The Mindful way – Ajahn Chah

 

I came across a nice documentary about the Thai forest tradition of monasteries, based on one led by Ajahn Chah.

The video link is given above, it is hosted by the website of Wat Pah Nanachat (WPN)

Wat Pah Nanachat is a Buddhist monastery in Northeast Thailand, in the Theravada Forest Tradition. It was established by Venerable Ajahn Chah to provide English-speaking people the opportunity to train and practice in the way the Buddha taught his monks in the forests 2600 years ago.

The devil and his Friend

The devil and his Friend

The devil went for a walk with a friend, They saw a man ahead of them stop down and pick up something from the ground.

"What did that man find?" asked the friend. "A piece of Truth" , said the devil. "Doesn't that disturb you ?" asked the friend. "No," said the devil, "I shall let him make a belief out of it,and that shall create another new religion."




"A religious belief is a signpost pointing the way to Truth. When you cling to the signpost you are prevented from moving towards the Truth Because you think you have it already." - Anthony De Mello
