This book is Chinese Rendering by Master Paramiti of Central North India at Chih Chih Monastery, Canton, China, A.D. 705. Commentary(abridged) by Ch'an Master Han shan (1546-1623).Translated by Upasaka Lu K???uan Yu(R)(Charles Luk). The Shurangama Sutra was spoken by the Buddha in response to an incident involving the venerable Sudatta encountering emotional obstacles. Its main contents are as follows: Tathagatagarbha Thought: Emphasizes the inherent purity of sentient beings, the uncreated and indestructible Buddha-nature. It holds that the true heart of all sentient beings is the true heart of Tathagata, the essence and origin of all phenomena. Doctrine of Mind Nature: Points out the original purity and marvelous awakened nature of the minds of sentient beings. Due to ignorance and delusion, the original mind is lost. Through practice and awakening, one can restore the original pure mind nature, achieving liberation and Buddhahood. Practice View: Presents a unique set of practice methods, including the "two decisive definitions" and the "six means to end one's troubles," aimed at helping practitioners realize the illusory nature of the six senses, purifying them through practice, and ultimately reaching the state of enlightenment. Integration of Exoteric and Esoteric Teachings: Integrates elements of exoteric and esoteric teachings, providing in-depth Buddhist theoretical knowledge and esoteric practices, such as establishing sacred sites and reciting mantras. View of the Generation of All Things: Denies the viewpoint of the "four elements" and "seven elements" as the origin of all things, emphasizing the pervasive nature of the marvelous true nature of Tathagata, which is the ultimate basis of all things in the Dharma realm. Buddha-nature Doctrine: Holds that all sentient beings have the potential to attain Buddhahood. Through practice and awakening, by removing the obstacles of ignorance and delusion, one can restore their original Buddha-nature, achieving Buddhahood.
