Most Ven. U. Dhammajiva Maha Thero started a 10 days residential retreat in English at Mitirigala Nissaranavanaya Monastery towards end of Sept 2018. The retreat was based on Dasuttara Sutta.

Dasuttara Sutta is the 34th or the last Sutta of Digha Nikaya preached by the Chief Disciple Most Ven. Sariputta at the Gaggarāpokkharani in Campā, in the presence of the Lord Buddha. It is said that at the end of the discourse five hundred monks became Arahants.

The Sutta consists of groups of doctrines – ten single doctrines, ten twofold doctrines, and so on up to ten tenfold. The Sutta is mentioned as describing the pārisuddhipadhāniyanga.
