Talks & recordings
Teachings given at Mangala Vihara are recorded and shared on our YouTube channel, @MangalaDhammaTalk, free to watch, whenever it suits you. You're just as welcome to sit in on a talk here at the temple. Both are the same open invitation.
Our Dhamma talks live on YouTube, an archive you can return to any time, at @MangalaDhammaTalk.
Recordings are posted to the channel as they're made ready. Subscribe there to be notified when new talks appear, it's the simplest way to keep up, and it costs nothing.
There's no mailing list to join and no login to keep. Just open the channel, press play, and listen.

Talks are woven through temple life, and, like everything here, they're open to anyone who cares to come.
The Sunday public pūjā (a service of devotion) closes with a short Dhamma reflection in English, usually ten to fifteen minutes on a theme for daily practice. Festival days, such as Āsāḷha Pūjā (which marks the Buddha's first teaching), carry a fuller talk. You can read the shape of a Sunday morning on What to Expect.
You don't need to book, and you don't need to be Buddhist. Come as you are, sit wherever is comfortable, and stay as long as you like, or slip out quietly. Both are fine.

For talks at the temple, simply come, services and talks are drop-in. If you'd like to check the day or ask what's on, call the office or drop by on a Sunday, when it's staffed from 10am to 1pm.
No. Talks at the temple are drop-in, the same as our Sunday pūjā, just turn up. Some study classes ask you to register first; if you're unsure which is which, call +65 6744 4285 and we'll tell you.
Yes. Recorded talks are on our YouTube channel, @MangalaDhammaTalk, free to watch any time, with no account needed.
Of course. Talks are open to anyone interested, Buddhists of other traditions, people of other faiths, and those simply curious. No-one will ask you to affiliate or sign anything.
We'd sooner answer a small question than have you wonder. Call the office, or come by on a Sunday (open 10am–1pm).
