- The Khuddakapatha, a short book from the Khuddaka Nikaya, whose nine short passages may have been designed as a primer for novice monks and nuns. It includes many essential texts that are chanted to this day by laypeople and monastics around the world of Theravada Buddhism.
- The Snake (Uraga Sutta, Sn 1.1). One who advances far along the path sheds unwholesome states of mind, as a snake sheds its dried up old skin

- [7 Mai 97]: Sutta anthologies are now available.
- The sutta files (English translations) are now also available as anthologies, to make it easier to download many of them at once. I had to reorganize the sutta file hierearchy considerably in order to do this, so some of your bookmarks to the suttas may need to be updated. I apologize for any inconvenience.
