The Venerable Bhante Sujatha
The evidence of the power of our minds is undeniable.. The ancient texts of the Buddha tell us
that no external condition can be the cause of our happiness, only the mind has that ability. When people understand how they are influenced, the root causes of struggle and what we can do with our minds to make things better, sustainable happiness and radiant joy are the result. My life as a Buddhist monk has given me a front row seat to incredible transformation within so many people as I teach them how to empower the mind and cultivate the qualities that will help you find strength and happiness, as well as give you a burning desire to add more love to the world. When we understand our mind, we begin to re-shape our behavior and feelings about so many things… It’s the most loving act of service one can do for
themselves and the world.
Bhante Sujatha is focused on adding more love in the world. He teaches lovingkindness meditation to people around the globe, for all those seeking the art of happiness and contentment. He is originally from Sri Lanka and is the head monk /abbot of the Blue Lotus Buddhist Temple and Meditation Center in Woodstock, IL. His books will be available for purchase after the service.
