Intuitive Awareness Paperback – January 1, 2004

5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

This book is compiled from talks given mostly in 2001 by Ajahn Sumedho; they convey an intuitive understanding of the Buddha's teaching which has arisen from over 35 years of practice as a Buddhist monk.This approach starts with accepting ourselves as we are, not as some ideal of whom we think we should be. By doing this a relaxation can take place that creates space for insight to arise.Meditation can mean all kinds of things. It's a word that includes any kind of mental practices, good or bad. For his part, Sumedho means meditation as centering, that sense of establishing, resting in the center. The only way that one can really do that is not to try and think about it and analyse it; you have to trust in just a simple act of attention, of awareness.

This is wonderful book and was a donation-only publication available from the monasteries, but everything in Intuitive Awareness is included as part of the newer book, The Sound of Silence: The Selected Teachings of Ajahn Sumedho, currently available directly from Amazon. So if the used price for Intuitive Awareness is high, you'd be better off getting the same text (plus additional chapters) in The Sound of Silence.

Ajahn Sumedho’s books never disappoint! He’s clear, humorous and inspiring. Every talk comes from a place of kindness and compassion. I recommend this book very highly.

who ever is selling this book should only be asking for shipment costs. This is a book of teachings that is free for the offering, anyone profiting from it is causing an obstacle to the free offering of the teachings.
