(Click on the above link, or here, for audio.)

Part III of extended commentary on the Sundarika Bharadvaja Sutta, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu -- with comparison between Theravadan Pali Buddha-Dhamma and some Brahman principles of theory & practice.

NOTE: "SnA" (as a basis for sutta commentary) was mistakenly identified as "Samyutta Nikaya Atthakatha" -- when in fact it should correctly refer to: Suttanipāta Aṭṭhakathā.

Gautama's teaching on the importance of proper conduct vs. birth-caste, core path-views, and the essentials of complete release as final evolutionary goal. Additional teachings from Advaita Vedanta and the Ra Material.
