The Minor Collection Discourses: Sutta Nipāta (Snp) 1.12 - Muni Sutta: "The Sage," (Recorded on January 26th, 2023).
About this project:
Over the past 30+ years, in my quest to understand the Dhamma, i.e. the Teachings of Lord Buddha, I have dedicated countless hours studying the suttas found in the Pāli Canon of the Theravada Tradition (Words of the Elders), as I sat at the feet of many a great teacher, trying to learn the meaning behind the words, and especially through applying them in life.
Being a Dhamma practitioner means nothing if there is no (relatable) Dhamma available, whether in being read, studied, and in this case, listened to.
To this end, I am dedicating my time and energy to do my small part in retranslating and recording the precious words of Lord Buddha digitally, as I narrate them for posterity, all in a manner that is more coherent to our lives, while focusing on the applicability of the wealth that these discourses hold within them, for each of us to discover.
It is my hope that listeners would be able to taste the beauty of the Dhamma by realizing the life-giving fruits it possesses, through their own daily practice.
This can be done while listening to and understanding the wonderful gems that are the words of Lord Buddha, which have survived the test of time, and still reach us to this day, from nearly 2600 years ago.
Mettācittenā,
Bhikkhu Candana
