Features: The Platform Sutra (Tancheng) is a classic text of Chan (Zen) Buddhism in China. The author Huineng is the founder of Chan Buddhism, advocating "illuminating the mind and seeing one's nature," which is also known as "pointing directly to the heart" and "achieving Buddhahood by seeing one's nature." This book is based on the Dunhuang manuscript (the Fahuai edition) annotated and revised by Japanese scholars Shinsho and Kōda Ren???ō, with reference to three adapted editions by Huixin, Qiesong, and Zongbao for commentary and annotation.
