Introduction – 11 The texts I am publishing here are the culmination of nearly 15 years of work on the Pāḷi Dhammapada, and were preceded by a number of other texts, which I will list below. They give information supplementary to the texts presented here, which I have not repeated in this edition. The first I worked on was the Romanised transliteration of the Sinhala-letter Buddha Jayantī Tripiṭaka Granthamālā text which I prepared around 2002-3. That work set in motion a study of the text that led first to a New Edition of the Dhammapada in 2004, 1 which compared the variants in the major printed editions of the Pāḷi text, and also took into consideration the metre. For variant readings and metrical analysis, that is the edition to refer to. That work then formed the basis for A Comparative Edition of the Dhammapada, 2 which brought together all the known parallels in Middle Indo-Aryan languages, together with studies and extensive indexes. There you will find the same verse, or parts of a verse, given in the ancient languages which were cognate to the Pāḷi, but it is for the advanced student only. This year when I began work on the current project, I extracted the information from the latter work, and added more to it, listing all the parallels in the Pāḷi Canonical and para- Canonical literature, as well as in other Middle Indo-Aryan languages. 3 Other works which have been connected to the Dhammapada include publishing online Margaret Cone’s Patna Dhammapada, with studies, metrical analysis and indexes; 4 and Franz Bernhard’s Udānavarga, 5 in which I made similar additions. I still have it in mind to bring out translations of those texts when I can find time. Acknowledgements I am once again grateful to Ayyā Sudhammā, who went through the text very diligently, and with humour and patience pointed out its manifold shortcomings. I have now managed to remove some of those, but any that remain are of course entirely my own fault. I hope this work will help to continue the great tradition of providing moral guidance to the present generation in a form that they can find clear and appealing. Any merit accruing form this work I would like to dedicate to my parents: may they be well and happy and peaceful in their new lives 1 http://bit.ly/ABT-NewDhp. 2 http://bit.ly/ABT-ComDhp. 3 http://bit.ly/ABT-DhpParallels. 4 http://bit.ly/ABT-PatnaDhp. 5 http://bit.ly/ABT-Udanavarga.
Introduction – 12 2 nd Edition In November 2017 I finished a translation of the Patna Dhammapada. The work on that text reflected back many times on this translation, and I have updated this work accordingly. Ānandajoti Bhikkhu November, 2017
