BuddhaGaya 2008 Tipiṭaka Chanting

May the Words of the Buddha Long Enduring !

For almost 3,000 years, the words of the Buddha have been preserved in pristine purity in the Pāḷi language of the "Tipiṭaka", a complete collection of Buddhist scripture in the authoritative Theravāda Tradition.

For the first time this year, the Roman-script edition of the World Tipiṭaka was used as a standard text at Maha Bodhi Society of India's Annual Tipiṭaka Chanting.

In the main square under the Sacred Bodhi Tree of Buddhagaya, Venerable Monks from all over the world including, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Thailand and Australia, etc., have gathered to chant the World Tipiṭaka Edition.

The newly printed 600 sets of the "Tipiṭaka Chanting Version --Majjhimanigāya in 3 Volumes-- are presented to participating international monks as a royal gift of Dhamma from the late Princess Galyani Vadhana of Thailand. The 40-volume World Tipiṭaka Edition in Roman script is a gift of Wisdom & Peace from the people of Thailand.

This short clip shows the Nepalese Venerable Monks and the World Tipiṭaka Edition in Roman script, the first group of venerable monks to have received the Roman-script Tipiṭaka Edition from Maha Bodhi Society of India.

Note the Roman-script Tipiṭaka Edition by Dhamma Society was published in A4 Size with a gold-colour cover.

Recorded from the Annual Tipiṭaka Chanting which was organised by Maha Bodhi Society of India at Buddhagaya, State of Bihar, Republic of India, between 12-22, 2008.
