The Dhammapada: With Annotated Notes and Appendix
The most popular and widely read of all Buddhist texts, the 'Dhammapada' (Path of the Dharma, or Teachings) is widely regarded as the most important example of early Buddhist philosophy. Said by tradition to have been dictated by Sakyamuni himself, this classic text comprises 423 delightfully poetic verses, grouped by themes deemed important to the attainment of salvation: joy, anger, desire, vice, zeal, hell, bliss, sin, and punishment. 'The Dhammapada' has been published in more languages than any other Buddhist text. For many students of eastern philosophy this translation (a collaboration between Cambridge scholar K. J. Saunders and The Royal Asiatic Society's W. D. C. Wagiswara) remains the standard text in English
