Summary:

Brilliant and lively, this vibrant translation of a significant text is taken to be a collection of the utterances of Buddha himself. However, the appeal of these epithets of wisdom extends beyond the text's religious heritage to a general and universal spirituality. Includes an Introduction and notes which examine the impact the "The Dhammapada" has had within Buddhism over the centuries.
