Ajahn Sumedho urges us to trust in awareness and find out for
ourselves what it is to experience genuine liberation from mental
anguish and suffering, just as the Buddha himself did two and a
half thousand years ago. Buddhism is not about becoming the model
of humanity or escaping the natural consequences of our past deeds,
but of putting aside all pretence and all ideas in order to simply
be where we are. The author therefore encourages us not to take our
lives personally, but to look at the reality of this moment free
from beliefs, views and opinions. He refers frequently to his own
experiences, his own journey along the path, and this he does
humorously, guilelessly and sometimes with brutal honesty. Ajahn
Sumedho, an American Buddhist monk, practised for ten years in
Thailand with the well known monk, Ajahn Chah. He has since spent
over thirty years in England and is the founder of the Cittaviveka
Forest Monastery in West Sussex and the Amaravati Buddhist
Monastery in Hertfordshire. His many books include The Mind and the
Way, Teachings of a Buddhist Monk, and The Sound of Silence.
