Description

Ajahn Dhammasiha shares fond memories of one of his personal spiritual heros, who has strongly influenced his approach to Dhamma practice right at the start of his monastic life in Sri Lanka.

He provides some background info about Ven. Nyanavimala, one of the early Western Buddhist monks, who lived in Sri Lanka for +50 years from the mid 1950ies.
When he passed away in 2006, he was the most senior Westen monk in the world with more than 50 'vassa' (rains retreats).

Ven Ñāṇavimala was well known and highly respected for his uncompromising dedication to Dhamma practice, for his asceticism and frugality, and for his dhutanga wanderings (cārika) all over Sri Lanka for 25 years.
