My Thursday Dhamma talk, streamed live at 7:15 pm Eastern US Time, will be from the Dhammapada. The Dhammapada is a twenty-six chapter volume in the fifth book of the Sutta Pitaka know as the Khuddaka Nikaya. This talk is from the second chapter titled “Appamadavagga  - Refined Mindfulness.”  The Buddha used the direct term mindfulness to signify the importance of knowing what to hold in mind and what to recognize as fabricated and abandon. This is the purpose of the Eightfold Path and requires the singular meditation method taught by the Buddha in order to develop Jhana..

”Mindfulness is the path to cessation. Those mindful do not suffer. Those mindful have gone beyond suffering.” (Dhammapada 2)
