Sometimes in Dharma talks we hear teachers refer to a “sutta,” to the “Pali canon,” or to “what the Buddha said.” What are they referring to? How can we find such texts ourselves? In this three-part course we’ll explore the three baskets (tipitaka) of the Pali Canon, with particular attention to the collections containing suttas (discourses). The class includes reading and discussion, along with suggestions for ways to bring the texts and the teachings they contain into practice. Each session includes meditation and small-group interaction. This class is suitable for people new to the Pali Canon as well as those more familiar with it; no knowledge of Pali is required.
