In the quiet echoes of ancient voices, this timeless Therigatha translation tenderly unfolds the verses of early Buddhist nuns who walked the path of awakening over two millennia ago—offering contemplative souls a profound glimpse into their journeys of liberation, resilience, and inner wisdom.
Through these Buddhist nuns' poems, the struggles, triumphs, and spiritual insights of women seeking enlightenment come alive, revealing themes of freedom from suffering, the pursuit of insight, and the transformative power of practice. For modern mystics and meditators exploring women in Buddhism, it serves as a gentle invitation to reflect on the enduring strength of early Buddhist women's voices, fostering a deeper connection to compassion, presence, and the shared human quest for wholeness.
This Psalms of the Sisters book nourishes those who dwell in mindful inquiry, reminding us that true awakening arises from honest encounters with the heart's deepest truths—beyond time, tradition, and self.
A cherished companion for contemplative living, where the words of ancient sisters open portals to timeless peace and empowerment.
