Praise for Analayo:Serious meditation students will benefit tremendously from the clarity of understanding that Venerable Analayos efforts have achieved.Sharon Salzberg, author of Real HappinessThis book provides a practical guide for those facing disease and death by helping them to access the ageless wisdom of the Buddhas teaching.Disease and death are undeniably integral parts of human life. Yet when they manifest we are easily caught unprepared. To prepare for these, we need to learn how to skillfully face illness and passing away. A source of practical wisdom can be found in the early discourses that record the teachings given by the Buddha and his disciples.Analayos chief aim is to provide a collection of passages taken from the Buddhas early discourses that provide guidance for facing disease and death. He focuses on the theme of compassion, and is concerned with anukampa: compassion as the underlying motivation in altruistic action.Analayo uses his own translations from the Chinese originals, presented here for the first time. Taken together with his practical commentary, we thereby gain a firsthand impression of what early Buddhism had to say about disease and death.Analayo is a professor of Buddhist Studies at the Sri Lanka International Academy in Pallekele. He teaches at the Center for Buddhist Studies of the University of Hamburg and researches at the Dharma Drum Buddhist College in Taiwan.
