To welcome the New Year, the locals in Georgia went through the cold weather for dharma crowdedly. Thirty-one local residents went through the –4°C weather to meditate on Wednesday January 3rd, 2018.
They all had good inner experiences. Some saw inner light and felt very peaceful as much as they didn’t want to open their eyes nor stop meditation.
The dharma of the week Phra Dr. Nicholas Thanissaro taught on how to cope with the stress. At the end of the Q&A session, the locals asked their questions actively and the teaching monk answered their questions clearly so that they came back home happily.
