 +This is a partial index of the similes and metaphors that appear in the suttas available at Access to Insight. Only the imagery that illustrates points of Dhamma is included here; imagery that serves primarily a literary or narrative function is not included (e.g., [[en:tipitaka:sut:kn:thig:thig.13.01.than|Ambapali's description of her long-lost youthful beauty]]). The subject of each image is given in the braces {}. The tilde (~) stands for the head-word in a given entry.
 +
 +Suttas without hyperlinks are those not currently available at Access to Insight; they are included here only for reference.
