THE DHAMMAPADA ~The Gospel of the Buddha~Revised Translation by Paul Smithfrom translation from the Pali of F. Max MullerFrom ancient times to now, the Dhammapada has been regarded as the most succinct expression of the Buddha's teaching and the chief spiritual testament of early Buddhism. In the countries following Buddhism, the influence of the Dhammapada is immeasurable. It is a guidebook for resolving problems of everyday life, and a primer for the instruction in the wisdom of understanding. The admiration the Dhammapada has elicited has not been confined to followers of Buddhism. Wherever it has become known, its moral earnestness, realistic understanding of human life, wisdom and stirring message of a way to freedom from suffering have won for it the devotion and veneration of those responsive to the good and true. 247 pagesCOMMENTS ON PAUL SMITH'S VERSION OF HAFIZ'S 'DIVAN'.“It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance.

Le Dhammapada constitue le recueil des paroles de Siddhartha Gautama. Ces paroles furent dites il y a environ 2500 ans et furent durant la vie de l’Éveillé canonisé en verset avant d'être récité à l'oral par les disciples Bhikkous dans l'unité de la communauté Sangha. Stances, proverbes, aphorismes ou poésie ? Récité, chanté ou prié ? Mémorisé, enseigné ou pratiqué ? Ces 423 versets constitue en 26 chapitres, l'enseignement du Bouddha. Cet enseignement qu'il faut pratiquer sur sa conduite et qui mène au Nirvana. Pour la rédaction de ce livre, nous nous sommes efforcés de rendre le texte intelligible et simple de compréhension. Connaissant sa nature à être récité, nous nous sommes aussi efforcés à lui rendre sa dynamique, son rythme et ses rimes. Vous trouverez enfin en préface une présentation historique entourant l'écriture de ce livre ainsi qu'une biographie sur son auteur présumé : Siddhartha Gautama, dit le Bouddha originel.
