This is the eBook edition of the Spanish translation of the Buddhist Dictionary: Manual of Buddhist Terms and Doctrines.
La presente traducción del Buddhist Dictionary: Manual of Buddhist Terms and Doctrines, de Nyanatiloka Thera, es un intento de hacer accesible al público lector de habla española no sólo un diccionario de términos del pāli, ya que la obra va más allá de meramente ofrecer la traducción de términos. La obra del venerable Nyanatiloka Thera es de un calado más amplio y profundo, ya que junto con muchos de los vocablos del pāli se incluyen explicaciones y definiciones amplias de términos y doctrinas canónicas y poscanónicas que se encuentran en los suttas, el Abhidhamma y los Comentarios.
El Diccionario Budista traducido aquí es el que corresponde al editado por BPS Pariyatti (BPE) en 2019. La obra ha sido modificada a lo largo de los años, desde su aparición, en 1952 (Ed. BPS). En la presente edición aparecen notablemente las notas de la fuente y párrafos precedidos por la palabra Publicaciones , las cuales proveen en muchos casos referencias adicionales a las encontradas en el texto original; en otros casos proveen explicaciones adicionales basadas en la doctrina o en el análisis de términos pāli que requieren mayor elaboración explicativa. Este material adicional ha enriquecido sustancialmente la obra original.
El libro contiene traducciones de importantes palabras pāli y términos de meditación ordenados alfabéticamente en español. Hay traducciones de palabras tanto en español como en pāli mezcladas, lo que facilita la búsqueda de palabras o términos pāli importantes, o el encontrarlos cuando sólo se conoce el equivalente en español.
Traducido al español por Miguel A. Romero.
Revisado por el venerable U Nandisena y Ricardo Szwarcer.

VIPASSANA PRODUCTS
Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. More information about Vipassana as taught by S.N. Goenka is available at www.dhamma.org.
The tag Vipassana identifies products that are directly related to this tradition and differentiates them from other Theravada resources available on our site. While the main emphasis in Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka is on actual practice, this product may provide inspiration and guidance to a Vipassana meditator.
We also carry titles from the Theravada tradition, as we feel that by exploring the wider world of the Theravada texts, which include the Buddha’s discourses, commentaries, and scholarly articles and treatises, meditators have an opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Dhamma and thereby enrich their meditation practice. This kind of intellectual exploration also helps a meditator to gain an understanding of the evolution and historical context of their meditation tradition. This understanding in turn deepens their practice and understanding of the Dhamma.

Q: Why have you decided to partner with Amazon for the printing and distribution of your books?
A: Pariyatti is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to help disseminate the words of the Buddha.
The generosity of our customers and donors (donations make up ~25% of our revenue) is what has allowed Pariyatti to cover our annual shortfall, and permitted us to continue operations. We strive to continue to find ways to make best use of this hard-earned money, generously donated by so many to Pariyatti. One of these is to explore ways to optimize our operations.
Our goal is to disseminate Dhamma content. The choice of working with a given distribution partner is solely based on whether they can provide you, our customer (no matter where you live) with the item(s) you ordered in an accurate, timely, and reliable manner.
With the advent of eBooks and the internet, the entire book publishing and distribution industry has faced significant challenges. With these industry changes, and Pariyatti's additional challenges in serving a niche market with low sales volumes, it has been financially difficult to staff our own warehouse and operations. Year after year, the costs of maintaining our own warehouse has far exceeded the income.
By focusing on what we do best (such as make Dhamma content available at low or no cost), and partnering with others who have already built robust printing, packing, and delivery systems, we free up resources that can be redirected towards expanding Pariyatti's offerings for you.
We are always on the lookout for creative ways to make Dhamma content as widely and freely available as possible. If you have any ideas along these lines, please feel free to be in touch via director@pariyatti.org .
