Tools 5 found in our last check

  • search

    Search the Pali Canon on dhamma.gift by keyword/substring or REGEX (min 3 letters, no semantic search). Patterns like "kata.*dukkha", "vucc.*dukkha", "katha.*dukkha" find the canon's own definitions and expositions of a term. Returns a CENSUS of every matching sutta — id, title,…

  • compare_translations

    One segment of the canon in the Pali root and every available translation side by side. Use a segment id from search/get_text, e.g. "mn129:21.3". Sujato (en_sujato) is excluded unless named in translators.

  • list_structure

    What texts exist. Without arguments: collections (sutta/vinaya/abhidhamma/khuddaka), books by id prefix with sutta counts, and translation languages with translators. With prefix (e.g. "mn", "sn56", "an4"): the suttas under it with titles.
