Turning the Wheel of Truth: Commentary on the Buddha's First

Turning the Wheel of Truth: Commentary on the Buddha's First Teaching

Buddhist teachings like the eightfold path, the four noble truths, and karma pervade Buddhist literatureâ€”but how often do we read what the Buddha himself had to say about these topics? Here is an accessible look at the Buddhaâ€™s First Discourse, which contains the foundation for all further Buddhist teaching.

Ajahn Sucitto offers a new translation of this revolutionary teaching, known as The Discourse That Sets Turning the Wheel of Truth. He then walks us through the text, offering engaging and practical point-by-point commentary that makes the Buddhaâ€™s words come alive and reveals how the textâ€™s wisdom can inspire our own liberation.
