Hi Everyone!
First of all, i was wondering in what all sutras/suttas Buddha gave descriptions of the 8-fold path, especially in detail, and if any of these are available in mp3's? As some of you know, i have rather poor vision and it would be easier for me to listen to these than to read them. Thanks!

Woah! Thanks for that Sutta Readings link, Mike. That's an awesome site! I've got a few mp3s from Dhamma Downloads and discussions are nice, but it's also nice to have the Suttas themselves for my Creative ZEN.

I haven't listened to it yet, but one of those talks is on the "Great Forty" discourse (MN 117) which I like as a discussion of how the path factors relate to each other. It might be good.

It is, I listened to it recently. Bhikkhu Bodhi does three talks on that Sutta in his series...
The talk on MN9 - Right View - is also good. And MN27, and ....
