That sounds wonderful!
Youse? I did not know Bhante @sujato was from Brooklyn, NY. I have yet to see him say deese, dem, and dose.
Ah yes! Finally a good translation for the Thai anní, annan, annohn.
No, listening too much is impossible if there is no listener.
Bhante, you are listening too much to silence.
To be honest, workshop style of retreat is a bit daunting for me because of the uncertainties. Luckily, none of my work is on display here. I prefer Bhante’s retreat at BSF retreat centre. Thank you very much for leading the retreats, Bhante. Please come back to Malaysia next year.
Sincerely,
The earth element guy
@Gralock … I didn’t remember this when we were discussing my grandson’s challenges this morning …
I’m just reading this post now for the first time as Ajahn @Brahmali discussed it during a retreat talk last week (at the Nightingale Centre, Derbyshire, in support of Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project). Ajahn seemed quite tickled by Bhante Sujato’s use of ‘youse’.
Good post but I won’t read all the notes as youse are also writing too many comments So I’ll simply end here by quoting Ajahn @Brahmali’s tribute of last week, “Hail @sujato!”
Youse’r not wrong.
How many Andy_Bs do you (not yous) think are here Bhante?
