My Tuesday live-streamed Dhamma talk and our sangha discussion is on the Samadhanaga Sutta. Siddhartha Gotama, having mastered these fabricated common meditation techniques, he immediately dismissed them as they “do not lead to disenchantment, to dispassion, to cessation, to stilling, to direct knowledge, to self-awakening, or to unbinding.

“And what is Five-Factored Noble Concentration?”
“A follower of the Noble Eightfold Path is quite secluded from sensuality and other unskillful mental qualities. They enter and remain in the First Jhana. This First Jhana is experienced as rapture, born of that very seclusion. It is accompanied by directed thought and evaluation. The joy of seclusion permeates their entire mind and body...”
