Description

A text of basic importance, the Mahayana Buddhist Lankavatara Sutra (c. 400 AD) contains the fundamental principles of Mahayana and is famous for its exposition of the Mind-only doctrine of Vijnana-vada. Accompanied by elaborate notes and critical apparatus, Suzuki's translation is the definitive English version of this intricate Sanskrit text.
