Buddhistisches
Textarchiv
Die elementarsten Texte des Buddhismus werden in der Regel als Sutra bezeichnet. Zumindest der Theorie nach stammen die Sutren von einem Buddha(allerdings nicht notwendigerweise vom historischen Buddha Shakyamuni). Obwohl die unterschiedlichsten Themen abgehandelt werden, betten die meisten Sutren ihre Inhalte in die Rahmenhandlung einer Buddha-Predigt ein. Sowie im Mahayana Buddhismus die Zahl der Buddhas im Lauf der Zeit immer mehr zugenommen hat, haben sich auch die Sutren vervielfacht und ein beinah unüberschaubares Maß angenommen.

Kalama Sutta
Ein Blick auf das Kalama-Sutta von Bhikkhu Bodhi. "Bedeutet das im Kalama-Sutta Gesagte tatsächlich, wie es oft behauptet wird, dass jemand, der dem Buddhaweg folgt, auf jegliche Glaubens- und Lehrsätze verzichten könne, dass er seine eigene persönliche Erfahrung zum alleinigen Maßstab für die Beurteilung von Buddhas Aussagen nehmen solle und als Grundlage für die Ablehnung dessen, was damit nicht zu vereinbaren sei?"

Since its founding in 1881, this nonprofit organization has been the world's pre-eminent publisher of texts from the Pali canon. The PTS offers offer a hardbound edition of the complete Tipitaka in romanized Pali, and most of the Tipitaka in English translation. Some of their translations of key texts are now very badly out of date, and have been superseded by more fluent translations from other publishers (for example, their translation of the Digha Nikaya dates back to 1899; Maurice Walshe's Long Discourses of The Buddha, published by Wisdom Publications in 1987, is a much more useful text). Nevertheless, many of their translations are still valuable. Their romanized Pali editions are indispensable tools for the serious Pali student. PTS books are distributed in North America by Pariyatti.
