Cross River Meditation Center Podcast
Religion & Spirituality:Buddhism
This is a live stream and recording of our Tuesday evening Dhamma class from Cross River Meditation Center in Frenchtown, New Jersey on December 12 , 2017. The stream begins every Tuesday at 7:15 PM Eastern US time.
This talk is the first of a series of talks on the Anapanasati Sutta. The Anapanasati Sutta is a discourse from the Buddha on the proper use of mindfulness during Shamatha-Vipassana meditation to deepen concentration. The underlying and supportive theme for this sutta is a group of senior monks well-established in the “Heartwood Of The Dhamma” - the Eightfold Path - and their ability to teach a useful and effective Dhamma.
"In this community of monks there are monks who are arahants. Arahants are awakened human beings who have fully developed the Eightfold Path and whose mental effluents are ended. These arahants have completed the task and have laid down the burden (of continued I-making, maintaining Anatta). They have attained the true goal and abandoned the fetter of becoming (further ignorant). They are released through Right Understanding. Such is this community of monks.

Each Tuesday class will have a twenty-minute Shamatha-Vipassana meditation followed by my Dhamma talk and Sangha discussion and conclude with Metta intentional meditation.
