Melbourne Retreat 2006 was one of the early retreats conducted by Most Ven. U. Dhammajiva Maha Thero. The Dhamma Talks and the discussions are presented in a concise, precise manner benefiting the listeners. The series also has a historical value being one of the earliest retreats conducted by the Maha Thero to a group of lay practitioners in Australia.

We are grateful to Yogini Isha Suriapperuma who preserved it and handed it over to Damsara for the benefit of our Dhamma listeners.

We have restored and edited the audio files to improve the quality.
