker of truth.
Many thanks and kind regards,
David Karuna Tan
