This pocket-sized edition of the most widely read of all classic Buddhist texts presents, in verse form, the poetic and inspirational sayings of the Buddha

Presenting two distinct goals for leading a spiritual life-attaining happiness in this life (and in future lives) and the achievement of absolute peace-this classic text of teaching verses from the earliest period of Buddhism in India conveys the philosophical and practical foundations of the Buddhist tradition. This accessible translation combines Gil Fronsdal's personal knowledge of the Buddhist path with his rigorous attention to detail in bringing forth the original Pali text for seekers of all levels.
