    Suttra / Sutta / Text resource

    I'll post this here for everyone's perusal, however I'd also like to get Jundo's thoughts on the content of some of these translations and how faithful they are to the original ideas.

    This might even have already been posted once before, but it's past midnight, and I am sleepy so please forgive me if I am redundant. :mrgreen:

    101 Suttas and Sutras, each with 10,001 teachings ... sometimes the very same message, sometimes in seeming direct contradiction with each other's words ... translated by many diverse voices ... taught by a variety of teachers, each preaching in his own flavor ... read by a million unique eyes ...

    Are they all faithful to the Original Idea?

    Sit and find out.

    Gassho, J
