"Bhikkhu Analayo is one of our most brilliant monastic scholars of
early Buddhism, combining meticulous scholarship with a deep
understanding rooted in years of diligent meditation practice. The
present book, a wide-ranging collection of canonical studies,
offers trustworthy insights into the core concepts that shape the
"thought-world" of the Buddha's teachings." --Bhikkhu Bodhi,
author, The Noble Eightfold Path: Way to the End of Suffering

to our understanding of the Buddha's teachings. His breadth and
depth of knowledge, clarity of expression, and wise reflections
make his writings a treasured gift of Dharma." --Joseph Goldstein,
