La actitud completa de Luang Por hacia la vida era tal que me motivaba para querer entrenarme y vivir como un bhikkhu. Para mí, él era el ejemplo viviente del resultado de la meditación budista en la tradición tailandesa del bosque. Luang Por me inspiraba. Al vivir cerca de él y llegar a confiar en él —escuchándolo, mientras comenzaba a comprender el lenguaje— descubrí el talento que... Continuer

Впоследнее время я писал от руки небольшие тексты о Дхамме. Благодаря современным технологиям стало возможным поделиться ими с изучающими Дхамму по всему миру. В результате многочисленных просьб собрать все тексты в... Continuer
Uno de los símiles favoritos de Ajahn Chah ilustra la idea del esfuerzo correcto. Decía que, al plantar un árbol, la gente sabia reconoce que su responsabilidad es la de regarlo y protegerlo de los enemigos. Saben que no pueden controlar la rapidez de crecimiento del árbol, o la dulzura del sabor de sus frutos —esos son asuntos que decide la naturaleza—. De manera similar, en la práctica... Continuer
Questo piccolo libro prese vita come discorso di Dhamma offerto in lingua thailandese.
Aunque nunca he sido un fotógrafo, siempre me ha gustado la fotografía. En el 2011 decidí producir un libro del Dhamma que pudiera ser de interés para mucha de la gente en Tailandia que habitualmente no lee libros del Dhamma. Este sería un libro de fotografías. Solicité fotos sobre cualquier tema a todos mis estudiantes, y a través de ellos, a sus familiares y amigos. En total recibí unas... Continuer
Although it has been my intention that this book should be, as far as possible, a biography as opposed to a hagiography, I am not sure that I have been completely successful. My love for Luang Por and my belief in his enlightenment inevitably colour the text. What I have not done is suppress any scandalous or embarrassing information out of concern for his good name. Hard as it may be to accept... Continuer
Este livro tenta trazer alguma clareza sobre a temática do amor e das relações, visto para o praticante espiritual ser sobejamente importante ter uma compreensão clara destas dinâmicas de forma a poder integrá-las na sua vida diária de uma maneira benéfica, saudável e coerente com o seu Caminho.
Este livro pretende oferecer uma introdução aos ensinamentos do Buda, o que lançará alguma luz num assunto que, para os não-budistas, pode parecer tão inesperadamente racional quão exoticamente estranho.
Ce livre présente une sélection de dix enseignements d’Ajahn Jayasaro. Ces enseignements ont été donnés entre 1995 et 2006, principalement en Thaïlande, et ont été retranscrits et traduits de l’anglais ou du thaï.
The publication of this book, which is to be made available at hotels and other accommodations, meets a long-standing need. There have been others in the past who have begun and then finally abandoned such a project. This book finally succeeds in remedying an important lack. Ajahn Jayasaro has written this book in the form of questions and answers, making it interesting and not overly-academic in... Continuer
Last year I decided to produce a Dhamma book that would be of interest to the many people in Thailand who do not usually read Dhamma books. It would be a book of photographs. I asked for photos on any subject at all from my students and through them their families and friends. In all I received some three or four thousand images, which I whittled down to a few hundred of my favourites. And then I... Continuer
It has always been my intention to share the teachings of Phra Ajahn Jayasaro with other lay followers and those who are seeking the best way to live their lives. In every attendance of the teachings, I have always received good thoughts and advice to help disentangle frustrations in my normal busy life, and most of all, I somehow regain my sati to realize and reconsider the other angles of view...

Many years ago before I was ordained as a monk, I believed that wisdom came from experience. So I left my home country of England for India, roaming around and gathering life experience in Europe and Asia. The more difficult it was, the more I liked it because I felt that difficulties helped me to know myself better, and that was beneficial to my life. But the overland trip to India was a little...

This small book began life as a Dhamma talk given in the Thai language. After I had edited the transcribed version it was printed in Thailand under the title Lak Rak. One of the readers of that book, Varangkana Lamsam, found it useful and decided that she would like to arrange the printing of an English version as a gift of Dhamma to fellow lay Buddhists. Her cousin Pimkaeo Sundaravej, who had... Continuer
