Hello, all.
I am a huge fan of the translation and commentary works by Bhikkhu Bodhi in regards to the Pali canon. I cannot recommend enough his translations of the Majjhima Nikaya and the Samyutta Nikaya. I see he published within the last year or two a translation of the Suttanipata. Anyone reading this post have any experience with this text? As I said, I am a fan of Bhikkhu Bodhi's work. Not only do I find his translations easy to understand AND technically informative, (not an easy feat to combine those two elements) Bhikkhu Bodhi does an excellent job of finding and providing commentary and insights that illuminate the underlying ideas of the suttas. I have every reason to believe that the Suttanipata will continue his high standards.
