It was recorded posthumously by his disciples in six hundred fascicles of approximately five million words and is regarded as the largest canon in Buddhism. The Sanskrit original was translated into Chinese by Xuanzang (Hs?n-tsang) during the seventh century (from 660 through 663). This text is now available in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Great Prajna Paramita Sutra\u003c\/em\u003e is important not only because of its extensive teaching, but because it explains what the great bodhisattva, the great bodhisattva path of cultivation, and the great bodhisattva vehicle are. It depicts, manifests, and provides guidance on how one should learn to become a bodhisattva-and eventually a Buddha-transcending self-interest to reach a state of emptiness, selflessness, and nonattachment. Regardless of where you are on the path to enlightenment, you will be nourished by its parables and dialogues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naichen Chen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798887471907\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wheatmark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Naichen Chen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45180701245695,"sku":"9798887471907","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dbabcc4d-89aa-4fc1-9e26-2a2714ca27e6.jpg?v=1712898461","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-great-prajna-paramita-sutra-naichen-chen-9798887471907","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
