Description

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
This is the fourth module in the Youth Dhamma Gradual Teachings series, focused on our younger audience looking into BUDDHA'S GRADUAL INSTRUCTIONS TO LAY PEOPLE ON DANGER IN SENSUAL PLEASURES (kāmānaṁ ādīnavaṁ okāraṁ saṅkilesaṁ) 
This session links with the earlier sessions and confirms the importance of building a foundation of generosity and virtue, and Buddha's teachings on the heavenly realms in order to develop our Path and Practice.  Kamma and Rebirth is a central part of all of these gradual teachings. The next talk in this series will build on top of this and move us further along.  
In this session we look into: 

— What does “kāmānaṁ ādīnavaṁ okāraṁ saṅkilesaṁ” mean? 
— How should sensual pleasures be understood? 
— What are the different types of sensual pleasures? 
— What are the dangers of  sensual pleasures ? 
— Buddha’s similes for sensual pleasures  
— What are some of the skilful things we can do? 
— Sensual pleasures, desire and rebirth (importance of path and fruit)
