About this listen

Renowned for the beauty and simplicity of his teachings, Ajahn Chah was Thailand's best-known meditation teacher. His charisma and wisdom influenced many American and European seekers, and helped shape the American Vipassana community.

This collection brings together for the first time Ajahn Chah's most powerful teachings, including those on meditation, liberation from suffering, calming the mind, enlightenment and the "living dhamma". Most of these talks have previously only been available in limited, private editions and the publication of Food for the Heart, therefore, represents a momentous occasion: the hugely increased accessibility of his words and wisdom.

Western teachers such as Ram Dass and Jack Kornfield have extolled Chah's teachings for years, and now listeners can experience them directly in this book.

The teacher of my teachers transmitting the dharma by example and deep understand of the path! This truly is an important book and should be read / listened to by anyone - Buddhist and non Buddhist alike! If you’re used to listening to teachers such as Ajahn Brahm you will find that you’re already familiar with Ajahn Chah.

I’ve read this book several times but listening to it as an audiobook created new ‘wow moments’. Amazing!
