Ajahn Jayasāro is a British and Thai Buddhist monk in the Forest Tradition of Ajahn Chah. He travels around the world speaking to monastics and lay audiences on how to live a happy life, covering topics which are fundamental to Buddhists in their understanding of Buddha's teachings and how to apply them in a fast-changing world.
In this episode, he takes us through an overview of Buddhism as practised in Thailand, and also helps us view our craving for objects, the questions he asked himself as a teenager, which led him to becoming a monk among other things. The Ajahn also clarifies the value of asking the right questions to arrive at wise answers, the importance of being kind, the impact of social media and ways in which we can safeguard ourselves from being overwhelmed by it. We also learn from him the right way to study our meditation experiences, hear him share some episodes from his earlier life, get him to answer a 'frivolous' question. He ends with an inspiring take of a snippet from Buddha's story.
What an amazingly inspiring conversation this is. Don't miss it.

A very inspirational conversation with Ajahn Jayasaro, who provides very important life learnings in a simple manner. The flow of the conversation was very natural, without a prepared set of questions. This, and the other podcasts by "The Values Workshop" have helped many of us understand life from different perspectives. Kudos to all the efforts of the interviewer and his team. Heartfelt thanks to each person responsible for making this podcast available to all of us. Immense gratitude to Ajahn Jayasaro.🙏

I think, we would all be very happy, if Ajahn Jayasaro shared his immense knowledge and experience with us by writing a book, a kind of meditators' handbook. The joy of giving and sharing! 🤩
