I had thought to try and do an interview with him, there's some stories from his Bio that would be good to have a record of, plus he can be quite funny at times, what do you think a good idea?
yes, I've read his autobiography and there are fascinating details. Would be great if you can hear more from him.
Where is his autobiography (link?)
is it in English?

Recently (June '23) Ajahn Kalyano also released his autobiography which is also a really great one.

A bit of a sad spin on Avijja paccaya saṇkhāra.
Ajahn Keng is full of khanti so I suppose he'll find ways to manage the problem.

the heart of Buddhism lies in personal transformation and the cultivation of wisdom, compassion, and mindfulness in our daily lives. It's wonderful to see that their teachings continue to inspire and guide practitioners like yourself.

thank you so much for your beautiful verses and encouragement, I used to think my practice is not too bad but recently I realized that's a kind of personal false confidence, I will re-lift up my practice following in the footsteps of those patriarchs of Thai Forest Tradition.
thank you again,
with Metta.
