Santisukharama April 2020 Quarantine Retreat

Due to the quarantine imposed by the government, some yogis and I are stuck here safe here in Santisukharama. So I decided to speak on topics related to Kamma and Vipaka. More talks (other topics, maybe?) are coming until the quarantine is over. 

Click below for the Dhamma Talks:
1) Kamma and Vipaka
2) Purification of Sila (Morality)
3) Purification of Citta (Mind)

The Zoom app Dhamma Talks (audio only, cleaned) are also there. It begins from 26 Purification of Citta - External Suitabilities to Guard the Meditation Objects delivered on 8 May 2020.
