This is a live stream and recording of our Tuesday evening Dhamma class from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey on January 23,  2018. The stream begins every Tuesday at 7:15 PM Eastern US time.

This is the week three class of our 2018 12-week Dhamma study based on my book The Truth Of Happiness. This class is on Four Noble Truths. The Truth Of Happiness book clearly explains the foundational teachings of the Buddha for developing a life of lasting peace and happiness.

“Vision arose, discernment arose, insight arose, knowledge arose within me of things never heard of before: The truth of dukkha (stress) has been comprehended; the origination of stress has been abandoned; the cessation of stress has been experienced; The Eightfold Path leading to the cessation of stress has been developed.”  (Samyutta Nikaya 56:11)
