    Opening the Door of Your Heart - Ajahn Brahm - ft. Kithmin Wickramasinghe

    Moments of insight, love, and compassion flow through Ajahn Brahm’s stories like rivers of hope. In nearly thirty years as a Buddhist monk, born and educated in the West but trained in the Thai forest tradition, Ajahn Brahm has gathered many poignant, engaging, and profound stories from the Buddhist philosophy. The book has 108 stories covering various aspects of life such as happiness, fear, pain, love, freedom, humility, suffering, wisdom, and many more. Even though the author is a Buddhist monk, the stories need no prior knowledge of the religion to be read, understood, and enjoyed. For anyone out there looking for a ray of positive energy for life, this book is a great read.
