Listen "The Residual Conceit 'I am' ~ Khemakasutta ~ Pali Buddhist Teachings"
Episode Synopsis
A reading of the Khemaka Sutta from the Saṁyutta Nikāya - Connected Discourses on the Aggregates SN22.89. Translated by Bhikkhu BodhiKhemaka's teaching clarifies that a noble one (in his case a non-returner or anāgāmi) can still have a sense of "I am" without identifying with the aggregates. He explains that he has let go of the lower fetters, but the notion of self still exists. However, he no longer regards any of the aggregates as "this I am".🙏 May whatever goodness arises from these readings/offerings be for the benefit of all sentient beings.🔆 These podcasts are not monetized.
