“The Only Path to Nibbana - Maha Satipatthana Sutta (The Great Discourse on the Establishment of Mindfulness)”

Author: Ven. Weragoda Sarada Maha Thero

Editor: Edwin Ariyadasa

Illustrators: P. Wickramanayake, Piyaratna Hewabatage

The Supreme Buddha has endowed upon mankind the only unfailing path to the fullest exploration of the inner spirit of man. Scholars have elevated this work to the level of the most important Sutta (Discourse) in the entire Pali canon. This Discourse recurs in the Digha Nikaya and Majjhima Nikaya.

"Maha Satipatthana Sutta -The Only Path to Nibbana", presents the total Pali text with illuminating glosses and commentaries. Errors of omission and commission by previous editors have been put right. The English translation is lucid, while being scrupulously faithful to the original text.

The work bears his unmistakable hallmark of lavish illustration. The present version of this Great Discourse makes it available to a very wide global audience, providing the opportunity to truth-seeking modems all over the world, to study and practise the system of mind- culture and reality-discovery, the Supreme Buddha gifted to mankind, to enable men and women of wisdom to tread the "only Path" (Ekayana Magga), towards the release from the bonds of Death.
