WHAT BRINGS DOWNFALL?

from Sutta Meditation Series · host Sutta Meditation Series

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.In this Dhamma session we examine the Buddha's teaching to the devas on "what brings downfall to a person?" from the Parābhava Sutta  (Snp 1.6). The Buddha outlines 12 actions or qualities that cause downfall or decline. Due to these factors a person cannot make progress of succeed.  This session focuses primarily on the worldly or mundane perspective of the Buddha's teaching. As the world spins further into decline, we need to ask the question whether we wish to decline with the world. In another session we'll examine the supramundane perspective, how this affects spiritual progress, and link some of the important Dhammas.  Suttas that are mentioned directly or indirectly in this session: — Anusota Sutta (AN 4.5) — Sukhasomanassa Sutta (AN 6.78)  — Dhammānudhammapaṭipanna Sutta (Iti 86)  — Parihāna Sutta (Iti 79)  — Anumana Sutta (MN 15) — Vatthūpama Sutta (MN 7) — Tayodhamma Sutta (AN 10.76) — Pasenadikosala Vatthu (Dhp 325)  — Cūḷakammavibhaṅga Sutta (MN135)  — Duccaritavipāka Sutta (AN 8.40)  — Samacittavagga (AN 2.32)  — Brahma Sutta (AN 4.64)  — Dutiyaagārava Sutta (AN 5.10) — Jigucchitabba Sutta (AN 3.27) — Siṅgālovāda Sutta (DN 31) — Ādiya Sutta (AN 5.41)  — Sappurisadāna Sutta (AN 5.148)  — Mahāsupina Jātaka (Ja 77) — Vatapada Sutta (SN 11.11) — Dīghajāṇu Sutta (AN 8.54)  — Niraya Sutta (AN 4.64) — Kula Sutta (AN 4.258) — Khattiya Sutta (AN 6.52)Bohoma pin to the person that requested this Dhamma talk.A VIDEO of this FULL SESSION with presentation slides has been published to the Sutta Meditation Series YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-cVz-mwW8gBlessings of the Triple Gem.
