Ajahn Brahm is taking a classic text compiled by the Venerable Nyanatiloka titled the “Word of the Buddha” which provides a staged summary of the Buddha Dhamma. But Ajahn Brahm is heavily revising the text to bring it up to date with contemporary English language usage. Ajahn Brahm has given previous teachings on the Word of Buddha: https://bswa.org/teachings/

Ajahn Brahm discusses sutta 12.70 from the Samyutta Nikaya, the collection of linked discourses: Susimaparibbājaka Sutta - The Wanderer Susima.
"The wanderer Susı̄ma fraudulently enters the Sangha so that the wanderers can learn the secret to the Buddha’s fame and success. Hearing that some mendicants claimed to be perfected, Susīma approaches and asks them if they have developed psychic powers or the formless states, to which they say no. Perplexed, he asks the Buddha, who explains that awakening follows insight into the principles of impermanence and causality. Eventually Susı̄ma confesses his misdeed.", Sutta Central.

Ajahn Brahmavamso discusses part 2 of sutta 9 from the Digha Nikaya, the collection of long discourses: Potthapada Sutta - States of Consciousness.
"The Buddha discusses with a wanderer the nature of perception and how it evolves through deeper states of meditation. None of these, however, should be identified with a self or soul.", Sutta Central.
