Be Inspired

Prajñapāramitā, personified in female form, is worshipped as the mother of the buddhas, and this scripture–retrieved from the nāga realm–is the lengthiest Prajñapāramitā text in the human world, and is thus considered the most exhaustive account of the Buddha’s teaching on Vulture Peak over a period of–some say–thirty years.
