Description

"Wisdom of the East - The Buddha's Way of Virtue" contains an English translation of the Dhammapada, a collection of sayings of the Buddha in verse form that represents one of the best known Buddhist scriptures.

According to the scholar Buddhaghosa, every saying of the collection was made at a different time and in response to a specific situation in the life of the Buddha.

This volume constitutes a must-read for Buddhists and others with an interest in Buddhism and the teachings of the Buddha.

Contents include: "The Twin Truths", "Zeal", "The Mind", "Flowers", "The Fool", "The Wise Man", "The Arahat", "The Thousands", "Vice", "Punishment", "Old Age", "Self", "The World", "The Buddha", "Bliss", "Affection", "Anger", "Sin", "The Righteous", "The Path", "Miscellany", "Hell", "The Elephant", etc.

Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.

It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
