Buddhist Meditation and Theravada Buddhism

We are buddhists based in Sheffield and affiliated to the Amaravati Buddhist Monastery. Our practice is inspired by the Theravada tradition of the Thai Forest Sangha as taught by the late Ajahn Chah and his followers. 

By studying the Theravada tradition we try to get as close as possible to the actual teaching of the Buddha himself. The teaching begins and ends with the Four Noble Truths as declared by the Buddha in his first sermon.

A popular buddhist source is the The Dhammapada which is a collection of short verses summarising many aspects of the Buddha's teachings. The goal of the teaching is permanent liberation from suffering.

The word 'Dhamma' as used on this website means the Buddhist teaching. The author of the website has no special insight into the Buddha's teaching and his purpose is to bring to your attention the words of others.
