රු 250.00
“Monks, this is the one and only path for the purification of beings, for the overcoming of sorrow and lamentation, for the disappearance of pain and grief, for the attainment of the true way, for the realization of Nibbāna. In other words, the four establishments of mindfulness. What are the four? Here, monks, a monk remains contemplating the body as body, dedicated, fully aware, and mindful, having abandoned greed and grief for the world. He remains contemplating feelings as feelings, dedicated, fully aware, and mindful, having put away greed and grief for the world. He remains contemplating mind as mind, dedicated, fully aware, and mindful, having put away greed and grief for the world.“He remains contemplating phenomena as phenomena, dedicated, fully aware, and mindful, having put away greed and grief for the world.” – Buddha –

Preface
Meritorious Devotees and Children,
Before this publication, I wrote a comprehensive commentary on the Maha Satipatthana Sutta (The Great Discourse on the Establishments of Mindfulness) based on excerpts from various suttas. The book was published under the title The Supreme Bliss of Nibbana, and gained recognition from pious Buddhist Devotees.
Though devotees have for quite some time been requesting that I furnish a book that is suited for chanting the Maha Satipatthana Sutta in both Pali and Sinhala languages, so far it was delayed as I was busy. This publication is in response to the request made by those devotees.
If a person melodiously chants this Pali-Sinhala Maha Satipatthana Discourse in a peaceful place in his home, in a stupa compound or under the shade of a Bodhi-tree, or any other suitable location, by doing so they can accrue both the great merit of chanting the Dhamma of the Tatagatha and the great merit of contemplating on the Dhamma. To make the chanting easier for you, places you are supposed to pause are marked with the / sign.
By chanting this Maha Satipatthana Sutta, you have the fortune of getting a clear interpretation of the Four Noble Truths from the words of the Buddha himself. Therefore I bless you to accrue exquisite merit by melodiously chanting this Maha Satipatthana Sutta with a pleasant mind, contemplating on its meaning. By the influence of the merits thus gained, may you realise the Four Noble Truths in this Gauthama Buddha’s Dispensation!
With thoughts of Metta,
Kiribathgoda Gnanananda Thera.
