The Elder Bhikkhunis (ther  in Pāli), whose verses (g th ) and spontaneous utterances are collected herein, represent a cross-section of the contemporary Indian society, singing songs of joy and gratitude; and extolling the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha. The thing that unites them all - they all realized the ultimate - the cessation of lust, hate, and delusion; the liberation; the end of the cycle of becoming. The verses themselves are so powerful that they can be used as a subject of meditation to reflect on the sufferings inherent in the round of existence and generate the desire to be free. In this book, both Pāli originals and English translations are provided so it's appropriate for those who want to learn Pāli or just read the translations. A full Pāli-English Glossary, detailed Endnotes, and other indices will help the interested reader to learn more about the elder bhikkhunis, their circumstances, and their efforts. \u003c\/p\u003e      \u003chr\u003e \u003cp\u003eFind more eBook formats and the latest updates of this title at this link: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learnbuddhism.org#download_the_books\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehttps:\/\/learnbuddhism.org#download_the_books\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e       ","brand":"Mahinda, Bhikkhu","offers":[{"title":"$10","offer_id":42108849881182,"sku":"206108","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$15","offer_id":42108849913950,"sku":"206108","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$25","offer_id":42108849946718,"sku":"206108","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$50","offer_id":42108849979486,"sku":"206108","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$75","offer_id":42108850012254,"sku":"206108","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$100","offer_id":42108850045022,"sku":"206108","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$5","offer_id":42108850077790,"sku":"206108","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"$0","offer_id":42108850110558,"sku":"206108","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/3677\/0142\/files\/206108_47f77d27-0100-4a21-a239-668836ce186b.jpg?v=1760548586"},{"product_id":"5137","title":"Itivuttakapali Book of This Was Said (eBook)","description":"  \u003cp\u003eThe present book, Itivuttaka, belongs to the Pāli Tipi aka, the authorized recension for the Therav da Buddhism. It is unique in the Buddhist Teachings in that it contains verses recited and collected by a woman named Khujjuttar  (declared by Lord Buddha to be foremost of those who were learned), a maid-servant of the famous Queen S m vati (declared by Lord Buddha to be foremost of those who dwelt in friendship). Whenever Lord Buddha was in Kosambi, Khujjuttar  would go and listen to the teachings. Upon her return she would recite the teachings to the royalty that included queens, princesses, and their maid-servants. To emphasize that she was telling the words of the enlightened one, she prefaced each teaching with the standard formula of  This was said by the Blessed one, said by the Arahant thus I heard . In this way, while being of a lower class, she in fact became a teacher to the high-class, royal women. Itivuttaka is also one of the nine divisions within which Lord Buddha's teachings are classified   thus the genesis of this term and this collection is indeed ancient. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe teachings contained in the present book are organized similarly to A guttara Nik ya (Numerical Discourses).
