Ajahn Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu ~ 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 ~ Theravada Forest Tradition

Solitude (Viveka) by Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu - A Dhamma lecture given at Suan Mokkh on 8 February 1990.  Buddhadāsa Bhikkhu (Servant of the Buddha) went forth as a bhikkhu (Buddhist monk) in 1926, at the age of twenty. After a few years of study in Bangkok, which convinced him “purity is not to be found in the big city,” he was inspired to live intimately with nature in order to investigate Buddha-Dhamma in study and practice. Thus, he established Suan Mokkhabālārama (The Grove of the Power of Liberation) in 1932 near his hometown of Pum Riang (now in Chaiya District).
