John Peacock's "Buddhism Before the Theravada" Part 5 (kind of) - EP6 Dharma PhD
-
- Self-Improvement
Welcome to Dharma PhD!
In this episode we talk about Paṭiccasamuppāda, Dependent Origination, using John Peacocks', "Buddhism Before the Theravada, Part 5" as a jumping off point.
We talk about how Paṭiccasamuppāda, Dependent Origination, has myriad implications. And then we focus on just one implication, causing skillful behaviors and mental/emotinal states to arise by putting the conditions in place that encourage those behaviors/mental states to arise more spontaneously. Particularly we talk about environmental factors.
A few things referred to:
Bodhi College, an organization that teaches Secular Buddhism: bodhi-college.org.
Stephen Batchelor's book After Buddhism.
Leigh Brasington, a Jhāna teacher: leighb.com.
The talk we're referring to: "Buddhism Before the Theravada, Part 5" (https://www.audiodharma.org/talks/2598).
Bhikkhu Bodhi's book Reading the Buddha's Discourses in Pāli.
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: https://bigthink.com/robby-berman/the-missing-apex-of-maslows-hierarchy-could-save-us-all.
The 2,500 word blog post I referred to on a framework for thinking about the different implications of Paṭiccasamuppāda: https://dharmaphd.com/2021/09/27/parsing-pa%e1%b9%adiccasamuppada/.
and finally, Alain de Botton's book: Religion for Atheists.
