This dharma talk centers around teachings from The Mahāparinibbāṇa Sutta which is a story about the last year of the Buddha’s life.

This text has two main themes:

1. The Buddha wanted to leave his teachings as guidance for his followers to empower them.
2. The Buddha wanted to encourage his followers to foster wise relationships to one another in the spiritual community and to the world.
