About this tradition
Theravada Buddhism preserves teachings from the Pali Canon, emphasizing mindfulness, ethical conduct, wisdom, compassion, and liberation from suffering.
Daily readings draw from the Dhammapada, a beloved collection from the Khuddaka Nikaya, using the public-domain F. Max Muller English translation and Pali source text with careful, non-sectarian reflection.
