Publisher's summary

The understanding of the nature of reality is the insight upon which the Buddha was able to achieve his own enlightenment. This vision of the sublime is the source of all that is enigmatic and paradoxical about Buddhism. In Verses from the Center, Stephen Batchelor explores the history of this concept and provides listeners with translations of the most important poems ever written on the subject, the poems of 2nd century philosopher Nagarjuna.

Sublime

I heard about this book listening to a dhamma talk from Ajahn Amaro and I instinctively knew it was a book I needed to listen to. It’s so beautiful, well translated and read. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is seriously on the Path.
