Description
Saddharma-Pundarîka, or, the Lotus of the True Law is a book translated by H. Kern, first published in 1884 as Volume XXI of the Sacred Books of the East series. This important work brings to life one of the most celebrated scriptures of Mahāyāna Buddhism, the Lotus Sutra, based on a Sanskrit manuscript from Nepal. The Lotus Sutra is often regarded as a crown jewel of Buddhist literature, teaching that enlightenment is attainable by all beings and emphasizing compassion, wisdom, and the unity of the Buddha’s message. Its vivid parables and symbolic imagery have inspired centuries of spiritual practice and devotion across East Asia, shaping traditions in China, Japan, and beyond. H. Kern’s translation marked one of the first serious attempts to present this profound text to an English-speaking audience, opening the way for further study and appreciation of Buddhist scripture in the West. For readers seeking a deeper understanding of Buddhist philosophy, ancient religious texts, or the foundations of Mahāyāna thought, this volume offers both spiritual richness and historical significance.
