Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, "Dhatupatha and Dhatumajusa," is a critical edition of two Pali grammatical texts, both of which are essential for the study of this ancient Indian language. The Dhatupatha is a comprehensive list of Pali verbal roots, while the Dhatumajusa is a commentary on the Dhatupatha that provides additional information about each root, including its meaning, usage, and conjugation. The Dhatupatha and Dhatumajusa are important texts because they provide a foundation for the study of Pali grammar and lexicography. The Dhatupatha is the starting point for any study of Pali verbs, and the Dhatumajusa is an invaluable resource for understanding the finer points of Pali grammar. The author of this critical edition has provided a valuable service to scholars of Pali by making these two important texts more accessible. The edition includes a critical apparatus that documents the variants found in different manuscripts of the texts, as well as an index of verbal roots. This makes it an essential resource for anyone interested in studying Pali grammar or lexicography. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Language: PALI,ENGLISH. About the book:-The Sutta Nip?ta is a Buddhist scripture, a sutta collection in the Khuddaka Nikaya, part of the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism. This landmark volume in the Teachings of the Buddha series translates the Suttanipata, a text that matches the Dhammapada in its concise power and its centrality to the Buddhist tradition. Celebrated translator Bhikkhu Bodhi illuminates this text and its classical commentaries with elegant renderings and authoritative annotations. The Suttanipata, or "Group of Discourses" is a collection of discourses ascribed to the Buddha that includes some of the most popular suttas of the Pali Canon, among them the Discourse on Loving-Kindness Sutta. The suttas are primarily in verse, though several are in mixed prose and verse. The Suttanipata contains discourses that extol the figure of the muni, the illumined sage, who wanders homeless completely detached from the world. Other suttas, such as the Discourse on Downfall and the Discourse on Blessings, establish the foundations of Buddhist lay ethics. The last two chaptersthe Atthakavagga (Chapter of Octads) and the Parayanavagga (The Way to the Beyond)are considered to be among the most ancient parts of the Pali Canon. The Atthakavagga advocates a critical attitude toward views and doctrines. The Parayanavagga is a beautiful poem in which sixteen spiritual seekers travel across India to meet the Buddha and ask him profound questions pertaining to the highest goal. The commentary, the Paramatthajotika, relates the background story to each sutta and explains each verse in detail. The volume includes numerous excerpts from the Niddesa, an ancient commentary already included in the Pali Canon, which offers detailed expositions of each verse in the Atthakavagga, the Parayanavagga, and the Rhinoceros Horn Sutta. About the Author :- (1882 1956) Helmer Smith was a Swedish Indologist. He studied from 1900 to 1904 in Uppsala, where he passed his examination as a Candidatus in Sanskrit, Latin, Greek, including Slavic and North Germanic languages. He continued his studies in Berlin from 1905-06 under Pischel and Geldner before he passed the examination in 1908 as Philosophiae Licentiatus. With his in-depth knowledge of the Pali manuscripts and his keen critical talent, he undoubtedly occupied the first place among contemporary Pali researchers. In 1921 he became a lecturer in Indology at Lund University. In 1927 he received an honorary doctorate there. From 1936 to 1947 he was professor of Sanskrit and comparative Indo-European language research at Uppsala University.
