À propos de cet audio

The Diamond Sutra, often referred to as the ‘Diamond Cutter Sutra’ or ‘Vajracchedika Prajnaparamita Sutra,’ stands as a monumental Buddhist text and is celebrated as the world’s oldest printed book. Recognized by the British Library as “the earliest dated printed book,” this invaluable manuscript was penned in Sanskrit and uncovered in 1900 from The Cave of a Thousand Buddhas, a secret library in Dunhuang, China. The Sutra captures profound dialogues between the Buddha and his devoted disciple Subhuti, exploring essential Buddhist principles such as emptiness and nirvana. At its core, the Sutra conveys that wisdom, much like a diamond, enables practitioners to perceive the true nature of reality and liberate themselves from suffering. For further exploration of the extensive reference notes, please refer to the online text. Special thanks to Kazbek for the Italian poetry recorded in the introduction.
