The Metta community sends our warm wishes to our Guiding Teacher, Gregory Kramer, as he travels in November to Sri Lanka where he will temporarily ordain as a Theravadan Buddhist monk in Minuwangoda at the Sudarsana Meditation Center. While still in robes, Greg will teach a week long Insight Dialogue retreat at the monastery. He will leave Sri Lanka to return to lay life in the United States before the end of the year. Here, Greg is pictured with his teacher, Achan Sobin Namto.
