Dhammapada means "the path of dharma," the path of truth, harmony,
and righteousness that anyone can follow to reach the highest good.
Easwaran's translation of this classic Buddhist text is the
best-selling edition in its field, praised by Huston Smith as a
"sublime rendering." The introduction gives an overview of the
Buddha's teachings that is penetrating and clear - accessible for
readers new to Buddhism, but also with fresh insights and practical
applications for readers familiar with this text. Chapter
introductions place individual verses into the context of the
broader Buddhist canon. Easwaran is a master storyteller, and his
opening essay includes many stories that make moving, memorable
reading, bringing young Siddhartha and his heroic spiritual quest
vividly to life. But Easwaran's main qualification for interpreting
the Dhammapada, he said, was that he knew from his own experience
that these verses could transform our lives. This faithful
rendition brings us closer to the compassionate heart of the
Buddha.
