Venerable Abhinyana was born in 1946, in England to a Protestant family. In 1970, during summer holidays in India, he made his first contact with Buddhism and found out this religion was what he needed to follow and practice. Finally, in 1972, he left his home and became Buddhist monk in the Thai Theravada Tradition in Malaysia. From 1979 he started his teaching career here and there, to provide the teachings of Buddha for everyone with the purpose of helping them get rid of their suffering and achieve happiness. He is constantly travelling to offer the Dharma talk for those wishing to learn and practice Buddhism. For more details on the Late Ven.Abhinyana's Books log on:- http://members.tripod.com/anatta0/
