Listen Later

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast. 

This Dhamma talk focuses on the question of WHY WE STRUGGLE TO UNDERSTAND DHAMMA, PRACTICE THE TEACHINGS, AND MAKE PROGRESS ON THE NOBLE EIGHTFOLD PATH. The main sutta that we will be studying is the Anumana Sutta (MN15) - The Discourse on Inference. 

We look into: 

  • Why this teaching is important and the benefits of learning the knowledge pathways Intersecting or supporting suttas to give confidence in this teaching 
  • What obstructs ("duvaco" qualities) vs what supports ("suvaco" qualities) our understanding of Dhamma and making progress 
  • How to infer or conclude on ourselves The importance of regular review How to meditate on this sutta 

    • To read the whole Anumana Sutta: http://www.suttas.com/mn-15-anumana-sutta-inference.html
