<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>One of the best-known and best-loved works of Buddhist literature, the <i>Dhammapada</i> forms part of the oldest surviving body of Buddhist writings, and is traditionally regarded as the authentic teachings of the Buddha himself, spoken by him in his lifetime, and memorized and handed on by his followers after his death. A collection of simple verses gathered in themes such as 'awareness', 'fools' and 'old age', the Dhammapada is accessible, instructional and mind-clearing, with lessons in each verse to give ethical advice and to remind the listener of the transience of life. <p/>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
