Description

This collection of the reported sayings of the Buddha is one of the canonical texts of Theravada Buddhism. Written in simple and concise language, and embellished with picturesque examples, this manual of moral practice has a powerful universality which sets it apart from most sectarian scripture. Its potent opening statement: "All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts," has not only profoundly influenced religious philosophy but has also served as the basis for the huge proliferation of self-help literature in the contemporary world.
