Description
 
What does it mean to be a Buddha? This new translation of the "Manifestation of the Tathagata" chapter from the Avatamsaka Sutra, considered the most profound and comprehensive Buddhist scripture, offers the reader a rare glimpse of the sublime realm of Buddhahood in language that is rich in meaning and in captive imagery.

Venerable Cheng Chien lucidly introduces the reader to the meaning of Buddhahood and explains the origin, transmission, and special features of the Avatamsaka Sutra. He presents us with an understanding of the stature of the "Manifestation of the Tathagata" chapter in the context of the entire sutra, as well as its relation to other scholastic texts. The present volume is an excellent work.

Manifestation of Tathagata: Buddhahood According to the Avatamsaka Sutra, Cheng Chien Bhikshu (translator), Wisdom Publications, 172 pages, $12.50
