The Buddha's teaching aims to awaken in us a penetrating insight into the real nature of existence, an intuitive grasp of the fundamental truths concerning our lives. This insight, called 'the vision of Dhamma,' confers wisdom and peace, and leads to the mind's liberation from suffering. One of the foremost interpreters of the Buddhist vision for the present age was the German-born elder, Ven. Nyanaponika Thera, a distinguished member of the Theraveda monastic oder for over fifity years. In his numerous writings, Ven Nyanaponika expounded the Buddhist vision with extraordinary clarity and depth, presenting it as the most viable solution to the crisis and confusion faced by humankind today. The present book collects into a sngle volume the writings of Ven Nyanaponika from the esteemed Wheel and Bodhi Leaves series of the Buddhist Publication Society. This treasury of wisdom offers a vision of Dhamma, distinctly personal yet representative of the authentic Buddhist tradition at its best.
