About the Book: The book contains the legendary dialogue between the Greek King Milinda (traditionally identified as Menander) and the Buddhist monk Nagasena, believed to have occurred in the Greater Gandhara region after Alexander the Great’s campaign. While its historical authenticity is uncertain, the Milindapañha has endured for over two millennia as a revered text in Theravada Buddhism. The conversation features King Milinda’s probing, skeptical inquiries about the nature of the world, kingship, and knowledge, to which Nagasena offers insights grounded in Buddhist teachings. The dialogue culminates in the transformation of the curious Greek king into a committed Buddhist. This volume provides a modern English translation alongside the original Pali text.
