Opis

This anthology includes several canonical and post canonical books that are part of the great Buddhist tradition of South East Asia. In this particular bilingual format a reader with a background in Buddhist philosophy will find an intriguing and direct access to one of the most import textual traditions of the world. Through the medium of approaching the ancient Indian language mirrored one-to-one with English an unprecedented meditation upon the original and most essential Buddhist concepts is achieved. This anthology is therefore not just a Pali primer, a historic travel guide, a philosophical treatise explaining deep and intrinsic Buddhist terminology that shaped the lives and history of South East Asia: it is also a fascinating meditation into the mind of one of the world's greatest thinkers: Siddhattha Gotama, the Buddha.
