We
have also compiled an excellent Glossary
of Buddhist Terms in response to
the numerous requests we receive from
prisoners for a glossary to assist them
in gaining a deeper understanding of
their Buddhist studies. This glossary
offers Pali, Sanskrit, Tibetan, Japanese
and Chinese Buddhist terms from the
Hinayana (Theravada), Tibetan, Zen and
Shin Buddhist traditions. The Glossary
of Buddhist Terms is by no means
an exhaustive work, yet it offers a wide
variety of Buddhist terms that will help
clarify and deepen one's understanding of
the Buddhist Path to Liberation.

May
the virtue of this Dharma work be
dedicated to liberating all living beings
from suffering, and to the ultimate goal
of enlightenment for the benefit of all.
May the precious, superior heart/mind of
Compassion, Wisdom, and Love be generated
in those who have not yet generated it.
May it not decrease in those who have
developed it, but increase continuously.
