Dhammapada (法句經)

The Dhammapada is a vital scripture of early Buddhism, included in the Sutta Pitaka's Khuddaka Nikāya. Traditionally, its authorship is attributed to the Buddha himself, compiled by his disciples during the first council after the Buddha's parinirvana. Its content is not a single continuous discourse by the Buddha but a collection of verses later compiled by disciples from early Buddhist texts, comprising 26 chapters and 423 verses. At its core, the text condenses the fundamental teachings of Buddhism—such as the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path, and karma and rebirth—into poetic form. Its language is concise, and its meaning profound. Known as the anthology of Buddhist poetry and the origin of Buddhist sayings, the Dhammapada serves as the most direct and essential introductory text for understanding early Buddhist thought. It holds a foundational place in Buddhist scriptures and has had a profound influence on later generations.
