Dear Eskay,



Thank you very much for your aswer, kindness and help.

Indeed I have interest, but it seems that the book you have is just a
translation o the First Sermon, insn’t?

Translation of this Sutta I have already few. What I do not have is an clear
commentary on the Sutta itself, explaning the general and literay meaning of
each word as well, each sentence and the practice structure of the Sutra.



Thus your book includes a commentary like that too?



Again, thank you very much.

With regards and good wishes,

gabriel

Dear Gaby,
I have a small, old, delicate book in my labrary, an English translation
titled The First Disclosure of the Buddha published in 1972 by the Most
Ven. Narada Maha Thera which I presume will serve your purpose. Ven Narada
is a well known Sri Lankan Buddhist scholar who is the author of the
excellent work titled The Buddha and his Teachings a work not only very
useful as an introduction to Buddhism to the new student of Buddhism as well
as an excellent, comprehensive guide-line to Buddhism to the advanced
scholar on which a deeper study could be undertaken.

If I am able to buy a new copy of the said translation of the First
Disclosure I could post it to you. Otherwise I will try to scan the old
delicate copy and email it to you.

Please inform if you still need it.

May the Buddha Dhamma guide and protect you!

Eskay.

Dear Dhamma Friends,

I am looking for a traditional Classical pali commentary on the root text of
the First Sermon of Buddha "Dhamma Cakra Pavartan Sutta". By traditional I
mean a commentary that explain the meaning of the dhamma in it but also the
etimology and meaning of the words in the sutra. Thus exist such a
commentary in pali language? If yes, thus it has an english translation of
the same too?

I have a friend in Thailand that could send me the texts if just available
there.

Thanks very much for any help.
Best wishes,
gabriel
