Reading in English — change the language from the top bar

A minimal reader for Early Buddhist Texts: the four main Nikāyas plus the earliest layer of the Khuddaka Nikāya, in Pāḷi alongside translation — currently in Pāḷi, English, Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Tamil, and Sinhala. This is a small proof-of-concept slice with 31 suttas so far; more suttas and nikāyas are planned next.
