The Gradual Training - Faring Step by Step on the Buddha's Path
Presented by Phra Bryan, American Buddhist monk
Many people are introduced to Buddhist practice through meditation classes, or core teachings like the Four Noble Truths and Eightfold Path. The Gradual Training is a less known, but incredibly practical approach given by the Buddha to train a person from the very beginning to the attainment of full enlightenment. This basic presentation aims to share an overview of this wonderful training for those interested in fuller development of their Dhamma practice.
