Learn moreNeither the date nor the authorship of the Dhammapada is known, but there is conclusive evidence that this monument of the Buddhist canon existed well before the Christian era.

This classic religious text focuses on practical morality, which, if practised earnestly and diligently, will lead the practitioner to Nirvana, the state of unconditioned eternal bliss. By following these injunctions, says the Buddha, “the wise man may make for himself an island which no flood can overwhelm.”
