Sedaka Sutta Mindfulness And The Beauty Queen Talk 1 June 12 210

This is a live stream and recording of our Tuesday evening Dhamma class from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey on June 12, 2018. The stream begins every Tuesday at 7:15 PM Eastern US time.

My Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion will be on the Sedaka Sutta. In this sutta the Buddha uses the simile of a beauty queen to teach appropriate mindfulness.

“We will develop mindfulness united with the body. We will pursue mindfulness united with the body. Appropriate mindfulness will be our guide. Appropriate mindfulness will be the basis for steadying our minds right within. Appropriate mindfulness will bring skillful integration of the Eightfold Path” (Sedaka Sutta
