MMF #10 Generosity is the New Money

On Saturday, July 5, 2025 between 10.30-12.00 AM (New York Local Time), The Middle Way Institute (MDWI) organized a global session via zoom to connect all The Middle Way Friends from around the world. There are peace-loving participants from 14 countries attending: USA, China, Singapore, Japan, Belgium, Mexico, Bangladesh, Philippines, India, Israel, Brazil, Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand.

The program started with a peaceful guided meditation by Monk Burin. After that, there was a request of 5 Caring Ethics (5 Silas) before the Fund Offering. The Offering in July was led by Araya Elise Green from Australia in Pali and Nguyen Thi Tuong Van from Vietnam in English. Subsequently, the monastic community gave a Pali blessing to all patrons and volunteers. Several participants felt uplifted after the offering and blessing from teaching monks.

Furthermore, there was a time for a deeper connection. Kathryn Claver from Philippines gave an inspiring message in The Middle Way Sharing. Monk Burin delivered a wisdom talk on “Generosity is the New Money.” Finally, all participants were invited to interact casually in 4 smaller groups of house meeting. It was such a valuable time once a month for The Middle Way Friends to practice Giving, Ethics and Meditation together and exchange our meditation and wisdom experiences.

From June 15–22, 2025, the Samui International Meditation Center, in collaboration with The Middle Way team, hosted its 79th 7-Day International Meditation Retreat, welcoming two participants from around the world—including France, and Norway. Guided by Monk Nino and Monk Tri, the retreat offered a unique opportunity for individuals to experience the profound practice of Buddha’s Middle Way Meditation. With the shared aim of calming the mind, healing the heart, or exploring deeper states of consciousness, all participants practiced stilling their minds at the center of the body—a core technique that leads to the ultimate benefits taught by the Buddha: true inner peace, supreme happiness, and the path to liberation.
