Subject: Verses of the Elders 1.1


"Verses of the Elders" contains inspirational verses from the early
Buddhist monks and nuns. This application randomly generates one of the
verses each time it is opened, making it a nice addition to the Startup
Items folder. Additionally, clicking on the quotation will generate a
new verse. The verses can be saved as text files, and printed from the
"File" menu.

The Theragatha and Therigatha contain stories in verse form in which the
early monks (bhikkhus) and nuns (bhikkhunis) recount their struggles and
accomplishments along the road to enlightenment. These stories are told
with an often heart-breaking honesty and beauty which reveal the human
side of these extraordinary men and women and serve as inspiring
reminders of our own potential to follow in their footsteps.
