Zen Buddhism's favourite figure is probably Hui-Neng, an illiterate woodcutter who became enlightened in a mere flash, and who founded the "Sudden Enlightenment" school. The Sutra of Hui-Neng, Grand Master of Zen is a Zen classic that proves attaining enlightenment has nothing to do with one's social background or education. Hui-Neng's writings are the only Zen collection of talks to be granted the title of sutra, or scripture. This sublime edition also includes the first English translation of Hui-Neng's commentary on the Diamond Sutra. | The Sutra Of Hui-neng Grand Master Of Zen by THOMAS CLEARY, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
