This episode is a talk given by Ajahn Gunhah Sukakhamo in commemoration of one of his senior disciples, Niphon Upakaro Bhikkhu, also known as Luang Por Laai. This talk comes from a booklet called “Dhamma for the Living and the Dead” which commemorates senior disciples that have died. Luang Por is an honorific meaning “Venerable Father”. Luang Por Laai was a senior bhikkhu at Wat Pah Subthawee. He was 62 years old and had 26 rains retreats as a bhikkhu. He had had cancer for a long time and spent the vassa at a different place. One evening in mid-September, Luang Por Laai phoned Luang Por Gunhah because he was still afraid of dying. Luang Por Gunhah instructed him on how to separate body, feeling and mind, so that the mind would remain peaceful even though the body was dying. This teaching became the theme for many weeks during and after the funeral chanting. --- Forest Path Podcast Support the Forest Path Podcast via Ko-fi

There is a link to the original below. And a quick note: This text did unfortunately contain dozens of grammatical errors.

I have tried to correct these errors as a narrated the text but apologize if I didn’t navigate all of these correctly.

This episode is a series of quotes attributed to Ajahn Gunhah. It’s titled “The Quickest Way” and has been translated by Ajahn Nyanadhammo. As this is a series of quotes rather than a dhamma talk, there will be a brief two or three second pause between each quote. This is so that you can distinguish that a new quote is coming up, and perhaps also for you to pause the audio to reflect upon a point being made in by the previous quote.

This episode is a follow up on the previous episode. It is a translation of teachings by Ajahn Liem, who is the successor of Ajahn Chah as abbott of Wat Pah Pong, titled “No Worries”. These teachings which were given when Ajahn Liem was visiting Australia in 2004. As he can only speak Thai, he would speak for a couple of minutes and then wait as the translator caught up. So the recorded teachings and translations ended up being little packets of dhamma teachings. That’s why they were presented as short teachings under topic headings in the free dhamma book “No Worries”. So in this episode, rather than narrating one long teaching for the whole episode, I have a number of shorter teachings, each starting with the topic. For this reason also, I’ve decided to keep this episode short due to there being so many small teachings within a single episode. If you’d like to give me feedback go to everydaydhamma.net/contact to let me know what you think of this episode.

This episode is going to be a bit different from other episodes. Firstly it is the first time I’ve narrated teachings by Ajahn Liem, who is the successor to Ajahn Chah as the abbot of Wat Pah Pong in the North-east of Thailand. The main difference stems from the format of these teachings which were given when Ajahn Liem was visiting Australia in 2004. As he can only speak Thai, he would speak for a couple of minutes and then wait as the translator caught up. So the recorded teachings and translations ended up being little packets of dhamma teachings.

Mar 30, 2024

This episode is a talk given by the Thai forest meditation master Ajahn Maha Boowa and is titled “K ammaṭṭhāna ”. It was first publish as part of the book “ kammaṭṭhāna - the basis of practice ” which was translated by monks at Wat Pah Ban Taad. The Pali work kammaṭṭhāna literally means “the place of work”. Inside Thailand, what we call in the West the “Thai Forest Tradition” refers to itself as the kammaṭṭhāna tradition, and the monks within it as kammaṭṭhāna bhikkhus. At first this description of “the place of work” or “the basis of work” (as Ajahn Maha Boowa translates it) doesn’t sound very interesting. But on the one hand it is a very down-to-earth and practical approach to Buddhist meditative practice and mental development, and on the other it leads into profound and deep states of mind that are almost completely unknown to Western culture at large. There is quite a lot of Pali terminology thrown into these talks, and it could be hard going for the beginner. It is after all, a teaching directed towards dedicated monks living in Ajahn Maha Boowa’s monastery. For beginners I recommend other teachers, especially western teachers from the Forest Tradition like Ajahn Brahm who are much more accessible in the way that they teach. However, for those who are on the Eightfold Path of practice and who are a bit more intrepid in their approach and seeking to open up the deeper states of mind, teachings like these can be of incalculable value. I endeavour to translate nearly all Pali terms into English on the first usage, and then lean more towards using the Pali - as Ajahn Maha Boowa does - subsequent to that.

A quick note to listeners: This talk is directed at Western monks living in England. Notably Ajahn Sumedho participates in this discussion. There is reference to ‘pacceka-buddhas’ in this talk. This means ‘private buddhas’ who are fully self-awakened buddhas that live in different eras. However, they do not go on to teach and start a Sasana in which millions of beings will follow the teachings and practice of a fully self-awakened Buddha and find their own awakening. They only become awakened but do not teach.

This episode is a talk given by the Thai forest meditation master Ajahn Lee Dhammadharo and is titled “Consciousness” .

The following talk is one of the nine for which we have transcripts from the tapes — and one of the four for which the tapes are still extant. It's a very unusual talk, showing his distinctive humour and style, and providing a lively discussion of the ways in which the concepts of "self" and "not-self" actually function in practice.

This talk is called ‘Establishing the Fundamentals ' and is by Thai Forest Meditation master Ajahn Maha Bua Nyanasampanno. This translated talk appeared in the publication Sanditthiko Dhamma which was translated by Steven Towler. Thankfully he made this translation available for free distribution for non-commercial purposes and as such we can present this audio version of the English translation for you on the Forest Path Podcast. A word of caution before proceeding any further: This talk contains a large number of untranslated Pali terms. If you don't have a reasonable familiarity with Pali terminology you may find this talk heavy going. Ajahn Maha Bua was known for his uncompromising style and the depth of his teachings. These teachings are mostly aimed at practicing monks, but will also be of benefit to lay people who have been practicing meditation for some time. People who are new to Buddhist teachings may find these teachings hard to understand or even just plain incomprehensible. If you are fairly new to Buddhist teachings or meditation practice then I recommend you go along to the Ajahn Brahm Podcast, or to the Treasure Mountain Podcast as the teachings there are usually more accessible to a general audience. If you are an avid fan of deeper Dhamma teachings then please proceed. This audio version is narrated by Sol Hanna.
