This book is on Buddhist teachings for the attainment of peace, happiness and spiritual wisdom. The publication contains two major books. One is the fully illustrated English version of the popular Buddhist discourse "Maha Mangala Sutta" (The discourse on the highest blessings). The second book anthologized here is the "Lovada Sangarava'' (Book of wordly welfare). It is a 15th Century classic in Sinhala, and is a well-known didactic poem. The stanzas culled from that work are presented in this book with an accompanying English version.
