Buddha's Teachings

Ancient wisdom for travellers on the path to Nirvana

Believed to have been compiled in the third century BC, the Dhammapada is a collection of aphorisms that illustrate the Buddhist dhamma, or moral system (dharma, in Sanskrit). 'In the Dhammapada we can hear the voice of Buddha,' writes translator Juan Mascaró. 'This gospel of light and love is amongst the greatest spiritual works of man. Each verse is like a small star and the whole has the radiance of eternity.'

These selections are from Juan Mascaró's translation of The Dhammapada, published in Penguin Classics 1973.
