Dhamma Now 2

<p>This book comprises a collection of <strong>summaries and discussions</strong> focused on the <strong>understanding of reality</strong> as taught by the Buddha specifically within the Theravāda tradition. The text explores various aspects of <strong>Dhamma in daily life</strong> drawing from Zoom discussions with Ajahn Sujin Boriharnwanaket and supported by quotes from Buddhist scriptures. Key themes include the <strong>impermanence and non-self nature of all phenomena</strong> (anicca and anattā) the importance of <strong>right understanding (paññā)</strong> over conventional ideas of self or practice and the subtle workings of <strong>consciousness (citta) and mental factors (cetasikas)</strong> in shaping experience and perpetuating suffering (dukkha) through attachment and ignorance. The book's purpose is to assist readers in developing this understanding to <strong>gradually eradicate defilements</strong> and progress towards enlightenment.</p>
