Ajahn Jumnien Silsetso, Abbot of Tiger Cave Temple in Krabi, Thailand

Ajahn Jumnien was born in a very small "Ban" or village, in southern Thailand called "Banasan". Banasan is part of the Suratthani province which also includes the beautiful islands of Koh Tao, Koh Phangnan and Koh Samui.

In the mid- 1970's Ajahn Jumnien started this small temple that has grown in size and status in Thailand as a result of Ajahn Jumneun's wonderful presence and dedication to spreading the good word of Buddhism to Thais' and foreigners alike.

Every year Aj. Jumien travels abroad to America to teach special meditation classes to students of Jack Kornfield, a famous western Buddhist author in the United States (California). There are many photos of Ajahn Jumnien visiting California and Chicago, Illinois for teaching meditation courses.

Here is a chapter about Ajahn Jumnien in a book written by Jack Kornfield and offered for preview at Google Books.
