Understanding the Buddhist Scriptures

Metta Centre

Amongst the many books written by Bhante Dhammika, his book titled, “The Buddha’s Words”, provides extracts from the Buddhist scriptures from the Tipitaka and post-canonical literature, arranged so that the reader can read an extract every day for a year as part of a practice to “Recollect the Dhamma” and for those who wish to learn about Buddhism through the Buddha’s words.
                                                                                                           
In this course, Bhante Dhammika, will explore the Buddha’s scriptures, drawing on the wisdom from the Buddha’s words that have been passed on from generations to generations, since over 2600 years ago.
