The Hallmark of the Dhamma

One of the most striking features of Buddhism is the consistency of its teachings. In the
Theravada, at least, everything that is found bears the characteristic stamp of one mind; it is a
masterpiece of homogeneity. And considering its tremendous scope and breadth, and at the same
time the minuteness of its analysis, this consistency gives us a feeling of awe. There is something
superhuman about it. Here we are face to face with the working of a great mind, a mind of
incalculable depth and power: This is not the mind of an ordinary philosopher; still less is it that
of an inspired prophet ... We seem to be listening to the voice of one who has seen things never
seen before, realized depths of insight never reached before, yet who still keeps his. contact with
the earthy, immediate needs of humanity:

BASIC BOOKS

The Word of the Buddha

Nyanatiloka Mahathera

This superb little work by the eminent German

scholar-monk is probably the best compact
sourcebook in English on the Buddha's basic
teachings, all expounded in his own words.
Translated into a dozen languages, it is now in its
16th English edition, yet still reads as fresh, clear,
and vigorous as if it were just written.

penetrative introduction lays bare the suttas structure and
the philosophical significance of dependent arising.

This book contains an ou

outline or synopsis of the seven books of
the advanced analytical collection of the Pali Canon, the
Abhidhamma Piaka. Each of the seven books of this
collection is introduced and then systematically summarised
by the renowned German scholar- monk anatiloka
Mahathera.
The principal aim of this book is to clarify the structure of the
Abhidhamma works, most of which are quite large and
complex, and thus aid the study of them. As a further aid,
tables to clarify the factors of consciousness, etc, have been
included as an appendix. This book is indispensable for
students of Abhidhamma as well as for those who wish to
get an introduction to and overview of the Abhidhamma
Piaka.

The Community of Buddhis

Buddhist Nuns is one of the oldest
womens organizations in human history. In this book
Dr. Wijayaratna explains how this community was
started by the Buddha in the 5th century BCE, and how
it developed gradually. To show the motivation and the
way of life of these ordained women, the author uses
the oldest texts of the Pali canon. Several chapters of
this book discuss the position of Buddhist nuns in
the field of the three famous monastic themes:
poverty, chastity and obedience. This book
describes in detail the structure of the organization
of their Community, their day-to-day practices, and
the virtues and mental discipline through which
they strove to attain the sublime goal, Nibbna.

The purpose of this essay is to demonstrate and

explain the efficacy of the method of mindfulness
(satipahna), that is, to show the actual power of
mindfulness. Those who do not yet know the
Buddha's teaching well enough to accept it as a
reliable guide, may hesitate to take up, without
good reasons, a practice that just on account of its
radical simplicity may appear strange to them. In
this essay a number of such good reasons are
therefore proffered for the reader's scrutiny.
They are also meant as an introduction to the
general spirit of mindfulness and as pointers to
its wide and significant perspectives.
