This was an assignment for an Asian History class, but became the definitive book for me to open up and fundamentally alter my view of the world. This collection of what the Buddha taught is, for me priceless, and I reccomend it to anyone with an open mind. One of the most important spiritual books in existance.

the material is great. though i don't care for translators translating religious text with king james bible style english. it is more distracting than anything else.

Muller's translation is the best rendering. Piercing.
