This is a beautiful book. It has both English translation and Pali Translations on opposite page of very important writings of the Buddha. The real practice of Buddhist monks is written here. Also there is a clear introduction of how to practice in your daily life by giving practical ways to set up a meditation space; and why things are done as they are in Buddhist culture. It is used at a Buddhist Monastery in West Virginia: Bhavana Society. This book is highly recommended and so inexpensive you won't be disappointed. A real treasure. With Metta, Claudine
