Numerical Discourses Of Tipitaka


Exposition of Suttasa in the Anguttara Nikaya of Tipitaka by the Teachers of Bodhiyana Manastery Western Australia. The Anguttara Nikaya, the fourth division of the Sutta Pitaka, consists of several thousand suttas arranged in eleven books (nipatas) according to numerical content. At first glance this may seem a rather pedantic classification scheme, but in fact it often proves quite useful. For example, if you dimly recall having heard something about the five subjects worthy of daily contemplation and you'd like to track down the original passage in the Canon, a good place to begin your search is the Book of the Fives in the Anguttara Nikaya.  Study Guide to the Anguttara Nikaya
