Dear Cooran & friends,

Anumodana for your Abhidhamma resources list! I mirrored it onto the German language http://www.dhamma-vinaya.de" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; forum.

Here in Freising we now got a growing number of Abhidhamma students. Ven. Agganyani (http://www.abhidhamma.de" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) teaches an Introduction to Abhidhamma once a month to the locals.

These days we bhikkhus are actually reciting the Mahapatthana during the water festival - a new addendum to the Bavarian festival calendar and a wholesome counterpart to the beer festival in autumn. :toast:


Best wishes,

Thitadhammo
