BEYOND EXPECTATIONS!
The response to Bhante Mahinda's public talk "Beyond Self" on March 12 is hot!
600 seats of the 1,000-capacity Imperial Ballroom in One World Hotel, Bandar Utama, have already been filled up! And the organiser, Innovate Solutions Sdn Bhd, is still counting.
The online registration has been outstanding just from awareness created from email blast alone. It was even before the printed posters have been distributed to temples and centres for display.
Expectations are that there will be a surge following the quarter-page advertisement in the Star on March 3 and subsequent write up in the Metro Section on March 5.
Please hurry to register if you have not done so! Confirmation of seat is via seat number given immediately receipt of online registration.
Since the email blast, the Aloka Foundation office has been flooded with enquiries as why online registration... why Friday... why hotel...
Through the kind auspices of sponsor and organiser, Innovate Solutions, this is the first time that a Dhamma talk by Bhante Mahinda is held at a hotel venue with such a large seating capacity. It is the intention of the sponsor and organiser for many to be able to listen to Bhante in what it considers a "rare and much awaited talk"
Friday? It is a celebration of Bhante's 61st birthday. For this occasion, Bhante has aptly chosen to teach "Beyond Self".
As we all know, peace and happiness can be so fleeting. One moment we are happy, the next, sad. And often, we blame it on a myriad of external factors. Undoubtedly, it is only through an understanding of the true nature of self that one will realise that it is the importance attached to self that peace and happiness elude us.
The idea of 'self' -- i, my, me, mine -- is the greatest stumbling block to lasting peace and happiness. Bhante Mahinda will provide an insight of going beyond self to overcome this and in the process, find the pure and unconditional love, paving the way for the true meaning and purpose of life to unfold!
