First Edition

A New Translation of the Samyutta Nikaya
The Connected Discourses of the Buddha is a complete translation of the Samyutta Nikaya - the third great collection of the Buddha's discourses preserved in the Pali Canon - containing all of the important short suttas on such major topics as the Four Noble Truths, dependent origination, the seven factors of enlightenment, and the Noble Eightfold Path. The Connected Discourses ranks as one of the most inspiring compilations in the Buddhist canon. Bhikkhu Bodhi's distinguished and precise translation, his insightful introductory materials, and his extensive notes guide the reader through this vast collection of the Buddha's ancient teachings. This is the third title in Wisdom Publications' award-winning Teachings of the Buddha Series, following The Long Discourses of the Buddha and The Middle Length Discourses of the Buddha. Like its two predecessors, The Connected Discourses is sure to merit a place of honor in the library of every student of Buddhism.
