The young bhikkhu with the Sayadaw at 1:01 is now well known in his own right as Chanmyay Sayadaw U Janaka (unless I am mistaken). He is still teaching.

They took part in my ordination in 1979. Chanmay Sayadaw performed the role of questioning me about my eligibility for ordination. Mahasi Sayadaw was my preceptor.

I just finished reading "Knee Deep in Grace," a book about Dipa Ma's life, teachings, and students' remembrances of her. How wonderful to see this video of her alive. Thank you.

Simple to say my friend. Not so easy to do. Lifetimes of distraction and habitual energy. Takes a LOT of practice, maybe lifetimes! Meta.

There is something so soft and warm and beautiful about her. So at peace. I'd like to be like that.
