Ajahn Appicchato | Why Are We Here? | The Armadale Meditation Group

An online Dhamma talk by Upāsikā Viveka facilitated by Piotr Planeta from Portal Sasana - https://m.youtube.com/user/sasanaPL.
 Upāsikā Viveka said that she feels blessed that she had the opportunity to be close to the death journey of two very close people, so she can share her experience with others, so they can have potentially much more peaceful and wholesome death, when it eventually inevitably comes. The talk, guided meditation and Q&A session also touches on other dhamma topics, like progressive training, gratitude, cultivation of the mind etc.

Upāsikā Viveka is a deeply practicing dhammacārinī, who was given her Pali name by Ajahn Brahm. She is accredited as an advanced Dhamma teacher by the Buddhist Society of Western Australia. She has lived and practiced mostly in seclusion in Southeast Australia at Khemavara Sanctuary for over 20 years, and under the 8 precepts since 2009. Khemavara is in an isolated bush location surrounded by national parks and is a sanctuary for wild animals. Viveka is a very interesting figure because even though she is a lay person, not having had the opportunity to ordain, she practices with the dedication of a nun. Before renunciation she had a professional background in psychology, specializing in Mental Health, and was instrumental in introducing and spreading the Recovery Based Model throughout Australia. 
Piotr Płaneta or Upāsaka Sunyanando is a lay follower on 5 precepts, basing his practice on Early Buddhist Texts and teachings of Ajahn Brahm, Ajahn Sona and Upāsikā Viveka. He is a P.hD student finishing his thesis on "Cognitive and Functional Aspects of Meditation in Theravada Buddhism". He's a lay dhamma and meditation teacher and organiser of retreats and various dhamma events, both with monastics and his own. Right now he's mostly focused on connecting Poland with Buddhist Society of Western Australia and tradition of Ajahn Brahm, organising many events with renunciates related to this project. Together with his kalyana-mittas, he's trying to establish the first Theravada Buddhist Monastery in Poland.
