Dhammapada

Published author/translator. Vanderbilt grad. Working on the Dhammapada (Buddha's own words) at http://Dhammapada.com.🙏
People are suffering right now. So we are making our Dhammapada translation available for everyone to read without charge at Dhammapada.com. Let the Buddha's wisdom transform your path and life.🙏
Extinguish all your desires and attachments of the past, future, and present. This is Nibbana. Only then are you truly free to live. Thus, verse 348 is powerful and one of my favorites.🙏
Our shackles in life appear lax but difficult to release in practice.🙏
This is a verse that i believe few people fully understand. Unlike past translations, our translation illuminates the issue at hand: attachment. Even the good and satisfaction are bad if you cling and seek. The act of attachment means the cycle of rebirths remains. Let go!🙏
We have passed the 80% mark of our Dhammapada translation. I appreciate you following along and keeping me company as we diligently work on this critical book project. So many people are suffering and this accurate yet understandable version will benefit countless people.🙏
Did you know Tina Turner was a Buddhist?🙏😊
Follow the Dhamma. It's your refuge. Use your intelligence. Follow yourself. You are your own refuge. You are enough, but you must exert effort. No one can do it for you.🙏
Do not let an attachment overwhelm you -- overwhelm it instead. When you do, your sorrow ends.🙏
