Synopsis

Webu Sayadaw was a proponent of Anapana-sati, mindfulness of breathing, which he taught as a vehicle for both calm and insight. The present book brings together a wide number of discourses by Webu Sayadaw to give a representative sample of his teachings. His refreshing simplicity, his patience, his lovely sense of humour, and his humility - all of which are revealed in the dialogues with his audience - illumine a side of Buddhism that cannot be perceived in texts and treatises.
