Summary:

"This translation of the Dhammapada verses is the third revision of work which appeared originally in 1966 under the title Growing the Bodhi Tree. Unlike most English translations of the Dhammapada, this work is a poetic rendition of verse into verse while preserving the original meaning. This revision uses the Sanskrit rather than Pali forms of Buddhist terms. An introduction to the Buddha's teachings preceeds the verse translation."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
