The Diamond Sutra is considered a most significant contributor to the Mahayana Buddhist tradition, being the report of an extensive discourse between the Buddha and a senior disciple, Subhuti. The date of the original Sutra’s Sanskrit composition is lost in time, but the earliest Chinese translations, upon which this interpretation is based, date from the early 5th Century. The author’s introduction and the ancient text are accompanied by numerous footnotes, providing valuable insights into many of Buddhism’s most beguiling aspects
