Suttanipāta

£26.00

Fifth text of the Khuddaka-nikāya of the Sutta-piṭaka, consisting mainly of verses, apparently compiled from a number of sources. Two chapters of the Suttanipāta are mentioned by name in other Pāli canonical texts, and the commentary upon them is also included in the canon. It is apparent that this text contains some of the oldest Pāli poetry we possess.

d. Dines Andersen and Helmer Smith, 1913, 1990, 2017

Translations: Group of Discourses, 2nd ed., The Rhinoceros Horn (paperback), and The Suttanipāta: An Ancient Collection of the Buddha’s Discourses Together with its Commentaries.
