The Diamond Sutra and the Sutra of Hui-Neng

Trans. by A.F. Price & Wong Mou-lam. 168 pg., 6" x 9" paperback. The Diamond Sutra is so named because its teaching is said to be like a diamond that cuts away all dualistic thought, releasing one from attachment to objects and bringing one to the further shore of enlightenment. The Sutra of Hui-neng contains the autobiography of Hui-neng, often regarded as the true father of the Zen tradition.
