This is a recording of our Tuesday evening Dhamma class from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey on October 14 2019.
This Tuesday’s class is class 16 of 32 classes of our structured study of vipassana - introspective insight into Anicca, Anatta, and Dukkha. Past talks are linked below.
This Tuesday’s Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is the second of two talks on the Maha-Dukkhakkhandha Sutta. In the Maha-Dukkhakkhandha Sutta the Buddha teaches that developing the profound and liberating understanding of the true nature of individual contribution to stress and suffering – Dukkha – is the distinguishing factor between his Dhamma and common “spiritual” disciplines of his time.
“Friends, when wanderers of other sects say this you should ask them ‘What is the allure, the drawback, and the release with regard to sensuality? What is the allure, the drawback, and the release with regard to forms? What is the allure, the drawback, and the release with regard to feelings?…” (Maha-Dukkhakkhandha Sutta)
Each Saturday class will have a thirty-minute Jhana meditation followed by my Dhamma talk and Sangha discussion and conclude with an offering of Metta.
My talks and classes can be joined live:
