Monks on Mars | Drew Bellamy | 2 August 2024

Monks on Mars’, following from last years ‘Dhamma and the Dinosaurs’ talk that looked into the deep past, Drew now looks into the future of the universe with a Buddhist perspective.

Drew Bellamy is a former President of the Buddhist Society, serving on the Executive Committee for 3 years up until 2018. Drew was instrumental in overseeing many important structural changes which has allowed the Society to thrive in it’s current format today. Every year, the monastic community (Monks and nuns) go on a three month retreat called the “Rains Retreat” from mid July to mid October. During this period, they do not visit our centres for teachings as it’s a time for deepening their own practice.

While the monks and nuns are away, we will have some interesting guest speakers coming in to give the Friday Night talk.
