These audios are recorded Skype calls with Dhammarato and friends.
The Buddhist Religion has been prepared for a mass audience. The Supra-mundane Dhamma of the Buddha is best taught in a private setting where the spiritual friends can assist the students in correct understanding by way of question and answers, sutta comparisons, and instruction on correct practice that will lead to your joy, well being, and happiness for a long time.
This Podcast has been started with the permission and full knowledge of Bhikkhu Achan Pho, abbot emeritus, Wat Shan Mokkh, Chai-ya Thailand, Home of Bhikkhu Buddhadasa. While there are many websites dedicated to Bhikkhu Buddhadasa, this site will focus on the Supra-mundane, including and starting with Supra-mundane right view, a view that is noble and investigation oriented, rather than belief oriented.
