| | The author draws materials and examples from the Hinayana Buddhist literature and especially from the Paramatthadipani (The Elucidation of the Highest Meaning) on the Petavatthu (Preta Stories), that is the commentary on the Petavatthu which is one of the books of the Khuddaka Nikaya, written by Dhammapala of Kancipura (Conjevaram). | | | The belief in the existence of departed ancestors and the presentation of offerings to them have formed a part of Hindu domestic religion and, to gratify this persistent belief, Buddhism recognised the world of "pretas" (ghosts or spirits). | | | This short book discusses the belief in "pretas" (ghosts or spirits) among the Buddhists of ancient India and Sri Lanka. |

| Â | What the Buddha Said |
| | Not to do evil, to cultivate merit, to purify one's mind - this is the Teaching of the Buddhas. | | | Those who are mindful do not die; those who are not mindful are as if already dead. | | | You yourselves should make the effort; the Tathagatas (Buddhas) only can show the way. |

| | According to another classification the whole of the Vinaya Pitaka and the Abhidhamma Pitaka and all the teachings of the Buddha, not included in the remaining four Nikáyas, are regarded as forming the Khuddaka Nikáya (DA.i.23; Sp.i.27). | | | The Díghabhánakas refused to accept the authenticity of the Khuddaka-Pátha, Cariyápitaka, and the Apadána, and included the other books as part of the Abhidhamma Pitaka. |

| | We read, for example in the "Verses of Uplift" (Khuddaka Nikaya, Minor Anthologies), Ch V, 3, that, when the Buddha was staying near Rajagaha, in Bamboo Grove, a leper, named Suppabuddha, saw from afar that the Buddha was teaching dhamma to a great many people. | | | Not all people were ready to grasp what paramattha dhammas are, and therefore the Buddha would give them a "gradual discourse", or a discourse "in due order". | | | We read in the "Theragatha" (Psalms of the Brothers of the Khuddaka Nikaya), in Canto IV, 186, about the "Elder" Nagasamala who developed mindfulness and right understanding naturally, also when he was walking for almsfood. |
