Satipatthana Suttanta Resources

With the exception of the inclusion of the Pali for the MahaSatipatthana Sutta and the classic Rhys Davids Translation of the same, this section is little more than an effort to make convenient in one spot the materials on the Satipatthana available elsewhere on the Web (most specifically on Access to Insight). I have put these materials together here for the sake of those who wish to download this entire site for offline use and I also hope that by including this material here I am making the statement that my own translations and interpretations are to be subjected to careful examination and comparison with other sources: this is good Dhamma Research which I wish to indicate that I endorse.
