*Detox Your Mind Tour 2025 โ€“ UK, Europe & Dubai* ๐Ÿง 

Embark on a life-changing journey this October and November with three remarkable Buddhist monks from the Ingiriya Jethavanaramaya Monastery, Sri Lanka.
Ven. Dr Athurugiriye Mahinda Thero, Ven. Rathmalane Bakkula Thero and Ven. Galle Nirodhadhamma Thero.

Through their unique blend of Buddhist philosophy and modern scientific insight, these teachers reveal a deeper understanding of the mind and reality itself. You will begin to see the world in an entirely new light, beyond illusions, beyond assumptions and beyond the limits of everyday perception.

This is a rare opportunity to free yourself from the illusionist mindset to experience clarity and peace within, even if only for a moment. Come with an open heart, experience the teachings for yourself and let your own insight decide.

The Detox Your Mind Tour will travel across Dubai, the UK, Ireland, Finland, Italy and France, sharing profound insights on freeing the mind from stress, anxiety and the causes of suffering.

๐Ÿง  These sessions combine modern science with Buddhist philosophy, helping participants to understand the true nature of the mind, uncover the roots of ignorance and discover practical steps towards genuine happiness and inner peace.

๐Ÿ’ซ Whether youโ€™re seeking calm amidst lifeโ€™s challenges or simply curious to explore mindfulness on a deeper level, this is a wonderful opportunity to learn directly from teachers dedicated to guiding others towards liberation.

The monks will personally lead each session, offering compassionate guidance to help you detox your mind and awaken clarity. Every program is completely free of charge, as part of their mission to share wisdom and healing with the wider community.

๐Ÿ“… Tour Schedule:

Dubai โ€“ 7 Oct (+971 56 140 0836 โ€“ Binara)

United Kingdom โ€“ 8 Oct โ€“ 30 Oct (+44 7958 675626 โ€“ Savindu | +44 7886 952400 โ€“ Janaka)

๐ŸŒฟ Buddhist Detox Retreat โ€“ Tallong 2024 ๐ŸŒฟ

July 11โ€“13 | Tallong Outdoor Education & Retreat Centre

Over 25 participants gathered for a transformative 3-day Buddhist retreat in the serene landscapes of Talong. From 5:30 a.m. starts to evening reflections by the campfire, each day was packed with Mind Lab experiments, detox talks, individual & group discussions, and mindful activities aimed at clearing the noise of everyday life and reconnecting with inner peace.

For many, it was their very first retreatโ€”and the experience was nothing short of life-changing. Guided by compassionate teachers, participants dived deep into understanding the nature of the mind and the reality around them. The joy of simply being present, helping each other, and sharing space with like-minded seekers created an unforgettable atmosphere.

At the end of the retreat, we invited everyone to leave a note in our โ€œDetox Jar.โ€ Hereโ€™s what some shared:

โœจ โ€œThe humility and love received was extraordinary.โ€
โœจ โ€œSuch an incredibly knowledgeable and selfless community.โ€
โœจ โ€œItโ€™s beautiful to see people helping others without an agenda.โ€
โœจ โ€œUnconditional acts of serviceโ€”the warm fire, the mealsโ€”everything felt like a blessing.โ€
โœจ โ€œThe volunteers were kind, lovely, and hardworking. Their generosity made this all possible.โ€

๐Ÿ™ A heartfelt thank you to all the selfless volunteers who made this retreat possible. Your kindness lit up every moment and left a lasting impression on all who attended.

๐Ÿ“ Weโ€™re now looking forward to our End-of-Year Retreat in Sri Lanka. If you missed out this time, donโ€™t worryโ€”your chance is coming!

๐ŸŒŸ๐—˜๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฝ - The Architecture of Being | QUT | 12th June 2025 ๐ŸŒŸ
What an inspiring and eye-opening morning it was! ๐Ÿ’ซ

With hearts wide open and minds curious, we gathered at Queensland University of Technology (QUT) to dive deep into The Architecture of Beingโ€”a profound Dhamma session guided by the extraordinary Ven. Dr. Athurugiriye Mahinda Thero. ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฌ

From the very first words, Ven. Mahinda Thero gently unravelled the unseen layers of our existenceโ€”challenging us to question the foundations of who we think we are and how we perceive the world. ๐ŸŒโœจ

๐Ÿ” We explored how suffering isnโ€™t born from the world itself, but from the inner blueprints of perception weโ€™ve unknowingly constructed.
๐Ÿ’ก With clarity and compassion, Ven. Mahinda Thero showed us how recognising these illusions can open the doorway to wisdom, freedom, and lasting peace.

