Dhammapada

Book • 2014
The Dhammapada is a Buddhist scripture that distills the complex teachings of the Buddha into concise, crystalline verses.

It is part of the Khuddaka Nikaya of the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism.

The text includes various chapters that cover themes such as earnestness, thought, the nature of the fool and the wise man, and the path to enlightenment.

It emphasizes the importance of controlling one's thoughts and actions to achieve happiness and avoid suffering.

The verses are traditionally believed to have been spoken by the Buddha on various occasions and are accompanied by commentaries that provide context and stories to illustrate the teachings.
