Vinaya Texts V1: The Sacred Books of the East V13 is a book that contains a collection of ancient Buddhist texts known as the Vinaya Pitaka. The Vinaya Pitaka is one of the three main divisions of the Buddhist canon, and it contains the rules and regulations that govern the behavior of Buddhist monks and nuns. The book is translated and edited by F. Max Muller, a renowned scholar of comparative religion and the founder of the Sacred Books of the East series. The first volume of the Vinaya Texts includes the Suttavibhanga, the Khandhaka, and the Parivara, which cover topics such as the rules for ordination, the behavior of monks and nuns, and the organization of the Buddhist community. This book is an important resource for scholars of Buddhism, as well as anyone interested in the history and philosophy of this ancient religion.1881. Translated from the Pali by T.W. Rhys Davids and Hermann Oldenberg. The Sacred Books of the East series, comprising fifty volumes, has translations of key sacred texts of Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Jainism, and Islam. The series was edited by the famous linguist Max Muller, who also produced many of the translations and were the foundational documents for the new discipline known as the comparative science of religions.
