Buddhist Scriptures
Edited with an Introduction by
Donald S. Lopez, Jr.
While Buddhism has no central text, a
powerful body of scripture from across
Asia encompasses the dharma, or the
teachings of the Buddha. This rich
anthology brings together works from a
broad historical and geographical range,
as well as several languages. Together they
provide a vivid picture of the Buddha
and of the vast nature of the Buddhist
tradition.

Containing dozens of selected Buddhist
teachings, quotes, and commentaries,

doctrines of the Buddhist tradition in
one concise volume. In making the
selections for this anthology, Dr. Conze
concentrated on texts that reflect the
essence of Buddhist teachings—on that
which is common rather than that which
separates.
