Description:
The Dhammapada, the Pali version of one of the most popular texts of the Buddhist canon, ranks among the classics of the world's great literature. Like all religious texts in Pali, the Dhammapada belongs to the Therevada school of Buddhist tradition, adherents of which are now found primarily in Kampuchea, Laos, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Dhammapada, or 'sayings of the dhamma', is taken to be a collection of the utterances of the Buddha himself. Taken together, the verses form a key body of teaching within Buddhism, a guidebook for those on the difficult path towards true enlightenment. However, the appeal of these epithets of wisdom extends beyond the text's religious heritage to a general and universal spirituality.
