Re: Books by Bhikkhu Pesala
In light of the repeated discussions about literal vs figurative rebirth, I have updated my booklet: An Explanation of Rebirth with a bit more detail and more cross-references.

I have updated Ethical Dilemmas with a short section on Free Speech versus Right Speech.
I also corrected several broken links in the PDF file pointing to articles in the Dictionary of Pali Proper Names.

Wonderful resources. More to add to my reading list if I ever manage to get through it.Bhikkhu Pesala wrote:I have been updating the PDF files for my own books on aiimwell.org. A couple were missing, and all were formatted for printing as A6 booklets rather than for reading in a PDF viewer.They have been reformatted as A5 PDF files, which can be printed as staple-bound booklets very easily using the free PDF-XChange Viewer Besides the reformatting, only some minor corrections were made.

What is the Uncreated?
Sublime & free, what is that obscured Eternity?
It is the Undying, the Bright, the Isle.
It is an Ocean, a Secret: Reality.
Both life and oblivion, it is Nirvāṇa.

Re: Books by Bhikkhu Pesala
I have just added An Exposition of the Ādittapariyāya Sutta to my list of books.
It is quite brief, as this well-known Fire Sermon is also quite brief.

Re: Books by Bhikkhu Pesala
I have added a PDF of the Jayamaṅgala Gāthā with some comments on the verses.
There is a discussion thread on these verses (now closed) with some useful references and comments. This YouTube Video is recommended for it's excellent pronunciation of the Pāḷi.
