In this interview, Ajahn Suchart answers questions on a wealth of topics, including the nature of 4th jhana, the basics of mindfulness practice, and the relationship between the knowing element of the mind and the deathless element of Nibbāna.

Phra Ajahn Suchart Abhijāto is one of the most globally well-known and well-respected monks in Thailand.
Born in 1947 in Suphanburi, Thailand, Phra Ajahn Suchart attended California State University, Fresno where he studied Civil Engineering. After returning to Thailand, Phra Ajahn was inspired by an English Dhamma book on impermanence to search for a true path to happiness through formal ordination as a Buddhist monk. At the age of 27, he was ordained at Wat Bovornives in Bangkok with the late Supreme Patriarch as his preceptor.
About six weeks after ordination, Phra Ajahn Suchart traveled to Wat Pa Baan Taad (บ้านตาด) to live and train with Luangta Mahā Boowa Ñāṇasampanno, the preeminent forest meditation monk at the time. Once there, he stayed there for the next nine years.
After his time at Wat Pa Baan Taad and after staying in Pattaya for some time, Phra Ajahn Suchart moved to Wat Yansangwararam (ญาณสังวราราม) in Chonburii (ชลบุรี) in 1984 and has resided there until present. 
Phra Ajahn Suchart is the author of numerous Dhamma books including “Real Happiness,” “Sensual Pleasures are Painful,” and the autobiography “My Way.” He now teaches internationally both in the Thai and English languages.
