Ajahn Brahmali discusses the 7th sutta of the Majjhima Nikaya, the Vatthupama Sutta - the Simile of the Cloth.
Read MN7 on Sutta Central or Access To Insight.
"The many different kinds of impurities that defile the mind are compared to a dirty cloth. When the mind is clean we find joy, which leads to states of higher consciousness. Finally, the Buddha rejects the Brahmanical notion that purity comes from bathing in sacred rivers," Sutta Central.

Ajahn Brahmali discusses the 50th sutta of the Majjhima Nikaya: the Marattajjaniya Sutta - The Rebuke of Mara.

Click here to read MN50 on Sutta Central.
This sutta class was meant to be a continuation of the DN1: Brahmajala Sutta - The Prime Net, which Ajahn Brahmali is currently teaching. However Ajahn Brahmali changed it to MN50 the Marattajjaniya Sutta - The Rebuke of Mara because there was no volunteer to record it, however it was recorded because we have an automatic backup audio recorder.
