Grahame White has been involved in Buddhist meditation practice for over 50 years, beginning his study in England in 1969. Ordaining as a Buddhist monk for one year in BodhGaya, India in 1971, he has been a strong proponent of the establishment of Vipassana meditation in the tradition of Mahasi Sayadaw in Australia and Hawai’i. Now, Grahame leads introductory and day long retreats in Sydney and regularly holds sittings online. Grahame teaches a classical tradition of insight meditation with a relaxed, accessible style that supports the transfer of mindfulness from the formal sitting practice into daily life.
