Summary: The Udāna ("Inspired Utterances") is the third book of the khuddaka nikaya. In the local corpus it is currently available as a raw BJT Pali/Sinhala source reader, preserving the native tipitaka.lk page-entry segmentation rather than a fully edited wiki text rendering.
Overview
The Udāna is a collection of short prose settings followed by inspired utterances attributed to the Buddha. The BJT raw source presents the text in eight vaggas. The opening Bodhivagga begins at Uruvelā near the Nerañjarā after awakening, with the first three suttas centred on dependent arising.
This page is an overview page only. The raw BJT Pali source and Sinhala translation have been ingested and reviewed, but a full text-page presentation with per-sutta headings, normalized numbering, cross-references, and supporting pages is deferred.
Source reader
The current raw reader uses BJT page-entry identifiers such as kn-ud:130.8. The BJT Pali and Sinhala native entry counts do not align perfectly in this extract, so the parallel reader uses a union of segment identifiers and displays explicit missing-edition placeholders where one side has no matching row.
Structure
At this overview stage the local wiki treats the Udāna as a single Khuddaka source unit. The raw source records eight vaggas: Bodhivagga, Mucalindavagga, Nandavagga, Meghiyavagga, Soṇavagga, Jaccandhavagga, Cullavagga, and Pāṭaligāmiyavagga. Each unit should remain source-reader backed until a later batch normalizes per-sutta headings and numbering.
Later batches should split this overview into reviewed per-sutta pages or anchors only after the numbering, headings, and citation conventions have been normalized against the raw source.
Textual status
This page is backed by the reviewed raw-only Tipitaka.lk Stage 1 ingest for Udāna. The batch extracted 819 BJT Pali rows and 821 BJT Sinhala rows from pathnirvana/tipitaka.lk; the independent raw-ingest review found no extraction defects and explicitly accepted the two-row Pali/Sinhala mismatch as a source-alignment fact. Sinhala republication status remains pending verification, so the Sinhala text is exposed locally through the reader but is not treated here as a public republication-ready translation.
