This is a peer-group discussion on a discourse from the Pāli Canon. The group will read the sutta together, rotating with each person present reading a small section, followed by reflection and discussion.  It is recommended that participants try to read one or more translations of the sutta beforehand. 
 
This Sunday, the group will look at two closely-linked suttas – SN 22.71 Rādha and SN 22.59 Anattalakkhaṇa – which discuss the aggregates and characteristics of not-self. You can find links to translations are here: SuttaCentral and here: SuttaCentral.
