ParticipantTeruwan Saranai.
I have heard Waharaka Thero’s Tisarana Vandana chanting since last year.
I have had a question while listening to it.
It’s a Dhaham Guna part.
I had a strong impression that Thero read certain verses in a set.
Like this :
(Svakkatho, Bhagavathā dhammo)
(sanditthiko, akaliko)
(ehipassiko, opanayiko)
(paccattam vedittabbo vinnuhi ti)
I heard that Thero had Patisambhidhā Ñāna. So I thought there must be a reason why Thero read this way.
After much consideration, I guessed it would be related to anapanasati/satipattana bhavana’s process like below.
I referred to Lal’s article (https://puredhamma.net/buddhist-chanting/supreme-qualities-of-buddha-dhamma-sangha/) for the meaning of the term.
Set 1.
Hetu – Svakkatho, Bhagavathā dhammo : leads to the removal of sansaric suffering via getting out of the 31 realms.
Phala – paccattam vedittabbo vinnuhi : “paccayā” can be understood by looking at the origins (veda or vedic)
Set 2.
Hetu – sanditthiko : It allows one to comprehend “san” (“san” + “diṭṭhi“)
Phala – akaliko : It’s Another meaning is that it leads to the removal of darkness.
Set 3.
Hetu – ehipassiko : defilements can be removed (“passika“) when each ärammana comes to the mind (“Ehi“).
Phala – opanayiko : one can comprehend how each existence (bhava and jati) arises.
In this way, phrases are connected to cause and effect
I thought it explains the process of eliminating anapanasati/satipattana bhavana.
Are these guesses valid?

Thank you for reminding that Ven Lal 🙏.

ParticipantGood Buddhaparisada,
it’s hard to find any teaching within the many, which does not ‘simply’ describe either lokuttara paṭiccasamuppādo or the common, Dukkha and the cessation of it.
Only a view words, if proper attention, may lead to paths and fruits, so much mudita if a glimpse arose on ‘just that’, yet the try to nail it down, make something out- from- into it, might hinder suddenly.
Dhamma requires not only to see ‘the’ Buddha, but also to reach the heirs domain.
