Nibbana – Coming Home
Here’s a talk on Nibbāna (Nirvana) by Ayya Jitindriyā, who was invited to speak on this topic in an online Buddhist conference last year – organised by the Metta Centre in Sydney.
Description: Nibbana [Skt: Nirvana] is a word pointing to the final goal or peak achievement of the Buddhist spiritual life – the full liberation of the heart. But is it an ‘achievement’? Can it even be a ‘goal’? While the word points to a profound realisation that brings freedom from delusion and dukkha (unsatisfactoriness), the reality is it cannot be sought after, grasped, achieved, aimed at, or even pinned down conceptually! How then are we to understand and approach this highest noble Truth? ‘Coming Home’ gives us a clue.
Sharing of Gratitude
We received this beautiful video letter of gratitude recently, which touched our hearts deeply.
So we wanted to share it here as we feel it represents a universal expression of gratitude and appreciation, which is not about ‘us’, but points to and touches into the deep movement of Love, Truth and Beauty that permeates this world, this heart — right here to be felt and tuned-in to.
Many thanks to Itai for giving permission to share it, and for his beautiful words springing from the heart.

Infinity – a short film meditation
This beautiful meditation on “Infinity” (below) is an audiovisual art piece created by Milan Zulic – an award winning, multi-disciplinary artist based in Switzerland. This creative spiritual piece lovingly captures and encapsulates the intersection between form and formlessness, time and timelessness, the finite and the infinite. He incorporates a verse Jayasāra read from St. Tukaram, giving voice to the deep spiritual sentiments within.
As Milan says: “I hope that ‘Infinity’ will find its way to many other festivals and hearts. I believe that now more than ever the whole world needs to remember its divine nature and return to the path of light.”
Congratulations to Milan for winning the Jury Award at the 2022 short film festival in Turkey for this piece, ‘Infinity’.
