A gripping account of spiritual effort and progress, this book gives us the inside story of a Thai woman’s path to enlightenment. Her movement from laywoman to write-robed mae chee (eight-precept nun) to fully liberated being is intimately described by an American monk in Thailand who gathered accounts of her life and teachings and translated them into English. The book also offers an inkling of the life of the Thai forest monks, who actually do, or did, go off and live in the forests.
