Reading the Suttas together Summer 2023-2024

Reading the Suttas together Summer 2023-2024

Join us as we read teachings of the Buddha from the Tripitika in English

Make yourself comfortable in the space of your own home and join us via Zoom as Ayya Santacari or BSSA’s Padma Chaplin lead discussion on different Suttas each week.   We will discover together, What did the Buddha himself actually say?  by looking at the “Suttas” or teachings which are attributed directly to him. The precious Dhamma, as explained by the Buddha, penetrates deeply into the  mind. These explanations as found in the Suttas are inspiring, uplifting and help us to live happier lives.

The group is suitable for everyone from those who are curious about or new to Buddhism to those who have been practicing Buddhism for many years. There will be opportunity for sharing of personal experiences and discussing how these teachings can be applied to our lives today.
These are free sessions and anyone who is interested may join in for one or all of the sessions
We give thanks to Ayya Santacari and Padma for their devotion and service to the community

You may wish to invite family members to sit with you or just arrive by yourself and a cup of tea. Either way, you will be with a group of like minded Dhamma practioners journeying on the path to liberation.

Although the Buddha lived and taught many people 2600 years ago, his kind messages and wise advices are still relevant to us. Enjoy reading his words, sharing your thoughts and having fun with dhamma friends on Thursday evenings from 6pm,
