Zen and the Importance of the Arts with Gil Alon
Advertisement
You are cordially invited to join us on 25 May 2026, when Gil Alon will be leading the Monday night meditation at Baan Aree, the beautiful location so generously made available to us by the Baan Aree foundation.
Why are arts so important in the Zen culture? Why is it both important for the artists and for those who enjoy the arts? How are the arts connected to the Buddhist understanding of time? A talk and discussion about Zen, arts and our daily life will be given.
Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experienced meditators. We meet to support and encourage each other in our practice.
Programme:
6:00 pm Baan Aree opens
6:30 pm Start of the session
7:30 pm Q&A
7:50 pm Session ends
8:00 pm Baan Aree closes
Baan Aree is a Thai Buddhist Center, please wear something that is comfortable to sit in, and avoid tight-fitting clothes, shorts, sleeveless tops, and short skirts. There may not be sufficient drinking water on site, therefore you may bring your own water in a closed container. No other food/drinks are allowed in the main room.
As is usual with Buddhist teachings, there is no charge for this event. However, the Little Bangkok Sangha follows the Buddhist custom of Dana (generosity). The teachings and the venue are offered as an act of generosity, and those receiving them can, if they wish, reciprocate by making donations. These go towards the costs of the speaker and the costs of organizing meetings. Boxes for Dana will be provided.
Gil Alon is an international Zen master, singer, actor, theater director, and teacher. In 2000 he was certified as a Zen master in Japan. Gil Alon is a Laureate of the “World Peace Ambassador 2015” award from Save the World Foundation.
