Buddhism - Introductory series
The Mangala Sutta - A four week study
The Mangala Sutta, found within the Suttanipata, is a popular and seminal text from the early Buddhist canon. It's form is a dialogue in verse between the Buddha and a visiting deity who asks the Buddha to tell of the best conditions (Mangalas) for the leading of a human and spiritual life. In his reply the Buddha outlines in eleven inspiring verses 32 progressive mangalas that lead from the basic to the sublime - one Path within one poem.
This is a four week introductory course that is suitable for both newcomers and those with some experience. It will be led by Buddhadasa who currently lives in Melbourne and will be visiting and teaching at the Auckland Buddhist Centre over a two month period.
