These talks-except for the two marked otherwise-were originally given for the benefit of Mrs. Pow Panga Vathanakul, a follower of Venerable Acariya Maha Boowa who had contracted cancer of the bone marrrow and had come to practice meditation at Wat Pa Baan Taad for 102 days, from November 9, 1975 to Fegbruary 19, 1976; during that period Venerable Acariya Maha Boowa gave 84 impromptu talks for her benefit, all of which were tape recorded. After her death in September, 1976, one of her friends, M.R. Sermsri Kaemsri, asked permission of the Venerable Acariya to transcribe the talks and print them in book form. Seventy-seven of the talks, plus an additonal eight talks given on other occasions, were thus printed in two massive volumes together totalling more than 1,000 pages. Six talks from these two volumes have already been translated into English and published in a book entitled Amata Dhamma. The talks in the present collection all deal with the practice of meditation, and particularly with the development of discernment. Since their style of presentation is personal and impromptu, they will probably be best understood if read in conjunction with a more systematic introduction to the techniques of meditation, such as the Venerable Acariya's own book, Wisdom Develops Samadhi, which is available separetly or as part of the volume, Forest Dhamma. The title of the present book is taken from a request, frequently made by the Venerable Acariya to his listeners, that his teachings be taken to heart, because they come straight from the heart.-Thanissaro Bhikku Contents Introduction The language of the heart The marvel of the Dhamma The prison world vs. The world outside Birth & Death A taste for the Dhamma Feelings of pain Investigating pain The principle of the present At the end of one's rope The radiant mind is unawareness An heir to teh Dhamma Unawareness converges, concealing the true Dhamma, the true mind the conventional mind, the mind released Postscript Glossary… (lisätietoja)
