Book excerpt: This volume contains Sangharakshita’s translations of several Pāli suttas, including the Dhammapada, the ‘best known and best loved of all Buddhist scriptures’. It also contains commentaries on the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta, the Buddha’s seminal teaching on mindfulness; the Karaṇīya Mettā Sutta, the equally essential teaching on loving kindness; the Maṅgala Sutta; and the Tiratana Vandanā. The volume concludes with The Threefold Refuge, in which Sangharakshita explores perspectives on Going for Refuge to the Three Jewels not found elsewhere in his writings.
