The Importance of Satipatthana | Dennis Sheppard | 16 August 2024

Dennis Sheppard has been involved with the Buddhist community
since 1976, joining the Buddhist Society of Western Australia in
1978 as a young man interested in meditation and spiritual
practice. He went on to serve multiple terms as president, as
well as serving in several other capacities including designing
several buildings for both monastics and the lay community.
Dennis’ talks delve deep to explore reality, deep meditation and
the meaning of life. Dennis was recently awarded life membership
for his services. Every year, the monastic community (Monks and
nuns) go on a three month retreat called the “Rains Retreat” from
mid July to mid October. During this period, they do not visit
our centres for teachings as it’s a time for deepening their own
practice. While the monks and nuns are away, we will have some
interesting guest speakers coming in to give the Friday Night
talk. HEAVENLY MESSENGERS 2024 (Rains Retreat Speakers' Series
