Books by Bhikkhu Analayo

Buddhist meditator and scholar Bhikkhu Analayo introduces the Buddhist backgrounds to mindfulness, ranging from mindful eating to its formal cultivation as satipatthana (the foundations of mindfulness). Providing an accessible guide, he offers practical exercises on how to develop mindfulness.

Mindfulness in Early Buddhism is a timely and thoroughgoing examination of the significance, meaning and development of mindfulness. In his far-ranging explorations of a number of discourses in the Chinese Agamas and in the Pali Nikayas, Bhikkhu Analayo captures the function and range of mindfulness.

Analayo offers an inspiring biography of the Buddha based on the early discourses and focusing on his meditative development and practice.
