00:00:00 Āsava (discharge from a sore) and kilesa (obstacle, fetter); wise attention (seeing) is the solution

00:05:59 Seven ways of giving up āsava: seeing, restraint, using, enduring, avoiding, dispelling, developing

00:07:11 Ignorance skews our attention; the second noble truth; past and future; self

00:37:23 The things right in front of you are the things fit for attention: this is dukkha, its origin, its cessation, the way leading to cessation

00:44:40 Three fetters are abandoned through wise attention 1) personality view 2) doubt about what is and is not the path 3) doing what we’re told to do

01:15:01 The sotāpan: path and fruit

01:22:49 Restraining the senses: choosing the wholesome

01:28:59 Using: the four requisites

01:40:07 Enduring: good opportunities for practice; patience

01:46:58 Avoiding dangerous things

01:51:54 Dispelling, removing, investigation

01:55:19 Developing sati; unremitting; the seven factors of enlightenment are the noble eightfold path; right noble unification of mind with its supports and features

02:00:39 A doable path
