“The Stillness of the Jhānas — The Seeing that Liberates”
This book arose from meditation—born of direct experience. Each chapter breathes contemplation, presence, sensitivity, and freedom.
The jhānas are not presented as an end in themselves, but as a silent ground in which everything settles and unfolds in clarity.
In this receptive meditative space, the mind becomes still. A fertile field (gocara) emerges, where wisdom (paññā; prajñā) can ripen—a ground for the direct seeing (vipassanā; vipaśyanā) of impermanence (anicca; anitya), of unsatisfactoriness (dukkha; duḥkha), and of the absence of a lasting self (anattā; anātman).
One who enters this field need not achieve anything—only dwell in what reveals itself. Acting through non-doing.
In this bare awareness, seeing begins. What once seemed closed may open. What was quietly present can be recognised.
This book is an invitation to approach the jhānas as a compass of recognition—for those who do not fear stillness, but trust it; for those willing to rest in what inner meditation gently unveils.
