Between Twin Sala Trees

Between Twin Sala Trees

Talk given by Dharmasara on 2026-02-07.

In this talk, Dharmasara explores the Buddha’s final days and his Parinirvana, complete Enlightenment beyond birth and death. An event that tells us much about the meaning of Enlightenment, the nature of the mind, and the spirit in which Buddhism is to be practised.

Drawing on three stories from the Mahaparinibbana Sutta, Dharmasara paints a picture of the Buddha’s final teachings, his actions at the age of 80, and the lasting lessons for practitioners in today’s world.
