Bhante Sujato — Piya Tan is “a rare teacher in the Buddhist world. Based on his own extensive experience, his authentic, intelligent inquiry into the Buddha’s words is applied to the urgent task of discovering how to best live in a changing and challenging world.”
I have often used his detailed studies of Buddhist scriptures as guides for my own classes.
In Simple Joys, however, he speaks not as a scholar, but as a practitioner. In this he shows the paradoxical truth of a genuine spiritual path: as complex and demanding as it may be, the deepest truths are always simple.
