Ven. Panadure Chandaratana Thero commenced a new series of Dhamma Sermons in English based on Anapanasati Sutta at Kalalgoda Vipassana Center in 18 January 2019.
The Ven. Thero conducts a monthly 3 days residential retreat in English at this meditation center located near Thalawathugoda. This Center has residential facilities for about 40 retreants. These retreats will vastly benefit the yogis who wish to attend residential retreats conducted in English, close to Colombo.
Anapanasati Sutta is one of the most important sutta discourses of Lord Buddha. It is a discourse on the proper application of Sati (Mindfulness) in the development of Concentration (Samatha) and Wisdom (Vipassana).
Given here is a link to the web page on the Sutta from accesstoinsight.org;
Anapanasati Sutta: Mindfulness of Breathing
Those who wish to attend the residential retreats have to contact Ms. Dilhara Fernando. Her contact details are as follows;

The next program will be held from 30th April – 03rd May 2019.

Anapanasati Sutta at Kalalgoda Vipassana Center completed.
I have just finished listening to the dhamma talks 1-6. At the end of the 6th talk, Ven Chandaratana indicated there would be further talks on developing the enlightenment factors with the remaining tetrads. Are these talks available to download?
The following teachings are available for download. These were started as Sutta teachings in English using Zoom sessions. https://damsara.org/dhamma-talks-in-english/ven-panadure-chandaratana-thero/sutta_teachings_in_english/
