Buddhist Reflections on Life.
This lively, highly readable book offers a radically simple approach to life that is attractively clear to our confused and anxious society. Ajahn Sumedho's advice to live simply, to contemplate the way things are and to let go of suffering brings alive the possibilities of inner peace, wholeness and happiness that is not dependent on external conditions.
A renowned Western meditation master, Ajahn Sumedho is the spiritual director of several monasteries in Britain, including the Amaravati Buddhist Centre, and others around the world. In his new book he draws on his own experience and a centuries-old Theravadan Buddhist tradition to provide practical advice to all those interested in freeing the mind and opening the heart - through formal meditation as well as in daily life.
Written with warmth, compassion and humour, 'The Mind and the Way' is an invaluable resource for both the beginner seeking an introduction to Buddhist teaching and the experienced practitioner seeking renewed inspiration.
