Profound Instructions for Meditation Practice - Upasika Kee Nanayon (3) - Theravada Forest Tradition

Clear and direct teachings for meditation instructions taken from 3 key teachings from the text "An Unentangled Knowing" by Upasika Kee - translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.

Upasika Kee Nanayon or Kor Khao-suan-luang (1901-1978) was a realized female practitioner from Thailand. She was mostly self-taught, reading the Pali canon and other Buddhist literature. She considered the Buddha's Dhamma as her primary teacher. Her dhamma talks and poetry were widely circulated. As word of her spread, she became one of the most popular meditation teachers in Thailand. This, and many of her talks, have been translated into English by Thanissaro Bhikkhu who sees her as "arguably the foremost woman Dhamma teacher in twentieth-century Thailand."

I also just downloaded the book from HolyBooks.com (a really good site for this and other teachings)
The link is just beneath the video if you watch it on Youtube.
