Synopsis:
The simple joy and happiness to be found in the Buddha`s teachings and way of life are revealed in this wonderful book from Ajahn Sumedho. Modern practical teachings emerge from one of the oldest Buddhist traditions with Sumedho`s warmth, wisdom and humour bringing us right to the heart of Buddhist meditation.
Ajahn Sumedho was ordained a monk in Thailand in 1967 and trained under the great master Ajahn Chah. He is now one of the foremost and most highly respected Dharma teachers in the West.
"Spiritual life is not about becoming someone special, but discovering a greatness of heart within us and every being. It is an invitation to inwardly drop our opinions, our views, our ideas, our thoughts, our whole sense of time and ourselves, and come to rest in no fixed position. Ajahn Sumedho invites us all, ordained and lay people alike, to enjoy the freedom beyond all conditions, a freedom from fears, from gain and loss, from pleasure and pain. In many ways Ajahn Sumedho has become the most successful abbot of any Western Buddhist monastery and a cornerstone in the development of the ordained Sangha in the West. He brings to this ancient form a tremendous sense of joy and freedom." Jack Kornfield. |
