Produktbeschreibung

"The Dhammapada," as translated and interpreted by F. Max Müller, is a seminal version of this classic Buddhist text. Friedrich Max Müller, a noted 19th-century German philologist and Orientalist, brought the teachings of the Buddha to a broader Western audience through this translation. His work is part of the "Sacred Books of the East" series, which played a crucial role in introducing Eastern philosophical and religious thought to the Western world. Müller's translation of the Dhammapada from Pali into English is recognized for its linguistic precision and scholarly approach. The text consists of succinct verses that encapsulate the core principles of Buddhist teachings, such as the nature of the mind, the path to enlightenment, moral living, and the cultivation of wisdom. Müller's introduction and commentary provide valuable insights into the historical and philosophical context of the Buddha's teachings, making it accessible and relatable to a 19th-century Western audience. His work has been influential in shaping Western understanding of Buddhist philosophy and continues to be a reference for students and scholars of Buddhism and comparative religion.
