The Classic manual of Buddhist doctrine and meditation by Bhadantacariya Buddhaghosa
Translated from the Pali by Bhikkhu Nanamoli
The India-born monk-scholar traveled to Sri Lanka to translate into P¿li the extensive Sinhalese commentaries preserved there. His crystallization of the entire P¿li Canon reinvigorated Theravada Buddhism in India and Sri Lanka. It still shines as clearly today, in this brilliant 1956 translation by the British-born monk, Bhikkhu Ñ¿¿amoli, that in itself is considered an outstanding achievement of P¿li scholarship of the 20th century.
