Description
iPitaka Mon brings the sacred Pali Pitaka (Buddhist canon) to your fingertips in the Mon language—honoring the legacy of the Mon people, who were the first to transmit Buddhism into Southeast Asia. The earliest Pali scriptures in this region were found in Mon scripts, making this translation a bridge between ancient wisdom and modern accessibility.
