Upanisad were crration of far later periods. These upanishad are mere translation of pali cannon into Sanskrit only. These so called brahmins are enemy of Buddhism from beginning

Thank you very much for your effort to create this Chanel. Thank you very much Ajahn Sujato.

Thank you Ajahn and Sati Center

Thank you for offering this practice. I'm curious to know if there are any discourses within the Pali canon in which the Buddha teaches this approach to modifying the breath, rather than being mindful of it as it is. In my experience, the instruction regarding the breath is usually to simply be with it as it is, and there is often an explicit injunction to not modify the breath, as "mindfulness is not a breathing exercise like prana yoga," etc. One observation from doing this guided practice is that after performing the steps in one area and then moving to the next, when one now modifies the pattern of breathing according to what feels best in that area, it negates the pattern of breath that was established in the previous body area. So I'm a bit cloudy as to the purpose of this element of the practice, other than the progressive establishment of embodied mindfulness, as with any "body scan". Is that the idea - to add this as a further grounding and deepening step incorporated into body scan, or is there another (possibly sutta-based) basis for this approach? Thank you.

Thank you Bhante. Wonderful sutta. Looking forward to next one. 🙏🙏🙏

Very nice Dhamma talk. Thank you.

Ajahn sujato is a racist and hypocrite. Had a bad experience with this guy and his moderators on his sutta central forum. He really is a bad person and so are his moderators.

Sadhu sadhu sadhu....love your talks 🙏

Oop iop I pi pl pi

Abhidhamma Pitaka contains the core and fundamental teachings of the Buddha, and it shows ultimate truths.

The thoughts on suicide are really radical for western society. Good for him.

Very insightful talk. I wonder if you have balance of theory and practice… What is your main meditative practice? Mahasi? Goenka? Samatha and Anapanasati alone? Thai forest tradition?

Found this.. Because I heard as I was waking up, “crossing the far shore”.

Sadhu sadhu sadhu......thank you bhante 🙏🙏🙏

this is awesome ! thanks Sati Center ❤

Ive thought a lot about the thing how if there is no self then what gets reborn question. ive heard ajahn brahm and you talk about it. would another way to say whats going on with that be that because of the delusion of a self, and attachment to a self is the reason why you get reborn at all? i feel like i bet both of you have already said this before but my attachment to a self caused me to forget.

Brave Brahmali told the Silicone Valleyites to drop their goals.

Women in the USA still do not have ERA in place. Fighting for longer than 2500 years. But the Buddha did relent and let it all play out.

Previous comment should read that women’s life traditionally in that culture and in many to this very day were seen as meaningless unless married. Women were not particularly safe even in the their families or their marriages, so living under a tree in the forest meditating may not have been very physically safe. Of course there was and is mysogeny but do think the declining of women joining the monastics was because the Buddha was mysogenistic but because the culture for women was unsafe. They would have needed as requisites pepper spray, whistles. Given how people saw unmarried women it would be a wonder if they were given alms food.

Women have been vulnerable physically for far longer than Buddhas existence. Buddhists Monks lived solitary often meditating alone in the forest. Plus just because one is wearing robes does not mean they are fully enlightened. The Buddha has said that the there is nothing dearer to a man than the sound of a woman’s voice and nothing dearer to a woman than the sound of a man’s voice. Also the near enemy of love is lust. People leave the worldly life to divest themselves of the seductive power of the sensual world. So to put men and women together in a monastic situation, is to very much thicken the plot of monastic life. The Catholics have done it and there are many stories of monks and nuns defrocking to marry. Or not. I had the same reaction to what seemed mysogonism coming from the Buddha. He was extremely lucid and most of the rules of the Viniya were developed as a result of the behavior of the unenlightened monastics. Some people even if wearing robes do not behave with common sense so rules were made. They were not all made at once. I have alway seen the Buddha as looking at human nature as a reason to decline women. Not because women were not capable but men’s reaction to women who not only distract men but put women at risk. It is a culture where women’s lives meaning in their own parents eyes unless they were married. Anyway, I do not think the Buddha was anti woman. He was not in control of everyone’s conditioning. He was wanting to keep complications in the monastic Sangha to a minimum.

Thank you Ayya

The meaning of the name 'Parayana' and related 'ekayana' in satiipatthana around 54 min is wonderful. Linking the name Bavari with Babylon, reminds me of the book 'Buddha in Babylon'.

Thank u

Hello Santikaro, I was lucky that you were in Suan Mokkh, when I arrived in those days - I enjoyed listening to Tan Ajahn talks and your translations - so certainly you benefitted me and many others a lot. I guess the book is not yet available in German? - Never mind I get the Englisch vision. Thanks for your work. Greetings from Germany <3

Really enjoyed this talk. Thank you 👍🙏

I needed this.
