Right View - and the story of Sariputta, the Buddha's closest advisor

The discourse on 'Right View' (correct perspective) is a VERY important sutta and is often used as a compulsory study for monks undergoing their monastic education.
RIGHT VIEW (Sammaditthi Sutta) is an unusual sermon because it was brought to us by Sariputta, the Buddha's most trusted advisor, disciple and deputy teacher.
In this dhamma talk by teacher Richard Jones of the London Buddhist Vihara, he begins with the story of how Sariputta's became a monk, and then explains the Buddhist concept of 'right view' with readings from The Discourse on Right View (The Sammaditthi Sutta).
How the four noble truths, dependent origination, and the knowledge that ends mental formations (asavas) all build upon the basic dichotomy between skilful and unskillful action.
