Dhammapada: A Translation of the Buddhist Classic with Annotations by Gil Fronsdal

The Dhammapada is a collection of Buddhist teaching verses on the mind, conduct and liberation. Gil Fronsdal’s translation from Pali offers an accessible reading supported by annotations.

The verses often contrast skillful and unskillful ways of acting, speaking and thinking. This edition includes a foreword by Jack Kornfield; Fronsdal translates the traditional work rather than originating its teachings.
