This is an edition of the ""Petavatthu,"" edited by Professor I.P. Minayeff. The ""Petavatthu"" is a Buddhist scripture, a collection of stories in the Pali language about the afterlife of beings reborn as petas (hungry ghosts) due to misdeeds in their past lives. These stories illustrate the karmic consequences of actions and highlight the importance of ethical conduct. This edition, prepared by the esteemed Indologist Ivan Pavlovich Minayeff, makes this important Pali text accessible to scholars and students of Buddhism. A valuable resource for understanding early Buddhist beliefs and practices, ""Petavatthu"" offers insights into the moral and cosmological worldview of the Theravada tradition.
