Mindful of the Body: A Study Guide, by Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu. (revised Dec. 15, 2018) This study guide focuses on the primary sutta in the Pāli Canon dealing with the contemplation of the body: The Discourse on Mindfulness Immersed in the Body (Majjhima Nikāya 119). Early Buddhism teaches that the body can be used to develop mindfulness and concentration, which in turn can be used to free the mind of its attachments to the body. Then the mind and body can live in peace.
A Burden off the Mind, compiled by Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu. (revised Dec. 15, 2018) A study guide on the five khandhas (aggregates) emphasizing the importance of bringing the right questions to the teachings on the khandhas. If you use them to define what you are as a person, you tie yourself down to no purpose. But if you use them to put an end to suffering, your questions fall away and you’re free.
Into the Stream: A Study Guide on the First Stage of Awakening, by Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu. (revised Dec. 15, 2018) For your practice to lead to Awakening, you must develop reliable standards for judging — which practices lead to stream entry, what indicates a true experience of it, and what its necessary results are.
Merit: The Buddha’s Strategies for Happiness I, by Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu. (revised Feb. 13, 2021) This study guide is an introduction to the Buddha’s teachings on merit. The practice of merit (puñña) is often discounted by western Buddhists, yet the Buddha warns that higher levels cannot be practiced safely without merit as the foundation. This book is a companion to Discernment.
