Additional Information

Who Is This Book For?

If you're exploring Buddhist meditation, especially the Thai Forest tradition, this book is for you. Whether you're just starting out with Vipassana or have been practising for years, Achaan Chah's conversational style speaks straight to the heart, offering both clarity and depth. Beginners will find clear, accessible guidance, while seasoned meditators can appreciate the profound insights woven into every talk.

What Is This Book About?

A Still Forest Pool brings together key teachings from the renowned Thai forest monk Achaan Chah, skilfully compiled by Jack Kornfield and Paul Breiter. This volume distils the essence of insight meditation (Vipassana) through simple yet powerful Dharma talks. It offers timeless wisdom on cultivating mindfulness, compassion, and inner peace—perfect for anyone seeking a direct, experiential approach to meditation.

Key Themes in Insight Meditation

The teachings explore the nature of the mind, the art of letting go, and the path to liberation. Achaan Chah emphasizes direct experience over intellectual understanding. Readers will encounter themes like the middle way, impermanence, and the importance of sustained mindful awareness in daily life. The book encourages a balanced approach, steering clear of both attachment and aversion.

How This Book Can Support Your Meditation Practice

Engaging with these teachings can inspire you to establish or refine your sitting practice. The book offers practical advice for navigating common obstacles such as restlessness, doubt, and drowsiness. Achaan Chah's wisdom helps practitioners see through the illusion of a separate self, fostering a sense of interconnectedness and ease. It serves as a compassionate companion on the spiritual journey, gently reminding us to return to the present moment.

Achaan Chah (1918–1992) was a highly respected Thai Buddhist monk and meditation master who founded two major monasteries in Thailand. His teachings have influenced countless Western practitioners. Jack Kornfield, a former monk and a founding teacher of the Insight Meditation Society, has meticulously compiled these talks along with Paul Breiter. Their careful selection preserves the heart of Achaan Chah's Dharma.
