Okay, I finished reading the Majjhima Nikāya this morning. That means I'm approximately half way done with the Pali Canon of #Buddhism I started in October. Next up is the Samyutta Nikāya, which academics say is the oldest layer in the collection.
@ReadingFaithfully_org Any tips on how to organizing reading on SN? I don't think I can read one entire sutra per day since some are huge, but then some sections are tiny...
@apodoxus The Samyutta Nikaya (Connected discourses) is probably best done as ~x number of pages per day if you want to have some target. As you say, the length varies greatly.
Or you might just pick a length of time.
You can also skip over long suttas on days you don't have much time and come back to them later. Those post-it type flags work great for that.
@ReadingFaithfully_org Alright, this is smart. I will go with this, based on time. Perfect. Thank you. That was helpful. I didn't think of it myself! I'll take a look at your post.
