Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
Youth Edition of the Parābhava Sutta as requested.  
Slightly different perspective on the Buddha's teaching on "what brings downfall to a person" for our younger audience. For the younger generation there is an opportunity to pre-empt and prevent downfall by making wise choices once the Buddha's teaching is understood.  
What's really important is to contemplate the 12 actions or qualities explained by the Buddha to truly connect with this teaching.
Generosity, virtue (keeping precepts), abandoning the mental stains and developing wholesome actions by body, speech and mind are really important towards success, rather than failure (in this lifetime and beyond).
