Book Reviews of Dhammapada (Shambhala Pocket Classics)

Book Review: Accessible and Direct Translation of Buddha's Teachings
Summary: 5 Stars

This pocket-sized version of the Buddha's core teachings and sayings was in my purse for almost ten years when I lived in Manhattan. I read it on the subway, in line at the post office, waiting for the bus, or even stuck in traffic (one spends a lot of time on transportation in NYC.) It isn't just that this book is small, it's that this particular translation is excellent - accessible but true to the original meaning - and without cluttering notes or author thoughts. A random sample - "Believe, meditate, see. Be harmless, be blameless. Awake to the law, and from all sorrow free yourself."
