The Sutta Weekly

We need to act our talk. In this discourse, we see Venerable Mogallana bringing Sakka, the heavenly king, back to his senses. Link to the sutta: https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/MN/MN37.html

In the MN 36, the Buddha teaches and answers to the questions of the skeptic Saccaka. He elucidates the right concepts of development of mind and body; his spiritual journey into homelessness and his unwavering persistence to not allow feelings of pleasure and pain take over his mind; the jhanas and the three knowledges; what is the real delusion. Impressed, in the end, Saccaka praises the Buddha.

A sophist takes the Buddha to debate, hoping to outwit him, whereas he is the one losing in the end. Link to the discourse: https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/MN/MN35.html

In this MN:33, the Buddha speaks of the qualities that make up a good and not good monk. Link to the sutta: https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/MN/MN33.html

The Buddha converses with venerables Anuruddha, Nandiya and Kimbila regarding their progress and is very impressed by them. My email: [email protected]

Similar to MN:29, the Buddha once again recounts to us about the pitfalls along the path. My email btw: [email protected]

In this discourse, the Buddha warns us of not getting astray during our practice of the Dharma.

In this episode, I attempt to explain the MN: 28. As per my understanding, it elaborates on the five aggregates and why clinging to them causes us suffering.

The Buddha tells us about the ‘footprints’ which lead us to the ultimate truth, that until we reach the real destination, we must not totally believe in the ‘footprints’. https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/MN/MN27.html

In this discourse, the Buddha talks of two kinds of ‘searches’: ignoble and noble. Also, he mentions his own spiritual journey and speaks of the drawbacks of falling for the strings of sensuality. https://www.dhammatalks.org/suttas/MN/MN26.html
