Product Description
Synopsis
"The Diamond Sutra" was composed in India in the 4th century C.E. and is one of the treasured books in a vast body of Buddhist literature called the "Perfection of Wisdon Sutras". It is known as such because its teachings are said to be like diamonds that cut away all dualistic thought, releasing one from the attachment to objects and bringing one to the further shore of enlightenment. "The Sutra of Hui Neng", also known as the "Platform Sutra", contains the autobiography of a pivotal figure in Zen history and some of the most profound passages of Zen literature. Hui Neng (638-713) was the sixth patriarch of Zen in China, but is often regarded as the true father of the Zen tradition. A poor, illiterate woodcutter, he is said to have attained enlightenment upon hearing a recitation of "The Diamond Sutra". He later became successor to the fifth patriarch, Hung Yen.
