About the Author

Jim Reynolds is a native of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and completed high school in Sharon, Massachusetts. He attended Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota, where he played drums in a blues band and became interested in Zen meditation. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Eastern Religion in 1984. After college he lived in a Zen monastery in Minnesota, worked in New York City as a cook in a health foods restaurant, traveled in Europe, hitchhiked and drove across the United States, studied Aikido in California, explored Mexico, backpacked around Hawaii, and spent a summer as a backwoods ranger in the Sierra Nevada mountains. In 1987 he left his California home for Thailand, where he practiced intensive meditation, and Tibet, to seek adventure on the outer path. The author is now a fully ordained Buddhist monk at an international forest monastery in the northeast part of Thailand. He is known as Venerable Chandako Bhikkhu.
