Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.

This is the second Dhamma session on "The Great Dhamma Inquiry" between Venerable Sāriputta and Venerable Mahā Koṭṭhita. This session was conducted via zoom.

Venerable Mahā Koṭṭhita is the questioner (pucchaka) and Venerable Sāriputta is the clarifier (vissajjaka) as they weave through many important areas of Dhamma. At the heart of this teaching is the four noble truths.

In this session we examine a further 11 questions out of 34 in this sutta, covering 4 out of the 11 subject areas. This session mainly focused on existence, first jhana, five faculties and vital formations.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.

This is the Dhamma session on "Developing an Unblemished Mind", which was was conducted via zoom.

We deep-dive into Venerable Sāriputta and Venerable MahāMoggallāna’s teaching in the Anaṅgaṇa Sutta (MN 5).

In this teaching, Venerable Sāriputta spoke of four persons - with and without blemishes and knowing it and not knowing it - explaining which were called inferior and superior using a simile of a bronze dish. He then gives a masterclass on evil, unwholesome wishes associated with anger and bitterness as blemishes, with some powerful similes to help us understand how to develop an unblemished mind.

And Venerable MahāMoggallāna contributes as the questioner to Venerable Sāriputta's clarifier in this teaching, as well as providing a comprehensive summary at the end rejoicing in Venerable Sāriputta's instruction to the bhikkhus.
