NEW audiobook:
The Requisites of Enlightenment
|
Ven Ledi Sayadaw (1846-1923) was a colossus in the transmission of the Theravada teachings to the modern world. His fame in Burma is legendary as the "father of insight meditation" and the author of hundreds of expositions of Dharma, of which only a few have been translated into English.
The Requisites of Enlightenment was the first of Ledi Sayadaw's books to be published in the West. In this text he explains the bodhipakkiya dhamma or "37 requisites of [or things pertaining to] enlightenment" the Buddha taught.
Pariyatti is grateful to the volunteers who assisted with the creation of it as an audiobook. It is an invaluable addition to those interested in understanding the Buddha’s teaching at a deeper level, while providing the inspiration to continue walking the path to awakening.

Student translating the Ratana Sutra, the "Jewel Discourse," that is chanted by Goenka on the morning of Day 2 during the 10-day Vipassana course. It includes this passage:
"Cessation of defilements, freedom from passion, and the deathless state, the serene Sage of the Shakyas realized these; there is nothing equal to this Dharma. In the Dharma is this precious jewel. By the utterance of this truth, may there be happiness."

Upanīyati jīvitamappamāyu.
Jarūpanītassa na santi tāṇā.
Etaṃ bhayaṃ maraṇe pekkhamāno,
lokāmisaṃ pajahe santipekkho.
Listen
Life is swept along, next-to-nothing its span.
For one swept to old age no shelters exist.
Perceiving this danger in death,
one should drop the world's bait and look for peace.
( Saṃyutta Nikāya 1.100)
Translated from the Pali by Ven. Thanissaro Bhikkhu
