Chris Gilchrist, a founder member of the Samatha Trust, gives a brief history and overview of Samatha in the UK from when Nai Boonman arrived in 1963 and its development over the last 60 years.


Nai Boonman, who brought our Samatha Meditation practice to the UK in the 1960s, was 90 years old on 5th August 2022. Over the weekend of 6th and 7th August we celebrated his birthday with a series of events at the Samatha Centre, Greenstreete. Nai Boonman and his wife Dang joined us from Thailand via zoom. This video was part of the celebration.
