Householder’s book of discipline presents these two famous discourses of the Buddha- 1, Sigalovada Sutta D. 31, Advice to Sigala, the wealthy young householder of Rajagraha and 2. Dighajanu Sutta, A.8,6,4. Discourses to Dighajanu also known as Byagghappajja, a practical householder head of a big family with many children and enjoying an affluent life.
Both householders requested the Buddha to provide them with a good roadmap to enable them to reach the goal of a meaningful household life, namely, well-being and happiness here and now, in this life, as well as, hereafter, in future lives.
The author has translated the Suttas and provided historical background with tabular analysis earnestly hoping that the householder followers of the Buddha, in particular, and all householders in general, will amply benefit from these exceedingly useful and practical teachings of the Master leading one towards ultimate spiritual freedom, Nibbana!
