The La Crosse Wednesday evening meditation group has asked for a reprise of talks I gave last Fall in Rochester, MN introducing the main sections of Heartwood of the Bodhi Tree. This new series began this past Wednesday and will continue over the next couple months for another 3 or 4 sessions.

These talks are an introduction to the most important teachings and concerns of Heartwood rather than a summary of the book. Tan Ajahn’s teaching in Heartwood is so clear and down-to-earth that I would be a fool to summarize. Rather, I offer my own reflections to encourage listeners to read the book for themselves (Wisdom Publications).
