Dhammapada. La Voie Du Bouddha (Pocket Book)

Different translations can shift the meaning and mood of these sayings. I wonder what the translator's approach was and how it affects our understanding.

Some lines felt deeply personal and applicable to modern life, while others felt more distant. Which sayings resonated most personally?

Poetry can elevate or simplify complex ideas. I'm curious whether this choice was to evoke emotion or to make the teachings more memorable.
