MN 4 Fear and
Dread - Bhayabherava
Sutta
The Buddha explains to a
brahmin what is needed
to practice alone in the
jungle without fear and
dread, beginning with
overcoming the five
hindrances. He then goes
on to describe his own
experience of conquering
fear when striving for
enlightenment. He
entered into the four
jhānas and on three
watches of the night
attained the three
knowledges: the
recollection of his past
lives, the passing away
and reappearance of
beings (according to
their actions), and the Four Noble Truths.

MN 10 The Foundations of
Mindfulness - Satipaṭṭhāna
Sutta
This is
the most important
discourse by the Buddha
on the training of
mindfulness meditation,
with particular
attention given to
developing insight. The
Buddha
begins by declaring that
the four foundations of
mindfulness are the
direct
path leading to the
realization of Nibbāna.
He then gives detailed
instructions on the four
foundations: the
contemplation of the
body, feelings,
mind, and mind objects. |

The Greater Discourse on the Lion’s Roar - Mahāsīhanādada Sutta
In this discourse, the
Buddha talks about his

austerities.

The Honeyball
- Madhupiṇḍika
Suta
This is an important
discourse on papañca.
Papañca is the
proliferation and
projection of mind that
emerges from the process
of cognition, and gives
rise to perceptions and
notions that overwhelm
and victimize a person.
After the Buddha has
finished speaking, Ven.
Mahā Kaccāna gives the
detailed meaning.

19 Two Kinds of Thought - Dvedhāvitakka
Sutta
The Buddha divides thought into two classes: thoughts of sensual desire, ill will
and cruelty; and thoughts of renunciation, non-ill
will (mettā) and noncruelty
(karuṇā). This discourse states simply that unwholesome thought bring about
unhappiness, and wholesome thoughts bring about happiness. Unwholesome
thoughts can be replaced by wholesome thoughts (and, even better, a quiet,
collected mind). Knowing this, we can bring about happiness and freedom
from pain.
