I respect Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi very much but I'm worried about his fear on relaying the fact the a Buddha has to be a man. In his freight he forgets that all beings have been a man or a women at one point, so therefore our current gender doesn't mean anything because it is temporary. What is important is that a man or a woman both have the opportunity to become a Buddha. His fear has him reinterpret the commentary which is unnecessary in my opinion.

Isn't what is perceiving non-self actually a self?

🙏 🙏🙏 Thank you!!!

Thank you, Bhante. Sadhu, sadhu, sadhu.

Namarupa is the ongoing creation of the universe. Avoid thinking linear.

Dear sir, could you please discuss the venerable Nandaka, Nandaka sutta and his earlier past lives, that led him to be e monk ? what were his weaknesses as a lay person? how did he overcome them?

47:27 Nonself, seeing failure as non self, seeing physical suffering as merely physical without adding a seconda arrow with mental clinging and elaboration remove false idea of self, me mine but to see clearly it's the causes and conditions that brought about the situation

Thank you so very much!❤🙏🏼☸️

I don't see why one couldn't just do this as a meditation without having to be an expert in attainments.

brilliant answer to how do 3 characteristics relate to the 4 Noble truths!

The Tibetan Mahayana Kadam lineage talks about mundane and supramundane paths.

❤ May you be happy and well 🙏🙏🙏

I understand the entire working of kamma and birth in great detail😊😊😊how and why??? Also answer to question on it in last lecture but right now not interested in answering or explaining as it's like you do popat(banana) later by explaining Same thing in lecture ahead... Be Happy😊😊😊as I'm

Great in 4th lecture when I was explaining about Upekha it was balanced Mind that time it was seen inappropriate now here it makes sense that I was right and missing link also covered (if it was covered there only no confusion has been created when I was asking what about than feeling of happiness and rapture) --- clear comprehension ever time is needed (here you made clear feeling means vedana which was my whole point neways now its okay)

Sometimes silence is important even if you know the answer about Sati complete understanding ... Be Happy 😊😊😊as I say people get offended and its better enjoy my own learning

Many misunderstandings 😊😊😊see one more point I can give that robber and girlfriend example is also wrong you cannot compare sense pleasure with Jhana... Let it be I cannot explain everything (rest I don't want to share my real experiences or glimpse of understanding also) and it seems you have practiced little meditation 😊😊😊 No offense Be Happy

Where you missed is that in first jhana only five factors are there initial thought, sustain thought, joy, happiness, concentration so here at start no equanimity comes but actually in fourth jhana only equanimity comes that means it is getting replaced... (Not to mix ) still your and ledi sayadaw commentary missed something which I don't think should be told... 😊😊😊 Be happy someday when I feel like sharing than I will tell

Sir you again missed in Jhana Factor when you said "Somanssa -- pleasant feeling" and later you are saying "Upekha --- not equanimity of balance mind but neutral feeling not pleasure or other way round" So if upekha is balanced feeling than what is pleasant feeling doing in jhana Factor No offense but you completely misunderstood and contradictory statement... Also once you go through meditation you will realize... Let it be continue the knowledge you have I don't have issues... Be happy😊😊😊

Sir you again missed understanding of delusion and ignorance no offense just telling where you went wrong 😊😊😊be happy

No offense goal is clear learning and helping other do same

After listening entire lecture I got Very Good explanation Sir only at some point I found missing things which need to be rectified and also which not according to my meditation experience

Sadhu🙏
