EGO: The Original AI with Jeff Oliver
Advertisement
You are cordially invited to join us on our Special Talk on 24 November 2026, when Jeff Oliver will be back to lead a Meditation & Dhamma Talk in English at Baan Aree, the beautiful location so generously made available to us by the Baan Aree Foundation.
This session will focus on how both AI and the human EGO operate as automated illusions of a solid "SELF". Through an engaging discussion interspersed with guided meditation, let’s examine these parallels first-hand and experience the grounded reality of body and mind in the here and now.
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, 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, 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.
Jeff is an Australian practitioner and teacher of Freestyle Vipassana meditation for over 30 years. For almost 9 years he was a Buddhist Monk in Myanmar tradition under Venerable Chanmyay Sayadaw’s guidance. After disrobing he met and learnt Freestyle Vipassana from Venerable Sayadaw U Tejaniya. With passion for guiding individuals through application of mindfulness with any situation in life, he is invited to share in experiences in many countries including Australia, Czech Republic, Turkey, Malaysia, and Thailand.
We plan a live broadcast of this talk – it doesn't always work, but we will do our best — on our LBS Streaming’s YouTube channel:
