About GoodwillProject

GoodwillProject is an independent initiative dedicated to the study and practice of authentic Theravāda Dhamma as preserved in the Pali Canon. The project exists with one purpose: to help you cultivate a mind capable of seeing all phenomena as impermanent (anicca), suffering (dukkha), and not-self (anattā).

Our Principles

• Sources: we rely exclusively on the Pali Text Society (PTS) and direct references to the Nikāyas: Dīgha, Majjhima, Saṃyutta, Aṅguttara.
• No commentaries: we do not use interpretations by modern teachers—only the suttas themselves.
• Practice over theory: every article is an invitation to experience, not intellectual debate.
• Ethics: we collect no personal data, run no ads, and pursue no commercial goals.

Who Is This Project For?

For those who:

• Seek the Buddha’s authentic teaching, free from distortion;
• Wish to begin or deepen their practice of ānāpānasati;
• Want to understand Pali terms in their precise meaning through the Glossary of Pali Terms;
• Are interested in the complete path—from the first step to arahantship.

About the Author

The project is led by Marat Mingazov, an independent researcher of the Pali Canon and a meditator since 2015. All materials are verified against PTS editions and SuttaCentral. The author’s aim is not to create “yet another Buddhist website,” but to offer a space for sincere, unbiased inquiry into truth.

How Is “About” Different from the Blog?

The Blog publishes articles, sutta explanations, and practical guides. This page describes the long-term mission, principles, and sources of GoodwillProject. Here you learn why and how the content is created—not just what it contains.
