user23952: I'd like to read the context for the following quote from Ajahn Chah:

I want those who train with me to see the truth, not just read the
scriptures. I want them to see if their hearts have been completely
liberated from conceptual thinking.

It's from a calendar (October 2016) put out by forestsangha.org.
Also, an explanation of the meaning of the statement would be very welcome.

user471: It seems to come from "Unshakeable Peace" by Ven. Ajahn Chah, though not verbatim. You can read the full dhamma talk on that link.

When I train my disciples, I train them to practice like this. Because
I want them to see the truth, rather than just read what's in the
scriptures; I want them to see if their hearts have been liberated
from conceptual thinking.
