Before inquiring into the meaning of the word 'Dhamma Pada', let us first inquire into the meaning of the word 'Dhamma'. But I do not expect to come up with a very deep definition scientifically.
In short, if the word of the Buddha can be understood as Dhamma, it is very valuable. The Supreme Buddha preached something that is beneficial to all the people of the world. It is the word of the Buddha. It is the Dhamma.
So there are 423 stanzas in this great book called Dhammapada.
The purpose of this book is to give you all the advice you need to live life successfully and intelligently. But there are many parables used in giving this advice. Therefore, it is easy for us to understand this advice well.
But there is an important point. That is why it is useless to memorize hundreds of stanzas if they are not adapted to life (studying is not a mistake).
