Each of Buddhism's numerous traditional schools has its own set of Scriptures. In making the selections for this volume, Dr Conze concentrated on texts which reflect the essence of Buddhist teachings, on that which is common rather than that which separates. There is very little in this collection that any Buddhist ~ of any school ~ would be prepared to reject. Recorded between AD 100 and 400, the writings here include passages from the Dharmapada, the Buddhacarita, the Questions of King Milinda and the Tibetan Book of the Dead, all translated to preserve as much of the flavour of the original as possible.
