Pubbeva Sambodha Sutta at Nissaranavanaya Monastery

Boudhanath Stupa at the birthplace of Buddha, Nepal is one of the largest Stupas in the world.

Pubbeva Sambodha Sutta was the focus of Dhamma sermons during the 127th residential retreat at Nissaranavanaya Forest Monastery. This four days retreat was conducted by Ven. Panadure Chandaratana Thero during mid September 2016.

The name, Pubbeva Sambodha was given to the Sutta more recently at the Chatta Sanghayana held in Burma during 1956. The sutta is not given a name in the Buddha Jayanthi Tripitaka and it is the first Sutta of Sambodhi Vagga of Tika Nipatha, Anguttara Nikaya.
