- Title: Ven Candā: Sutta Discussion Group 18 "Ways to Remove Resentment"
Blurb: Ven Canda teaches from the book, “The Buddha’s Teachings on Social and Communal Harmony” by Bhikkhu Bodhi, the chapter on Anger. In this session, excerpts from three different Suttas from the Anguttara Nikaya, the Numerical Discourses, on the subject of "different ways to overcome resentment" are studied. The first Sutta offers 10 ways of removing resentment through the cultivation of right thought, involving a sense of acceptance and letting go of the urge to control. The interactive discussion explores the role of fear, sadness and resistance to inevitable change as causes for anger and resentment, and how one may let go of this suffering by developing the ability to simply turn away from it through Nibbida. The second Sutta offers 5 sequential ways of removing resentment towards any person. In the discussion, the meaning of Khamma is clarified, emphasising that it is not destiny but just one of the several causes for things to occur, and how one can use the idea of ownership of Khamma as a skillful means to overcome resentment. The third Sutta, through powerful similes, elucidates another 5 ways of removing resentment, 3 of which are discussed here with the remaining 2 to be studied in the next session.

Thank you for your talks… it would be so nice if u could do shorter videos so that people can include it in their daily routine?n
Love to listen more with Venerable Cana but her very Australian voice is kind of hard for me to understand fully Hope I will get better
i am pretty sure she is British. With Metta.
Canda is English.
@@BadgerBotherer1 Thank you, I just need to listen more and more
@@tuyendo7409 To be specific, I think she's from the North-West part of England. Where are you from and what accents do you find easiest to understand? I'm from England but live in Wales, so most British / Australian / American are easy for me.
