<p>A DEEP AND PERFECT VISION Dhamma Talks by Ajahn Luang Por Tate (Tate Taterangsee) Translated in the Dhamma by Ajahn Sumano Bhikkhu Deeply knowing these facts is the foundation for wisdom. This is the key that opens the door to freedom. The Teaching of the Buddha, stated succinctly,is that the catalyst for wisdom to arise from the knowing (Realizing), in the present moment, that all things are in a state of flux, all conditions are somewhere between mildly and desperately unsatisfactory, and that the idea of who we think we are is a deception (Annata, no-self) based on ignorance.</p>

A Deep and Perfect Vision

Ajahn Sumano Bhikkhu

<p><div> <p>"Sincere inquiry always sparks our movement towards truth. Deep questions signal the manifestation of the very energy through which we outgrow ourselves." -- from the Introduction.</p> <p>Born in Chicago, a law school graduate and real estate professional, Ajahn Sumano abandoned his comfortable American lifestyle for the begging bowl and simple cave home of an ordained Buddhist monk in the tradition of the Thai forest meditation masters. In 1994-95, he conducted a series of question and answer evenings at a guest house in Thailand's Kowyai National Park with English-speaking tourists eager to meet a Western Buddhist monk. The heartfelt questions of these "city" people and the clear and penetrating answers Sumano gave from his "forest" perspective form the basis of this remarkable book. Written on a battered, battery-powered laptop in his meditation cave, Sumano's enchanting personal story and his refreshingly down-to-earth blend of American sensibility and Eastern practice will fascinate newcomers to Buddhist ideas as well as experienced practitioners.</p> </div></p>
