The Great Safeguard, or Mahaparittam (Maha Pirith Potha) opens the recital and is regarded as being particularly auspicious in bringing safety, peace, and well-being. These texts play a central role in the life of Sri Lankan Buddhism and are also popular in other Theravada Buddhist countries. This book has been prepared in order to provide a reliable and complete text and line-by-line translation of the Catubhanavarapali.
