Author: Rhys Davids, Caroline Augusta Foley
Title: A BUDDHIST MANUAL OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ETHICS (Buddhist Psychology) OF THE FOURTH CENTURY BC: being a translation now made for the first time from the Original Pali of the First Book in the Abhidhamma Pitaka entitled Dhammasangani (Compendium of States or Phenomena)
Description: New Delhi, Munshiram Manoharlal Publishers, 1996. reprint 393 pp. cloth / linen with dustjacket. This volume is a translation from original Pali into English of Dhamma-Sangani, the first book of the seven books of the Ahidhamma-Pitaka. The Dhamma-Sangani is an important text of the Theravadin School of Buddhism and deals with the enumeration of the psychic and mental properties, i. the elements and objects of consciousness and constitutes an important work from the point of view of psychological ethics. The book is divided into three main sections containing: the Genesis of Thoughts - Form - The Division Entitled Elimination. The learned author has not simply rendered a literal translation of this difficult text but has added copious notes to the text and has also tried to connect the Manual with the rest of the Buddhist Pitakas. Spine dustjacket slightly discoloured. Otherwise very nice and clean copy.
