It’s Like This is written by Ajahn Chah and translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu. Ajahn Chah was a master at using the apt and unusual simile to explain points of Dhamma.
He was especially talented at exploiting the open-ended nature of the simile – using a particular image to make one point in one context, and a very different point in another. This book is a companion to In Simple Terms.
