Book Summary
The Maharatnakuta Sutra is one of the five major sutra groups in the Mahayana
canon. Of the two great schools of Buddhism, Mahayana has the greatest number of
adherents worldwide-it prevails among the Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Tibetans,
and Vietnames-and contains within it a number of movements, notably Zen which
have been of growing interest in the West in recent decades. Yet despite this
increased attention and enormous following, translations of Mahayana scriptures
have been scarce and fragmentary; clearly, a comprehensive translation of a
major work within the canon was called for.
