With the advent of eBooks and the internet, the entire book publishing and distribution industry has faced significant challenges. The choice of working with a given distribution partner is solely based on whether they can provide you, our customer (no matter where you live) with the item(s) you ordered in an accurate, timely, and reliable manner. Our goal is to disseminate Dhamma content. One of these is to explore ways to optimize our operations. We strive to continue to find ways to make best use of this hard-earned money, generously donated by so many to Pariyatti.

He explained to them the truths he had discovered, and on hearing his discourse they gained insight into the Dhamma, becoming his first disciples. The first ones he approached were his former companions, the five ascetics who had deserted him a few months earlier and were now dwelling in a deer park at Sarnath near Benares. When he saw this his heart was stirred by deep compassion, and he decided to go back into the world and to teach the Dhamma to those who were ready to listen. He saw that people are like lotuses in a pond at different stages of growth, and he understood that just as some lotuses close to the surface of the water need only the sun’s rays to rise above the surface and fully blossom, so there are some people who need only to hear the noble teaching to win enlightenment and gain perfect liberation of mind. The Buddha then gazed out upon the world with his profound vision. The first part explores the Buddha's mission, the second part talks about his doctrine and the path.
