Luang Por Sucitto was the abbot of Cittaviveka – Chithurst Buddhist Monastery from 1992 until 2014. He was born in London and went forth as a bhikkhu in Thailand in March 1976. Luang Por Sucitto returned to Britain in 1978 and took up training under Luang Por Sumedho at the Hampstead Buddhist Vihara. In 1979 he was one of the small group of monks, led by Luang Por Sumedho, who established Cittaviveka – Chithurst Buddhist Monastery.

In 1981 he was sent up to Northumberland to set up a small monastery in Harnham, which subsequently became Aruna Ratanagiri Monastery. In 1984 he accompanied Luang Por Sumedho in establishing Amaravati Buddhist Monastery in Hertfordshire. In 1992 he was appointed abbot of Cittaviveka. On October 26, 2014, he resigned the post, but has continued teaching as before.

Luang Por Sucitto's main work has been in teaching, editing and writing, although he was also largely responsible for the creation of the protocols and standards that flesh out the Ten Precept training of the Sīladharā (nuns) Order.

Dieses Buch nahm seinen Anfang als ein Essay, mit dem Ziel, die Praxis der Achtsamkeit auf den Atem (ānāpānasati) um einige Hinweise zu ergänzen.

Dieses Buch nahm seinen Anfang als ein Essay, mit dem Ziel, die Praxis der Achtsamkeit auf den Atem (ānāpānasati) um einige Hinweise zu ergänzen. Ich wollte meine Aussagen kurz und bündig auf den Punkt bringen, in dem Bewusstsein, dass es bereits zahlreiche Meditationshandbücher gibt, ebenso wie etliche gründliche Darstellungen zur Theorie und Praxis der Achtsamkeit auf den Atem. Doch angesichts der Tatsache, dass diese Meditation von so entscheidender Bedeutung ist, erscheint es meines Erachtens hilfreich, hier auch frische Ansätze einzubringen. Und ich habe festgestellt, dass die Art und Weise, wie ich die Achtsamkeit auf den Atem verstehe und an sie herangehe, sich zwar von der Methode, die man mir ursprünglich beibrachte, etwas unterscheidet, dass sie sich aber dennoch mit ihrer ursprünglichen Sutta-Darstellung im Einklang befindet.

A GUIDE TO STANDING MEDITATION

As standing is something that we do, why not do it with full awareness? After all, standing was one of the positions that the Buddha recommended as a proper basis for mindfulness. Wisely cultivated, it takes strain out of the body, encourages balance and inner stability – and is a support for full liberation.

In this guide, Ajahn Sucitto adds practical details to the establishment and development of this practice. It is for beginners and experienced meditators alike.

This book began as an essay to add some guiding notes to the practice of mindfulness of breathing (ānāpānasati). The intention was to be concise, with the understanding that plenty of meditation manuals are available, as are several thorough expositions of the theory and practice of mindfulness of breathing. However, as this meditation is so crucial, it seems useful to contribute any fresh approaches. And I have noticed that the way I understand and approach mindfulness of breathing is both somewhat different from what I was originally taught, and yet can fit the original sutta presentation.

This book is a substantially revised and expanded version of the 2009 original. It explores the link between external action and mind cultivation – both of which are forms of the kamma that leads to liberation. The book teaches formal meditation practices, the role of devotion, aspects of dependent origination, and the need to establish skilful relationships – kalyānamitta – and the cessation of suffering...

This book is a substantially revised and expanded version of the 2009 original. It explores the link between external action and mind cultivation – both of which are forms of the kamma that leads to liberation. The book teaches formal meditation practices, the role of devotion, aspects of dependent origination, and the need to establish skilful relationships – kalyānamitta – and the cessation of suffering and stress.

This book is a translation of Meditation – An Outline
A great variety of forms of religious practice are associated with the word ‘Buddhism’. However, they all take Siddhattha Gotama, who lived and taught in northern India some 2,500 years ago, as their source or inspiration. It was he who became known as the ‘Buddha’ – that is ‘the Awakened One’, one who has attained great wisdom through their own efforts.
