FOREWORD TO SECOND EDITION

 

The original discourses about “Mahasi Abroad” Second Series was published by U Pwint Kaung, the late President of Mahasi Buddha Sasana Nuggaha Organization, also my father and was translated into English by U Nyi Nyi and Bhikkhu U Aggadhamma in 1981.


In this book, it expressed about the discourses given by Mahasi Sayadaw during his visit to Nepal and India around 1960, which can enrich and enhance the qualities of life for every single person. Sayadaw lectured about the teachings of the Buddha, what are the does and don’ts, what are the wholesome and unwholesome deeds, and about the manners, bodily and verbal acts very thoroughly.


Sayadaw especially taught every detail about the fundamentals of the Practice of Vipassana Meditation, which provides great help to the beginners of meditation. Mahasi Sayadaw put great effort and taught effectively both Buddhist thoughts and Buddhist practice. Even he found difficulties linguistically during his travelling abroad to propagate the Buddha Dhamma.


By reading this book, you will find that the late Mahasi Sayadaw is one of the most eminent meditation masters at all time, and a leader in the revival of Satipatthana Vipassana Meditation. Reading this transcription of Dhamma Talks, inspire may you to further strive towards the attainment of your spiritual goals.

 

May all be beings be well, happy and peaceful.
