Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi’s (
Bhikkhu Bodhi Interview) popular 10-lecture series an "Introduction to Buddhism" has been distributed on cassette tapes for over 20 years. The program contains detailed lectures on the core, original teachings of the Buddha... In 1981 while residing at the Washington Buddhist Vihara, Bhante Gunaratana, then the President of the Buddhist Vihara Society, suggested he record the lectures so that the Vihara could distribute them as a set of cassette tapes. Today, the lectures are considered "public domain" for anyone to copy and distribute freely. We recommend that you first listen to them in their proper sequence.
