Download or read book The Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch written by Philip Yampolsky and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Platform Sutra records the teachings of Hui-neng, the Sixth Patriarch, who is revered as one of the two great figures in the founding of Chan (Zen) Buddhism. This translation is the definitive English version of the eighth-century Chan classic. Phillip B. Yampolsky has based his translation on the Tun-huang manuscript, the earliest extant version of the work. A critical edition of the Chinese text is given at the end of the volume. Dr. Yampolsky also furnishes a lengthy and detailed historical introduction which contains much information hitherto unavailable even to scholars, and provides the context essential to an understanding of Hui-neng's work. He gives an account of the history and legends of Ch'an Buddhism, with particular attention to the traditions associated with Hui-neng, quoting or summarizing the most important narratives. He then discusses the various texts of the Platform Sutra, and analyzes its contents. The reprint edition adds a new introduction to the translation, situating it in the literature and relating it to the companion volume. The glossary has been updated from Wade-Giles to pinyin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two classic Zen Buddhist texts that present the foundational teachings of the tradition—now collected in one volume for the modern practitioner The Diamond Sutra, composed in India in the fourth century CE, is one of the most treasured works of Buddhist literature and is the oldest existing printed book in the world. It is known as the Diamond Sutra 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 format of this important sutra is presented as a conversation between the Buddha and one of his disciples. 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. He was a poor, illiterate woodcutter who is said to have attained enlightenment upon hearing a recitation of the Diamond Sutra. Together, these two scriptures present the central teaching of the Zen Buddhist tradition and are essential reading for all students of Buddhism.

Download or read book The Sixth Patriarch s Dharma Treasure Platform Sutra written by Linbergh Chu and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has not been, probably will not be, an instance that a Buddhist patriarchship is entrusted to a person who is completely illiterate. This situation happened to Hu�n�ng who assumed Chinese Buddhist Sixth Patriarch in 661 AD. During his thirty-seven-year preaching life, his teaching and the dialogues with other cultivators were recorded and compiled into this sutra named The Sixth Patriarch's Dharma Treasure Platform Sutra. The succinct sutra explicitly explores the true essence of human mind. It interprets the highest level of the dharma and breaks the bias and misconceptions that people might often have. While formality was the dominating practice adopted by most of the cultivators at the time, Hu�n�ng alone advocated formless practice in which the cultivators focus on their mind rather than the forms like motionless sitting or mere chanting of the sutras. His teaching is pragmatic and straightforward. This sutra is doubtless an indispensable textbook for all levels of the spiritual seekers.
Download or read book The Altar Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch written by Daniel Scharpenburg and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hui-neng (638-713) is one of the most respected and revered figures in Buddhist history. He was an illiterate woodcutter who suddenly attained Enlightenment upon hearing the Diamond Sutra. He became the Sixth Patriarch in the Ch'an tradition. He is regarded as the creator of the Sudden Enlightenment philosophy. He embodies the fact that anyone can attain Enlightenment, regardless of education, class, or lineage. This collection of talks is called the Platform or Altar Sutra. It is the only Chinese Buddhist text that has been given the title Sutra. This new translation differs from most. I have placed Huineng's autobiography at the end and his wonderful teachings at the beginning. Usually the opposite is what is done. It's not that the Master's story isn't important to me. Of course it is. But, I think, far too often we caught up in hero worship and we pay attention to the story instead of the teachings. The story matters, but the teachings are what we need to remember.I have also gone through the text and taken out some things that were repetitive and I have used modern language whenever possible. The point of this was to make the text more accessible to modern readers. This text can be read and studied both by lifelong students of the Dharma and by beginners. This is not intended for academics, as in some cases I took poetic license with the original text. It is intended for students of the Dharma.Numerous versions of this text are available and I hope mine is in some measure unique and helps with spiritual progress. I have created version that is very short and easy to read.
