Publisher's Summary

In this lucid classic, beloved teacher Ayya Khema introduces the listener to the essence of the Buddhist path. She addresses the how and why of meditation, providing a clear framework for understanding the nature of karma and rebirth and the entirety of the eightfold path. With specific, practical advice, Ayya Khema illuminates the practices of compassion and sympathetic joy, and offers forthright guidance in working with the hindrances that we all encounter in meditation. Few introductory books are both simple and profound. Being Nobody, Going Nowhere is both.

Ayya Khema clarity

Easy and smooth on mind and yet utterly practical. Best exposition of how the path can be internalised in daily life. No sutra nor any tantra needed yet profound.

Should be on repeat listen

This is a book which will remain on my repeat listen mode. I have struggled with starting meditation but this book comes very close to explaining the real meaning of life and a way to find our own way and peace....the logic is too hard to ignore...I have full faith that now I might just be able to start meditating in the right way for the right reasons....Hope you find similar peace as I did with this book

This is a title that never gets old.

You can revisit this audio book repeatedly. There are gems of wisdom in every sentence. The book is beautifully recited. Ayya karma would be pleased with the result.
