Bhante Kovida – A Free Spirit

Bhante Kovida, a Canadian Chinese monk visited Seremban over the last weekend of March 2010 and shared with us his liberal interpretations and views of the practice of the Dhamma. Starting with his Qi Gong teachings at Seremban Buddhist Vihara on Friday night March 26,

he also engaged the devotees in Dynamic Meditation of Luang Phor Theean’s method.

The next day was a full one-day meditation session based on mindfulness.

The Saturday night March 27 saw a full crowd at Sudhamma Buddhist Society absorbing Bhante’s interesting Dhamma talk,

with a 15-minute lights out break in conjunction with Earth Hour.

The next morning being Sunday March 28 saw Bhante educating the younger members on the inter-connectedness of all things and beings, using Nature as example.

We also had the opportunity to offer lunch dana to Bhante.  Sunday night was another new experience in listening to different music in the background whilst mindfully tending to our meditation object

After spending another night at Sudhamma, Bhante was taken around town, walked the Seremban Lake Gardens and squeezed in a quick visit to Bhante Cittamano’s hermitage at Kuala Sawah. After lunch, Bhante left for KL and his next destination. We wish Bhante Kovida sukhi hotu and look forward to his future return to share the Dhamma. Thank you Bhante
