Description

The Dhammapada: The Buddha's "Way of Virtue" This foundational Buddhist text is widely regarded as encapsulating the core of Buddhist philosophy. Traditionally believed to have been dictated by Sakyamuni, it comprises 423 poetically inciteful verses grouped by themes deemed important for achieving Nirvāna, or "highest freedom". The Buddha's key methodology is control of the mind, which he believes allows followers to progress towards liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth. The Dhammapada has been translated into more languages than any other Buddhist text, making it a widely accessible and authoritative work on Eastern philosophy. This translation by W.D.C. Wagiswara and K.J. Saunders remains a standard text in English for many students of the subject. With its concise and thought-provoking verses, this book provides a valuable insight into the Buddha's teachings on virtue, morality, and spiritual growth.
