Description: The teachings offered in this small collection have arisen from the experience of hte contemplative life of the nuns. They are reflections born of the moment, in response to specific occasions -- during formal retreat, on the weekly observance day at the monastery, or at a public talk. We begin with Ajahn Upekkha open invitation to us all to establish presence. While those who know the Sisters will no doubt be able to recognize their respective 'voices' through these talks, we hope that the common thread of Buddha-Dhamma will also be clearly discernable, coming through in a way that an nourish the hearts of any who dip into these pages.
