Has anyone been able to find them? I had a look around, but no luck so far…
I have not either. It’s not on dhammanet YouTube nor on the podcast. I googled but no luck.
I attended several of the classes. They were great, but there was quite a bit of discussion that probably wouldn’t have recorded well. The editing could be quite arduous.
@Deepika, do you know if there are plans to share some video?
So sorry for the lateness in responding and for not visiting this forum until now.
We like to take a little break before launching the next series, presenters will be Bhante Sujato and Venerable S.Dhammika. Full content will be published soon.
We will endeavour to make the some comments from the discussions from previous courses available soon, there are no plans to publish the full discussion at this stage.
Dhammapada course was given during Vassa 2019, it was 6 days of contact (9am to 4pm each day), Content was presented online and discourse, there were brainstorming sessions, discussions, individual presentations by students and group meditation. As you can appreciate to make the content meaningful we have to work on the recordings a fair bit. We hope to publish it before the begining of Vassa 2020. We discussed following chapters, Discussions were based on Literal, Moral, Metaphorical and Transcendental vies of the same.

Thank you for checking on it.
Anjali Bhante, we are reading one verse/day at Dhammadharini Monastery, no up to Iti62. I appreciate your comments on the value (or non-value) of the commentary, since some readers do not have access to it.
Doing the editing will be a huge job and I reckon that, after all the events you’ve organised and hosted recently, you and Damith deserve a good rest.
Sadhu for what you have been doing at DhammaNet.
Ok! Thank you for everything!
Oh really, that sounds fun!
I am hoping to get back to translating it very soon, but have been fully occupied with extensive work on the Pali files.
Thank you so much, dear Bhante Sujato! Looking forward to joining in:upside_down_face:! Last time I did not succeed…
I would be very interested in how to use Itivuttaka in daily practice not only meditation.
As I am also based in a different time zone I would be thankful for recording.
Metta, Esther
Looking forward to it!
Mega metta,

Enrolment is essential to join the discussion forum.
Participants will receive a weekly reminder with a ZOOM link.
Nice! I’m enrolling. I would really like to participate. I will see if I can make it, it makes Friday midnight in my timezone (CET) Let’s see…
Registered and looking forward to attending the course.
Big thank you for organizing it.
With the Visuddhimagga course, I am unable to attend the live discussion because of a different timezone.
I’m not able to make the times of the discussions for the next two courses either. I plan to open a Forum thread for each of them and invite those who are able to attend to share a bit of what they find interesting in the discussions.
The first lesson was announced for yesterday, but I can’t see it. Has it been delayed, or is there a problem with my browser?
Thanks for organizing the course!
No, I delayed it due to overwork; I have been super-busy with SC work in the past weeks. But I am preparing to record right now!
FYI, the first course/video is now accessible on the platform.
And FYFI I have started discussion threads for each of the courses here, with links to the enrolment page and to the videos on YouTube:
