On the basis of the discourses, the essentials of the Buddha’s teachings are presented in short chapters and common errors of understanding are pointed out.

The Tragic, the Comic and the Personal serves as an excellent introduction to the writings of Ven. Ñāṇavīra Thera. The letters in this collection draw on the author’s deep familiarity with both the Suttas and the works of a variety of Western thinkers, and they contain discussions of a wide range of topics related to the Dhamma.

Staring Into the Void is essentially a conversation between existential and phenomenological philosophers and the Buddha, with the overarching aim of putting that conversation to use in resolving that core spiritual crisis that has crippled Western culture since Nietzsche: nihilism and the death of God.

This book offers a practical guide on how virtue and sense restraint, paired with ‘concurrent attention’, result in what the Buddha described as jhāna meditation or an experience elevated from any obstructive states.

Clearing the Path contains the text of Ñāṇavīra's revised Notes on Dhamma (1960-1965) together with 149 letters of varying lengths written by Ñāṇavīra to nine correspondents, which serve (as the author himself stated) as a commentary on the Notes. The texts are scrupulously edited, extensively annotated and cross-referenced by means of a comprehensive index.

Dhamma Within Reach contains rewritten and expanded essays based on the transcripts from a selection of video and audio talks and discussions.

A pastiche of letters about a man and his search for meaning; what he may have found, or ghosts of what may be found.

Getting Off is Samanera Bodhesako’s masterful narrative of his early years as a Buddhist novice and monk.

Clearing the Path contains the text of Ñāṇavīra's revised Notes on Dhamma (1960-1965) together with 149 letters of varying lengths written by Ñāṇavīra to nine correspondents, which serve (as the author himself stated) as a commentary on the Notes. The texts are scrupulously edited, extensively annotated and cross-referenced by means of a comprehensive index.

Seeking the Path consists of Ñāṇavīra's extensive correspondence with Ñaṇamoli Thera from 1954-1959. These letters shed considerable light on the relations between the two men and provide a wealth of material on the formation of Ñāṇavīra's thought prior to his 'stream entry'. The remainder of the volume includes two early essays (Nibbana and Anatta and Sketch for a Proof of Rebirth) as well as notes from a Commonplace Book and Marginalia from books owned by Ñāṇavīra.

The Letters to Sister Vajirā documents the correspondence of the Ven. Ñāṇavīra Thera with Sister Vajirā (Hannelore Wolf, 1928-1991) between November 1961 and January 1962.

The principal aim of these Notes on Dhamma is to point out certain current misinterpretations, mostly traditional, of the Pali Suttas, and to offer in their place something certainly less easy but perhaps also less inadequate.

This book offers a structured anthology of the Pali suttas. Each chapter deals with one theme from the Buddha’s teaching, providing you with some of the most important texts that relate to that theme. The chapters are organised in such a way that they offer a helpful framework for grasping the Buddha’s teaching in its entirety.
