Ancient words of the Buddha ("awakened one") that can become a
companion for your own spiritual journey.
"The Dhammapada "("Path of the Buddha's Teachings") is a daily
inspiration for millions of Buddhists all over the world and for
people of all spiritual traditions who have been impressed by its
beauty and power. These words believed to have been spoken by the
Buddha himself over 2,500 years ago contain most of Buddhism's
central teachings.
Originally composed in the ancient language of Pali, this
timeless text concisely and inspirationally portrays the route a
person travels as he or she advances toward enlightenment. With
poetic sequence and rhythm, the "Dhammapada"describes the
fundamental role of mental conditioning in making us who we are. It
paints contrasting portraits of three levels of our human existence
the fool, the wise one, and the enlightened one and addresses
specific aspects of experience, conduct, and belief that
characterize our transformation from one of these modes of being to
another.
Now you can experience the "Dhammapada" with understanding even
if you have no previous knowledge of Buddhism. This SkyLight
Illuminations edition offers insightful yet unobtrusive commentary
that explains references and philosophical terms, shares the
inspiring interpretations of famous spiritual teachers, and gives
you deeper insight into the text.
