Ajahm Brahm

    Ajahn Brahm, né Peter Betts, est un auteur bouddhiste britannique dédié à l'étude profonde et à la pratique du bouddhisme Theravada. Sa formation académique antérieure en physique théorique à l'Université de Cambridge contraste avec son voyage ultérieur en Thaïlande, où il est devenu moine et s'est formé auprès d'un maître renommé. Dès sa jeunesse monastique, il fut chargé de compiler un guide en anglais du code monastique bouddhiste, qui devint la base de la discipline monastique dans de nombreux monastères Theravada occidentaux. Son œuvre se concentre sur l'application des principes bouddhistes dans la vie quotidienne et sur la promotion du développement spirituel.
