Ajahn Pasanno read and commented on chapter 15, “Practices and Perspectives III” (from the third part, “Cultivation and Fruition”) on March 18, 2025, during the Winter Retreat at Amaravati Buddhist Monastery in the UK.
Reflections, comments, etc.
07:47–09:13 A Tibetan monk expresses appreciation for Ajahn Chah’s 1979 visit to Manjurshri Institute.
32:45–33:11 It’s wonderful to hear Ajahn Chah’s brutal honesty about what it’s like being a teacher.
44:05–46:56 When I heard that Ajahn Amaro spent two years [not lying down], I was very impressed. But thinking about how Luang Por Sumedho watched Ajahn Amaro do this for two years and then said, ‘Ah, finally you’re stopping!’ Why do you let people make their own experience?
07:47–09:13 Comparing the diversity of expression in the Six Sets of Six (MN 148) to the Mahāgosiṅga Sutta (MN 32).
53:22–54:21 [This discussion of ‘Nibbāna is the cessation of becoming’ (AN 10.7)] reminds me of the last testament of a well-known teacher: “Rest in purity and evenness and do something for the benefit of others.”
The post Chapter 15 – Practices and Perspectives III (part 2) appeared first on Amaravati Buddhist Monastery.
