Buddhist Society of Western Australia

This is part of a series of teachings for a retreat led by Ajahn Brahm & Ajahn Canda in the UK on 22 June 2025.

In this talk, Ajahn Brahm shows how taking a different perspective can bring us understanding, contentment, energy, and joy, telling stories and giving similes that illustrate how we can refocus our minds to let go, let be, and make peace with anything that arises in our lives and our minds.