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œItโ€™s not the world that traps usโ€”but how we see it. And when we begin to see with wisdom, peace naturally follows.โ€ ๐Ÿชž๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ A massive THANK YOU to each and every one of you who attended with such openness and enthusiasm! Your presence and energy made the session truly special.
๐ŸŒŸ Special appreciation to QUT for hosting us and to the Ministry of Nirvana โ€“ Australia for bringing this enlightening event to life.

๐Ÿ“ธ Stay tuned for photos and shared reflections from this incredible session!
Letโ€™s continue this journey togetherโ€”towards truth, clarity, and inner awakening. ๐ŸŒฑ

๐Ÿ“ Theosophical Society, Hobart | Monday, 2nd June 2025

At The Great Deception Dhamma talk, Ven. Dr. Athurugiriye Mahinda Thero guided us through a profound exploration of how the mind creates false realities. Through clear, insightful reflections, we uncovered how our perceptions not the world itself are often the root of suffering, stress and discontent.

Attendees engaged deeply, exploring how our perceptions shape our reality and often lead us into cycles of stress and dissatisfaction. The session offered profound insights into recognising and understanding these mental constructs. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

As shared during the session, it is not the world that traps us but our perception of it. And when we begin to see with wisdom, peace naturally follows. ๐Ÿชž

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who attended and contributed to the enriching discussions. Special thanks to the Theosophical Society Hobart for hosting us. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

Stay connected as we continue to explore the path to clarity and inner peace.

๐ŸŸก Pindapatha in Berwick, Victoria โ€“ A Rare Glimpse into an Ancient Tradition

In the stillness of a crisp Melbourne morning, the peaceful footsteps of Buddhist monks moved quietly through the streets of Berwick. This serene walk, known as Pindapatha or alms round, is an ancient Buddhist tradition where monastics go on a mindful walk to receive food offered by the lay community, an act rooted in reverence, simplicity and the deep interconnection between the community and the Sangha.

Dressed in simple robes and carrying only their bowls, the monks walk in silence, symbols of renunciation in a world chasing after noise and material gain. What they receive is just a meal. But what we receive, in return, is immeasurable.

๐Ÿงก To offer food to a monk is considered one of the most meritorious acts in Buddhism. A gesture that supports their journey and connects us to timeless values of generosity, simplicity and mindfulness. It is said that the giver gains not just blessings, but clarity of heart and peace of mind.

As the people of Berwick stepped forward, hands full of freshly prepared offerings, hearts full of devotion , this quiet morning became something truly special. A reminder that true wealth lies not in what we accumulate, but in what we give away.

๐Ÿ™ May all who participated rejoice in the merit of this offering.

May these sacred footsteps lead us all toward peace, understanding and the ultimate freedom of the mind.

Mindful Awareness for a Stress-Free Life โ€“ Auckland Recap ๐Ÿง 

On Saturday, over 35 individuals gathered at the Auckland Theravada Buddhist Temple to take part in an evening of deep reflection and transformative learning during the Mindful Awareness session with Ven. Dr. Athurugiriye Mahinda Thero.

With live examples and interactive discussions, participants engaged in a powerful dialogue on how to bring mindfulness into everyday life.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the monastery for warmly welcoming this program and to everyone who attended with an open heart and mind. Your presence made the evening truly special.

๐Ÿ™ This isnโ€™t the end. Itโ€™s a continuation of a journey toward awakening. We hope to return soon. Until then, keep walking the path with awareness and compassion.

In a world where we often feel helpless in the face of suffering, thereโ€™s one thing we can all do, give from the heart.

Your single act of kindness can be the difference between life and death for someone in need. Every drop of blood you donate is a silent prayer, a powerful gift and an offering that echoes far beyond the physical.

This isnโ€™t just a donation, itโ€™s an act of compassion. A step towards a world with less suffering. A way to touch lives without even knowing who you have saved.
