Luang Por Sumedho Visit:
There are still details to be resolved but the current plan is that he will be with us for up to two weeks around June/July of next year. We hope to invite several other monks and have a ‘solid’ weekend of talks, meetings, discussions. A general dhamma fest. More info as it comes.
