MicrophoneThe source of these excellent lectures is Bodhi Monastery, New Jersey, U.S.A. The Venerable Bhikkhu Bodhi currently resides there and has done so for many years. Bhikkhu Bodhi is an eminent scholar in both Theravada Buddhism and the Pali Cannon. He has authored many articles, essays and books, as well as being responsible for the translation of a huge section of the Sutta Pitaka into the English language.

‘The Buddha’s Teaching As It Is’ provides a superb introduction to Theravada Buddhism. Anyone interested in investigating Buddhism from any path, Theravada or Mahayana, will benefit greatly from listening to them. I certainly did, and I had looked into Tibetan Buddhism for a couple of years before I came across them. Continue reading →

MicrophoneAudio is coming to *Dhamma!! I have found a source of public domain Theravada lectures that I plan to make available on this site. The ones I have lined up are by the Venerable Bhikkhu Bodhi, an eminent Buddhist Scholar and Pali expert who is responsible for a mountain of valuable publications.

The audio quality is very poor by todays standards. The only equipment they had back in the early 1980’s was a standard cassette recorder, and it was the master tapes that were used to make copies for distribution, however, once you get used to the 1980’s technology, the lectures are perfectly okay to listen too. After all it is the content that is important, and the series of lectures I will be providing are excellent for the novice Buddhist.

Anyway, I will be working over the next couple of days on how to best present this very valuable material, so until then…

May you all live in Peace.
