Dear Yong Peng,

For standard paragraph numbering (actually given in one of my earlier
emails), it's best to follow the PTS ed, since it is the most referred to
amongst scholars. However, where the PTS ed do not have such a numbering (as
in the Digha), you can find these numberings in the good translations (in
the case of Digha, in Walshe's tr.)

For the Majjhima, use the Nyananoli.Bodhi tr.
For the Samyutta, use the Bodhi tr.
For the Anguttara and others, we only have the PTS translations.

These numberings are useful to cross-check translations, too.

BTW the Pali Canon you from
http://www.tipitaka.org/tipitaka/booklistframe2.html must be the CSCD
version.
Anyway, how do I download this Canon: is there a zip file? This would be
easier to use if I can install this on my computer so that I do not have to
use the CD each time.

Sukhi.

P.
