This volume includes the first part of the Vinaya texts, which is known as the Suttavibhanga. It contains rules and regulations for the conduct of monks, including rules for ordination, behavior, and discipline. The book also includes stories of the Buddha's life and teachings, as well as commentary on the Vinaya texts by Buddhist scholars.Overall, Vinaya Texts V1 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and teachings of Buddhism, particularly those interested in the monastic community and its practices. The book provides a glimpse into the daily life of Buddhist monks and the rules they must follow to maintain purity and discipline.1881. Translated from the Pali by T.W.
