The Digha Nikaya V2 is a book written by Thomas William Rhys Davids in 1903. It is a collection of Buddhist texts that are part of the Pali Canon, which is the primary scripture of Theravada Buddhism. The Digha Nikaya is one of the five Nikayas, or collections, of the Pali Canon, and contains 34 suttas, or discourses, that were delivered by the Buddha to his disciples. This particular volume, Volume 2, includes the following suttas: The Sama����������aphala Sutta, The Vajira Sutta, The Mahapadana Sutta, The Mahanidana Sutta, The Mahaparinibbana Sutta, The Mahasudassana Sutta, The Janavasabha Sutta, and The Mahagovinda Sutta. The Sama����������aphala Sutta discusses the benefits and rewards of living the life of a monk, while the Vajira Sutta discusses the importance of mindfulness and concentration. The Mahapadana Sutta tells the story of the Buddha’s previous lives, and the Mahanidana Sutta discusses the nature of existence and the cycle of rebirth. The Mahaparinibbana Sutta is the longest sutta in the Digha Nikaya, and it describes the Buddha’s final days and his passing into Nirvana. The Mahasudassana Sutta tells the story of King Mahasudassana and his encounter with the Buddha, while the Janavasabha Sutta discusses the qualities of a good ruler. Finally, the Mahagovinda Sutta discusses the importance of following the Buddha’s teachings and living a virtuous life. Overall, The Digha Nikaya V2 provides a comprehensive look at some of the key teachings of Buddhism and the life and teachings of the Buddha. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Buddhism or the history of religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
