Ajahn Jayasaro (Shaun Michael Chiverton) was born in England in 1958 and took full ordination under Ajahn Chah in Thailand in 1980. After his initial five-year monastic training, Ajahn Jayasaro went on extended solitary retreat before taking on teaching and administrative duties at Wat Pah Nanachat, the monastery dedicated to the Western disciples of Ajahn Chah. Over the next several years he alternated between periods of retreat and service to his monastic lineage, and was entrusted by his elders with writing the official biography of his teacher, Ajahn Chah, and serving as abbot of Wat Pah Nanachat. Since early 2003 Ajahn Jayasaro has been living in a hermitage at the foot of Khao Yai Mountain National Park, giving regular teachings, promoting the integration of Buddhist developmental principles into the Thai education system, and serving as the spiritual director of several Buddhist schools and non-profit projects in Thailand. He is the author of “Stillness Flowing: The Life and Teachings of Ajahn Chah” among other books. You may find out more at https://www.jayasaro.panyaprateep.org/en/home.
