Reflections on Four Noble Truths and Eightfold Path | Ajahn Dhammasiha

Dhammagiri Buddhist Podcasts - A podcast by Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage

After the meditation session on Āsāḷhā Pūjā, Ajahn Dhammasiha shares some reflections on the 4 Noble Truths. He puts special emphasis on the Fourth Noble Truth, i.e. the Noble Eightfold Path, also known as the 'Middle Way' ('Majjhimā Paṭipadā'). With the Noble Eightfold Path, the Buddha has given us a tool that we can apply virtually any time throughout our life, whether ordained or in lay life. Meditation ('Bhāvanā') is not only sitting crosslegged. We practice 'bhāvanā', mental cultivation, whenever we're putting forth effort to apply any of these 8 path factors: Right View/Opinion/Conviction Right Intention/Thought Right Speech/Communication Right Action Right Livelihood/Job Right Effort Right Mindfulness Right Samādhī https://www.dhammagiri.net https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJINt0JJBfFm_x0FZcU9QJw https://tinyletter.com/dhammagiri/archive .
