Nagarjuna's a Drop of Nourishment for People and its commentary The Jewel Ornament - Translated by Dr. Stanley Frye

 


A drop of nourishment for people by Nagarjuna and its commentary 'The Jewel Ornament' provides a very fascinating reading of Karma in the theory and practise of Buddhist philosophy. Through numerous fables and legends that are at once delightful and frightening, the text and its commentary reveals the impermanent nature of Samsara and prompts the reader towards the Buddhist ideals of Nirvana. Not only adults but children will also enjoy and benefit by reading 'A Drop of Nourishment' and especially its commentary 'The Jewel Ornament' which delves into the world of fables, fairy-tales and legends to bring home the Buddhist message of love, compassion and kindliness to all sentient beings.

Interesting and intriguing book

Nagarjuna provides sound and commonsense advice that is interesting to read but more importantly does not come off sounding too doctrinal nor forceful. Nagarjuna aims to penetrate the heart of the reader with wisdom that is sincere with wisdom that is explained in tales and lessons that gives the reader an impression of gentleness, kindness, peace, and humility. I found the book to be quite an interesting display of Nagarjuna's wit and intellect.
