Description
 
The late Venerable Sayadaw U Pandita, a Buddhist monk for 83 years in Burma (Myanmar), was one of the world's foremost authorities on Satipatthana Vipassana, (mindfulness) meditation, with thousands of students worldwide, and a guiding figure to many senior leaders in his country's long struggle for freedom, democracy, and peaceful coexistence. In Wisdom for the World, the Venerable Sayadaw (45 days before he passed away at 95 years old), delivers his final teaching through this remarkable series of dialogues with his first western student and friend of nearly 40 years, Alan Clements.

Merging classical Buddhist wisdom with visionary insights about modern life, these timeless conversations illuminate the requisites of living with love, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Especially relevant in Burma today, this book fosters hope for a country still convulsing from decades of dictatorship, and in a world increasingly fraught with trauma and complexity.

Essentially, Wisdom for the World provides the psychological and spiritual guidance -- the mindful intelligence -- for anyone desiring to surmount intolerance, hatred, and discrimination, in whatever form it takes.
