The Buddhist Publication Society (BPS), founded in Sri Lanka in 1958, is an approved charity dedicated to making known the teaching of the Buddha. BPS publications represent the standpoint of Theravada Buddhism, the oldest living Buddhist tradition, of which the Pali Canon gives the most authentic account, what the historical Buddha himself actually taught. The BPS has become a major Buddhist publisher with hundreds of titles and a field of distribution extending to ninety countries. Pariyatti is currently the North American distributor of all BPS titles.

By agreement with the Buddhist Publication Society, Pariyatti republishes BPS books worldwide. The content is generally unchanged, but the BPS Pariyatti Editions (BPE) use an ergonomic font and size, thicker paper, and a stronger spine.
