This is a mystical / philosophical text. Not an authoritative interpretation — a reading through Niyetname’s calm lens.

Approaching this work

Take your time. Read it not as a doctrine but as a conversation — wherever a line stays with you, pause there. What you don’t understand is often where to linger.

Your intention

With what intention do you approach this text today? You don’t need to write an answer — just ask yourself, for a moment.

Kaynak: The Dhammapada, Max Müller çevirisi, 1881, kamu malı (PD-US) Project Gutenberg

Bu metin mistik-felsefi bir gelenekten geliyor. Niyetname onu otoriter bir öğreti olarak sunmaz; bir mercek olarak okumanı önerir.

DHAMMAPADA

Chapter I. The Twin-Verses

1. All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him, as the wheel follows the foot of the ox that draws the carriage.

2. All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.

Bu metin, kaynağındaki kamu-malı çeviridir; resmî bir kurum çevirisi değildir. Bir mercektir — kehanet, dinî hüküm ya da kesin yargı değildir. Karar senindir.
