Description

In this talk, Ajahn Nisabho speaks about the 5 Khandhas, or aggregates of clinging, described by the Buddha as the subjective constituents of our sense of self. Letting go of 1) form (rupa), 2) feelings (vedana) 3) perception/ cognition (sañña) 4) formations (sankhara) and 5) consciousness (viññana) allows one to touch a reality beyond them—"Nibbāna".

The Thai Forest Tradition represents a return to the simple way of life taught by the Buddha. Monastics aspire to live as the early disciples did: dwelling in the forest, studying the teachings, and devoting themselves to meditation.
