About Dhammapada (English)
The Dhammapada - The Buddha's Path of Wisdom
translated from the Pali by Acharya Buddharakkhita
The Dhammapada is the best known and most widely esteemed text in the Pali Tipitaka, the sacred scriptures of Theravada Buddhism. The work is included in the Khuddaka Nikaya ("Minor Collection") of the Sutta Pitaka, but its popularity has raised it far above the single niche it occupies in the scriptures to the ranks of a world religious classic. Composed in the ancient Pali language, this slim anthology of verses constitutes a perfect compendium of the Buddha's teaching, comprising between its covers all the essential principles elaborated at length in the forty-odd volumes of the Pali canon.

This version of the dhammapada is ok but I have seen better ones the way it's written could be slightly clearer in modern English and have a slightly more accurate translation as well but it is ok for people who R learn the basics of the Buddha's teachings..!! But do advise that for more serious students to seek out the best most accurate translations in their own languages...!!
