Being Dharma: The Essence of the Buddha’s Teachings

A Book Review

Author – Ajahn Chah

Shamhala, 221 p.

  • He was a Thai Buddhist Master

Ajahn Chah taught many westerners who went on to become teachers of Buddhism themselves. When you read this book, you will understand why so many people gravitated to what he had to offer.

This book is actually a collection of Ajahn Chah’s teachings, gathered from friends and other sources. Demonstrating a deep understanding of the Buddhist path, the creator of this material is at once funny and piercingly direct. The following chapters titles assigned to this collection clearly speak to the essence of what is coming up: “The Trapper’s Snare”; “Beyond Cause and Effect”; “The Path to Peace”.

Serious though his guidance is, Ajahn Chah humorously advises readers not to take themselves too seriously.
