Session 2 BB Spring 2019 Retreat - Dependent Origination - The Paticca-Samuppada Sutta

Greetings Friends, This is a recording of the second session of our 2019 Becoming Buddha Immersion In The Dhamma Spring Retreat on May 17, 2019.

This talk begins with the Arahant Sutta. In the Arahant Sutta the Buddha teaches that an Arahant, an awakened human being has recognized and abandoned the Five Clinging-Aggregates. The Five Clinging-Aggregates describe the ongoing personal experience of stress that follows from ignorance of Four Noble Truths.

This second talk and our Sangha discussion is on The Paticca-Samuppada Sutta. This sutta teaches that the pervasive human condition of ignorance is the cause of all manner of greed, aversion, and ongoing deluded thinking. Everything the Buddha taught was taught in the context of Dependent Origination and Four Noble Truths.
