Book Summary
2010 Reprint of 1922 edition. Translated by F. Max Mueller. The Dhammapada is a versified Buddhist scripture traditionally ascribed to the Buddha himself. It is one of the best known texts from the Theravada canon. As the Psalms are to the Bible, so is the Dhammapada to the relics handled down of the life work the Buddha. These sermons, written out by his followers and translated into many languages, guide the reader through the process of attaining wisdom and peace. They suggest how to conduct one's life and the proper attitude one should have towards life and adversity. The teaching of the Law contained within the sermons is so simple and so cogent that their appeal is universal.
