Vimalakirti Sutra

VIMALAKIRTI
Buddhist Practice and Civilian Life

The Vimalakirti Sutra is a seminal
text in the Mahayana Buddhism
of Tibet, China, and Japan known
for its challenge to monastic
piety in distinction to the life
of the lay-person. How does a
tradition maintain the integrity
of its insight and also engage
the lives of ordinary people?

Vimalakirti offers a response.
