Those with monetary facilities will provide them and those with physical abilities provide physical help. Those with good spiritual development too will give spiritual support.

We all belong to the Satipatthana family and so when considering on the topic of the dhamma discourse to give, it is thought best to give a talk on the Satipatthana itself.
