The Lotus of the Wonderful Law, or The Lotus Gospel: Saddharma Pundarika Sutra / Mao-Fa Lien Hua Ching
by William Edward Soothill
On This Page
Description
The "Lotus of the Wonderful (or Mystic) Law" is the most important religious book of the Far East, and has been described as "The Gospel of Half Asia". It is also the chief scripture of Buddhism in China, and therefore the chief source of consolation of the many millions of Buddhists in East Asia. It is justifiable to consider it as one of the greatest and most formative books of the world, and the text is here translated for the use of the Western student whilst an endeavour is made to show more reveal the contour of the most spiritual drama known in the Far East. show lessTags
