| Publisher Description: The Lankavatara Sutra is the key classic for the Chan School of Buddhism, and it is considered to be the most difficult sutra to understand. For a thousand years in Chinese history, very few people ever had a close study into the five factors towards ultimate freedom of mind, the three elements of human nature qualities that form the reasons of existence, the eight senses of the ego consciousness that influence our reactions to the living environment, the truth of non-selfishness, and the always-changing status of materialized existence. The author tells about his own experience in comprehension of these refined elements through an adaptation of a Buddhist master's way of life. |
