About this listen

 During his wanderings and work over the last thirty years as a Buddhist monk, Ajahn Brahm has gathered many poignant, funny and profound stories. While traditional Buddhist philosophy is at the heart of this collection, these thoughtful stories are written like playful parables, which are used to launch into a deeper exploration of subjects such as mindfulness, suffering, forgiveness, hope, wisdom and unconditional love. Told with wit and good humour, they reveal moments of compassion in the lives of ordinary people and the timeless wisdom of the Buddha's teachings.©2004 Ajahn Brahm (P)2009 Bolinda Publishing Buddhism Compassion

This random purchase turned out to be the best purchase of this year! The humour, the content, the stories… loved it all! This is not going to be marked as completed as I’ll probably listen to each story again before I go to bed!
I also want to order a paper copy! Utterly hooked!

I liked this book for its humour and stories. It is one of these books which you have to first overcome the slightly irritating voice, I find that I am getting better at this the more books I listen to.

Good stories

Although a born Buddhist, I have lost my way in this world. After a guidance of a good friend I started listening Arjan Brahm’s YouTube discussions eventually led me to buy this book. The simple stories in this book helped me to find my way through a deep depression and helped me to find happiness and taught me to appreciate what I have. Thank you Venerable Ajahn Brahm for writing the book.

This book changed the way I look at life.
