From his forest hermitage in southern Thailand, Buddhadasa explains Buddha-Dhamma, or doctrine, as a practical system, open to all. His particular genius as a prophet, critic, and interpreter of Buddhism has been to relate ancient truths to our era, stressing the importance of individual personal experience and putting in explicit terms the process of attaining Nibbana, the ultimate. All can 'touch' the truth.
