Over dit audioboek

Knowing that reliable information on the practice of insight meditation was much needed by practitioners in the West, the renowned Burmese master Ledi Sayadaw wrote the "The Manual of Insight." He covers many topics, such as the distortions of perceptions, the Noble Truths, the higher knowledges, Nibbana, and others, fully expounded and furnished with brief descriptions, some of which are drawn from the Pali texts, while others are the product of Ledi Sayadaw's own teachings.

Over de auteur

Ledi Sayadaw was a highly respected and developed monk in Burma (Myanmar), both in pariyatti (intellectual/ scriptural knowledge) and in patipatti (practice/ meditation).The Venerable Ledi Sayadaw lived from 1846 to 1923 and was perhaps the most outstanding Buddhist figure of his age. All who have come in contact with the path of Dhamma in recent years owe a great debt of gratitude to him, as he was instrumental in reviving the traditional practice of Vipassana. Ledi Sayadaw was the first monk in Burma to teach Vipassana meditation to lay persons (individuals who are not monks). One of his leading students was a lay farmer Saya Thetgyi, who he instructed to also teach others. One of Saya Thetgyi's students was Sayagyi U Ba Khin, the teacher of our late teacher S.N. Goenka.In addition to teaching the practice of Vipassana, Ledi Sayadaw produced scholarly work that was concise, clear and extensive. His writings serve to clarify the experiential aspect of Dhamma.
