This is a recording of our Tuesday evening Dhamma class from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey on September 17,  2019. The live-stream begins every Tuesday at 7:15 PM Eastern US time.

This Tuesday’s class is class 10 of 32 classes of our structured study of vipassana - introspective insight into Anicca, Anatta, and Dukkha. Past talks are linked below. My Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is on the Dhatu-Vubhanga Sutta. This sutta shows the Buddha’s view on the complete and impersonal ordinariness of human life. The objects of life that are constantly personalized though self-identification are shown to be common, fleeting, and having no substance worth self-identification.

“Through refined mindfulness, one understands that with the cessation (of self-identification) of that very sensory contact the feeling of pain has arisen independently of that contact. What is to be felt as pain ceases– is stilled.…” (Dhatu-Vibhanga Sutta)
