'Diamond Sutra (Chin-Kang-Ching) or Prajna-Paramita' Summary
The Diamond Sutra, also known as the 'Diamond Cutter Sutra' or 'Vajracchedika Prajnaparamita Sutra,' is a foundational Buddhist text that explores the path to enlightenment through the concept of 'emptiness'. It is presented as a dialogue between the Buddha and his disciple Subhuti, where they discuss the true nature of reality, the illusory nature of suffering, and the role of wisdom in achieving liberation. The Sutra emphasizes that true wisdom, like a diamond, cuts through illusions and reveals the inherent emptiness of all things, leading to the cessation of suffering and the attainment of nirvana. The Sutra's core message is that by understanding the true nature of reality, individuals can break free from the cycle of suffering and reach a state of profound peace and liberation.Book Details
