Greetings everyone,

I am new to the list. I have been trying to research the historical
teachings of Gotoma for some time, and the Pali Texts, I found your
group on yahoo and decided to join, in the hope that I will learn more
about these issues.

Is there a book anyone would recommend as a synopsis of Buddha's
teachings on the core issues of his philosophy based on the Pali
texts? I have found stores selling English translations of the Pali
Texts but they tend to be very expensive. I do not speak Pali yet.

Does anyone know if there are any Buddhist organizations or sects
today which rely exclusively on the Pali texts for their beliefs and
practice?

Thank you very much for your help.

Patrick
