The teleconference on Saturday, September 12, 2009, 7:00PM-9:00PM (EST), will be moderated and led by Ven. Divuldamane Chandananda Thero of Arizona International Buddhist Meditation Center, AZ, USA

This Dhamma Discussion will be based on Ratthapala Sutta [A two-part story about the monk who, the Lord Buddha said, was foremost among his disciples in ordaining on the power of pure conviction. In the first part of the story, Ratthapala deals with his parents' opposition to his ordaining, and their attempts, after ordination, to lure him back to lay life. In the second part, he recalls the four observations about the world that inspired him, as a healthy and wealthy young man, to ordain in the first place.]
