This is a recording from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey. Our Dhamma classes are streamed live on Tuesday evenings at 7:15 pm and Saturday mornings at 8:30 am Eastern Us Time.
Our 2019 Sangha Dinner will be December 12, 7 Pm at Bamboo House in Frenchtown. Additional information is below.
Our Dhamma class for Tuesday, December 3, 2019 s is class 27 of 32 classes of our structured study of vipassana - introspective insight into Anicca, Anatta, and Dukkha. Past talks and articles are linked below.
My Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is on the Sallatha and Bahiya Suttas. The Sallatha Sutta teaches the arising and passing away of self-inflicted suffering rooted in ignorance and I-Making. The Bahiya Sutta teaches the culmination of the Buddha’s Dhamma and the practical experience of the cessation of ignorance of Four Noble Truths.
“A well-instructed person who has developed the Heartwood Of The Dhamma understands the arising and passing away of all phenomena…” (Sallatha Sutta)
“This is how you should train yourself. When for you there is in what is seen only the seen, in what is heard only the heard, in what is sensed only the sensed and in what is cognized only the cognized, then Bahiya there is no you in connection with what is seen, heard, sensed or cognized, there is no you there. When there is no you there, you are neither here nor there nor anywhere in-between. This and only this is the end of stress and unhappiness…” (Bahiya Sutta)
