The Dhammapada is a revered collection of sayings of the Buddha, presented in verse form. It is one of the most widely read and well-known Buddhist scriptures. The original version is part of the Khuddaka Nikaya, a division of the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism.

The Buddhist scholar and commentator, Buddhaghosa, provides insights that each saying in this collection was made on different occasions, reflecting unique situations that arose during the life of the Buddha and his monastic community. His commentary, The Dhammapada Atthakatha, offers rich legends about the life and times of the Buddha.

This classic text encourages readers to reflect on their deepest nature and to live life in harmony with the profound understanding shared by the Buddha through these beautiful verses. It serves as a guide to offer insight and liberation, touching the seeds of understanding and love within us.
