It is with great joy that we announce that Luang Por Sumedho will be visiting and staying at Sumedharama from the 1st until the 14th of June, 2024.

Luang Por Sumedho is the first western monk who ordained in the Thai Forest Tradition – Ajahn Chah Lineage, and the founder of the many monasteries of this tradition in the West.

Luang Por Sumedho has also a close connection to the Sangha in Portugal and the name of our Monastery – Sumedharama – is also a way of paying him homage.

During his stay in Sumedharama Luang Por Sumedho will be giving two Public Dhamma Talks, on the 2nd of June and on the 9th of June, both at 3 p.m.
