My personal opinion is that you can't gain Panna by reading Abhidhamma. However, my knowledge of Abhidhamma is limited even though I have read Abhidhammasangatha many times.BrokenBones wrote: ↑Wed Apr 14, 2021 11:41 amHi SarathW
I'm actually interested in what you actually gleaned or benefited from in Robertk's posting of a commentary to a part of the Abhidhamma.
Obviously I don't connect to it but I was wondering in what way you see it as informative or transformative?
I suppose I'm asking... what 'higher' panna can be attained through these teachings that cannot be attained from the suttas?
My opinion is Sutta is more appropriate for gaining wisdom.
However, Roberk produced a piece of evidence from the teaching of a prominent monk which I have to respect.
I personally believe that Abhidhamma is a great source for understanding Sutta.
In my opinion, all three Pitakas are part of the parcel.
It is futile to reject one of them and rely only on some parts.
