Description
Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
Another session to accompany the third module in the Youth Dhamma Gradual Teachings series looking into Buddha's Gradual Instructions to Lay People on HEAVENLY REALMS (saggakathaṁ).
In this additional session, we look into the Buddha's teachings on THE MIND IS THE FORERUNNER, THE LEADER to help us understand what drives kamma, and to address some questions around what happens if we do something unknowingly that is unwholesome.
In this short session we examine:
— what leads and controls
— what arises first
— a simplifed version of the teaching in volition, making plans and tendencies (habits)
— the story of Cakkhupāla Thera
— the story of Maṭṭhakuṇḍalī
— the question of whether we need to rein in the mind from everything
Some of the suttas that are mentioned directly or indirectly in this session:
— Citta Sutta (SN 1.62)
— Accharāsaṅghātavagga (SN 1.56-57)
— Cetanā Sutta (SN 12.38)
— Cakkhupālatthera Vatthu (Dhp 1)
— Maṭṭhakuṇḍalī Vatthu (Dhp 2)
— Manonivāraṇa Sutta (SN 1.27)
— Vatthūpama Sutta (MN 7)
— Karaṇīyametta Sutta (Sn 1.8)
