Five of the talks in this book were given for the benefit of Mrs. Pow-panga Vathanakul, who began staying at Wat Pa Baan Taad in early November 1975. The other talk "The Middle Way of Practice", was given to an assembly of bhikkhus in 1962. It was a talk which Mrs. Pow-panga found especially useful. Before arriving at Wat Pa Baan Taad, she had just been released from the hospital where she was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Although she was given only six months to live, she in fact lived another eleven months, largely due to the spiritual strength she gained through the practice of meditation and the help she received in Dhamma.
During the four-month period she lived at Wat Pa Baan Taad, Acariya Maha Boowa gave her about 130 talks on Dhamma.
