Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
This is one part of a study program that delves into the Sekha-pāṭipada Sutta (MN53) – Venerable Ānanda’s Discourse on the Trainee’s Mode of Progress, which has been broken into different episodes.  
This study program began in October 2020 with a specific meditation group and is still ongoing.
This episode looks at how we can develop the accomplishment of Consummate in Virtue (sīlasampanno), as one of the 15 accomplishments in conduct (caraṇasampanno)
We examine:

the explanations provided by Venerable Ānanda in the Sekha-pāṭipada Sutta
other useful suttas to give us additional help to understand the teaching
where the bar is set for the 'adept' and how to develop this quality as trainees towards the goal
practical tips for progress, taking into account responsibilities and challenges of lay life
useful meditations to help us further develop these accomplishments in conduct

Some of the suttas referenced directly or indirectly in this session: 

— Vatthūpama Sutta (MN 7)
