— Timestamp —
00:00 Mettā Lab - Mettā Q&A - 8 June 2024
05:11 Session begins
10:20 Short meditation - Karaṇīyametta Sutta
20:59 Mettā Q&A
21:07 What meditations would you recommend to prepare the mind for loving kindness?
29:01 What should I do if my mind wanders off while I am taking my own example?
32:46 What's the best way to teach my children Buddha's loving kindness? Do they have to be a certain age to understand?
39:34 Do you have any advice on how to overcome grudges as part of developing mettā?
55:53 Can I spread loving kindness to a relative or friend who has passed away?
58:36 Can you comment on the flow of how we're supposed to develop this Karaṇīyametta Sutta? How much time developing the qualities and then spreading loving kindness?
1:01:59 When we develop mettā using this method (Karaṇīyametta Sutta) is it linked to the jhānas?
1:09:00 First Doorway to Nibbāna - context and overview
1:35:58 Sharing the merit and blessings
The focus is on developing *supramundane* loving kindness in accordance with the Buddha's teachings in the Pali Canon.
(1) We will begin with the Buddha's instructions on how to develop mettā in the Karaṇīyametta Sutta (Snp 1.8)
(2) Then we will develop the First Doorway to Nibbana or Painful Practice with Slow Realisation which culminates in immeasurable mettā, based on the Asubha Sutta (AN 4.163) and Suttavebhaṅgiya (Pe 9). It also draws on what we learn in the Karaṇīyametta Sutta (Snp 1.8)
(3) Then we will develop mettā with the seven enlightenment factors (bojjhangas), based on the Mettāsahagata Sutta (SN 46.54), which distinguishes the Buddha's teaching of mettā from all others. And liberation of mind by loving kindness (mettācetovimutti)
These are purposely "slow sessions" to gradually learn (or revise), develop and practise each step of these sutta meditations. Each session will be 1 to 1.5 hours duration. And during the session there will be short meditation periods. It may take a few weeks to complete each sutta meditation.
Mettā Lab is for beginners and meditators who wish to refresh and deepen their loving kindness practice. Everyone is welcome.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
This unique Dhamma session was held over Vesak via zoom on "DISPELLING BUDDHIST MYTHS". In this session, we tackled about 6 common Buddhist myths, though we had a longer list of Buddhist myths.
One of our kalyanamittas was keen to have an interactive and fun session during Vesak to debunk or dispel some of the common Buddhist myths that exist, particularly in Buddhist countries.
As always, take what is useful.
— TIMESTAMPS —00:00 Dispelling Buddhist Myths01:25 Introduction05:09 Buddhist myth 01 - Only the wealthy can make merit16:05 Buddhist myth 02 - Buddha only taught Dhamma to monastic disciples and not lay people35:35 Buddhist myth 03 - Lay people cannot attain path and fruit49:43 Buddhist myth 04 - Buddhism is for those worried about life after death, and irrelevant to wellbeing in the present1:02:59 Buddhist myth 05 - Buddhism is not for the youth, you have to wait till your hair turns grey1:17:18 Buddhist myth 06 - A child's interest in Dhamma should not be encouraged as they will lose interest in life1:34:16 Sharing of merit and blessings
Much merit (bohoma pin) for the invitation to be part of this session, coming up with our initial list of Buddhist myths and helping to facilitate this session for the benefit of others.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast
Updated on 5 June 2024 for extended version to include Q&A
This is the guided meditation, Dhamma talk and Q&A with Metta Centre (SYD) on "The Mastery of Buddha's Instructions - How it leads to noble attainment and freedom from suffering". This session was conducted via zoom.
— TIMESTAMPS —00:00 The Mastery of Buddha's Instructions
04:47 Guided meditation on loving kindness based on Karaṇīyametta Sutta
24:35 Dhamma talk on the Mastery of Buddha's Instructions
53:32 Q&A
1:30:39 Sharing of merit and blessings
The Buddha praised the mastery of instruction over the mastery of psychic power and the mastery of telepathy because it leads to noble attainment and culminates in complete liberation. Lay people received gradual instructions from the Buddha and attained the fruit of stream entry and more.
Now more than 2,500 years after the parinibbāna of the Buddha, if we have faith or conviction in the Buddha, incline towards understanding the Buddha’s gradual instructions and diligently practice in accordance with them, we can still expect wonderful results.
In this Dhamma session we will examine the Buddha’s gradual instructions from the Pali Canon and why they are so valuable and powerful.
Blessings of the Triple Gem. Theruwan saranai

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
We continue our Profitable Perceptions Series with Part VI: Perception of impermanence (aniccasaññā) explained in the Dutiyasaññā Sutta (AN 7.49).
* Please note this is part of an insight pathway we develop by applying this particular sequence of profitable perceptions from the Buddha. So how we develop the perception of impermanence is finely tuned to what we have already developed in the earlier profitable perceptions, as well as how it is framed with the mind shrinking away from gain, honour and praise.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
This question "Why does Buddhism talk so much about suffering?" is often asked by people who are not-so familiar with the Buddha's teachings and also people who are practising the Buddha's teachings and wish to help people who ask them this question. This was a recent offering to a kalyanamitta that might be of benefit to others. Wishing you well.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
In this Dhamma session, we wisely contemplate in a progressive way,
wholesome and unwholesome states (Kusala Sutta), blameable and blameless states (Sāvajja Sutta), inferior and superior states (Cūḷakammavibhaṅga Sutta), and dark and bright states with their counterparts (Chaḷabhijāti Sutta)referencing key teachings of the Buddha, to deepen our understanding of kamma. This will also enable us to grow in wisdom and deepen our understanding of wrong view and right view, and more importantly, we’ll be nourishing the right view that is “noble, taintless, supramundane, a factor of the path”.
