I recommend downloading the PDF or EPUB files, as the HTML is quite large and may bog down your browser.

About

See ./book/00-introduction.md in the repo.

The Text

The auto-generated translations were done using Google and Amazon's translation services. The Yandex and IBM Watson translations were terrible, not worth trying to use.

The ./book directory in the repo contains the contents. If you find a problem or want to help, please feel free to submit an issue.

The Code

The initial translation code is in this repo. To build the book, run ./build.sh. You will need Docker.

To release a new edition, update the introduction and create a tag along with a versioning commit. Example:

git commit --allow-empty -am v2 && \
  git tag -m v2 -a v2 && \
  git push origin master --follow-tags

TODO (v3?)

  • Redistribute to tipitika wikia
  • Compare with the Paramatthajotikā
  • Compare with Thai editions
