The Dhammapada (Illustrated Edition): 423 Verses on Conduct, Mind, and the Path, (Paperback)

A classical collection of verses presenting central teachings of early Buddhism, here accompanied by original illustrations. The Dhammapada gathers 423 short verses traditionally attributed to the Buddha, organized around themes of conduct, thought, and the nature of existence.

The work proceeds through concise aphoristic statements that emphasize discipline, awareness, and the consequences of action. Its structure allows individual verses to stand independently while contributing to a broader ethical and philosophical framework. The text has been transmitted across centuries as a foundational expression of Buddhist thought.

This illustrated edition includes thirteen original illustrations by Keira Elyse Myers, providing a visual complement to the text while maintaining the clarity and structure of the original work.
