This sutta from the Majjhima Nikāya, No. 111, is very important because it tells us about the Jhānas and experiencing insight in each of these levels of understanding. It lays out the map to the attainment of the most supreme achievement of this life — Nibbāna.
The the Buddha explains how Sariputta went through the Jhànas, one by one, and what he experienced in each one onward to liberation. Bhante comment's on the text and explains the meaning. At places he offers tips on meditation practice and what is to be done at each level of practice.
This sutta lays out the basis for the practice of TWIM (Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation), based on Loving-Kindness meditation, that is taught by Bhante Vimalaramsi at the Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center in the USA.
