Excerpt from Buddhist Mah�y�na Texts

Chinese translations Of these texts were known to exist not only in China, but also in Japan, and there were in several cases more than one translation of the same text. But it was not known, nor even suspected, that the Sanskrit originals of some of them had been preserved in the temples and monasteries of that distant island.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the heart of Mahayana Buddhism, a branch of Buddhist philosophy that emerged centuries after the passing of the historical Buddha. It presents translations of key Mahayana texts, including the Sukhavati-vyuha and the Amitayur-dhyana-sutra, which have profoundly shaped Buddhist thought and practice, particularly in East Asia. The author explores the Mahayana concept of Sukhavati, the Pure Land or Land of Bliss, a celestial realm presided over by the Buddha Amitabha. The texts translated in this book describe the origins and characteristics of Sukhavati, emphasizing its accessibility through faith and devotion to Amitabha. This contrasts with the earlier Theravada tradition, which emphasizes individual effort and the gradual accumulation of merit on the path to enlightenment. This book offers valuable insights into the historical development of Buddhist thought, shedding light on the transition from the emphasis on individual liberation to the Mahayana ideal of universal salvation. It explores profound philosophical concepts such as the nature of reality, the illusory nature of the phenomenal world, and the role of compassion in the pursuit of enlightenment. By examining these foundational Mahayana texts, the book invites readers to contemplate the nature of existence, the possibility of attaining enlightenment, and the significance of cultivating compassion and wisdom on the path to liberation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333497095_0
