Day 9 Aug 19,2022 ’Power of Generosity’ MN 142 Aug Retreat w/ David Johnson

Day 9 Aug 19, 2022 MN 142 and various suttas from the AN and the fives

The basic talk is the 'Exposition of the Offerings' which is given to explain the Karmic and other benefits of Dana or Generosity. Other suttas are quoted. And some personal anecdotes. "If you give then don't stop there, give again and again." If you know the benefit of giving there wouldn't be a meal that you would not share.

This talk is part of a retreat taught by Delson Armstrong from Aug 11-21, 2022. The practice is TWIM or Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation with the object of Lovingkindness or Metta. Practicing in this way is based on the earliest Buddhist Suttas, and leads to the ultimate supra-mundane state, Nibbana.
