It provides the reader not with a mere superficial enumeration of important Pali terms and their English equivalents, but offers him precise and authentic definitions and explanations of canonical and post-canonical terms and doctrines, based on Sutta, Abhidhamma and the Commentaries, and illustrated by numerous quotations taken from these sources, so that, if anyone wishes, he could, by intelligently joining together the different articles, produce without difficulty a complete exposition of the entire teachings of Buddhism. ...\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Nyanatiloka\u003cbr\u003e Central Internment Camp\u003cbr\u003e Dehra-Dun, India 28 8 1946.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEditor s Preface\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"This sixth revised edition is a cooperative effort of the BPS and Pariyatti. In this edition the abbreviation scheme and reference systems have been modernised. Moreover, some of the  source notes  made in an age when digital search tools were not available, and originally located in an appendix have been revised by me in order to accurately reflect the first occurrences of terms and to avoid duplication of statements already found in the entries. The British spelling of words has been retained.\"\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e Nyanatusita\u003cbr\u003e Kandy, Sri Lanka\u003cbr\u003e September 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003chr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"buddhist-dictionary-spanish\"\u003eAlso available in Spanish\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nyanatiloka, Thera","offers":[{"title":"Paperback + eBook Bundle","offer_id":42108769566814,"sku":"AMZNKDP774601","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook (PDF | ePUB | MOBI)","offer_id":42108769599582,"sku":"764601","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3677\/0142\/files\/770968_e8aa8f36-151a-4a6c-a800-785d4e1ecfe4.jpg?v=1760547663","url":"https:\/\/pariyatti.org\/products\/1476","provider":"Pariyatti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
