开悟的经 Enligthening Sutra




师尊说,这部经是开悟的经典。
GM said that this sutra is enlightening sutra.



楞伽经(梵文:लंकावतारसूत्र Lankāvatāra-sūtra),汉译为《楞伽阿跋多罗宝经》、《入楞伽经》、《大乘入楞伽经》。

大乘佛法中综合了‘虚妄唯识系’及‘真常唯心系’之重要经典,亦即说明唯心如来藏阿赖耶识之教义。属于如来藏学派,与《解深密经》同为论述唯识思想的重要经典。


经题解释

楞伽(梵文:Lankā)的字面意思,一是指珍宝,二是指不可入、不可往的危险处。

最早出于《罗摩衍那》,是个地名,指锡兰岛
在岛上有个国家,称楞伽国,或楞伽城。

罗摩衍那》认为,在锡兰岛上有个楞伽山,山上居住了很多罗刹、夜叉,人皆不敢前往,故称为危险处。

作珍宝解释时,释迦毗楞伽宝原为帝释天所持有之宝石,又作红宝石解释。

第二个说法,楞伽是山名,或城名。
释迦牟尼曾至此处,向夜叉王说法,因此称此经为楞伽经。

阿跋多罗者是指入、无上之义,全意是佛陀入此圣足山[1]所说之宝经。




The Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra (Sanskrit: लंकावतारसूत्र; traditional Chinese: 楞伽經; pinyin: Léngqié Jīng) is a sutra of Mahāyāna Buddhism.

The sūtra recounts a teaching primarily between the Buddha and a bodhisattvanamed Mahāmati ("Great Wisdom"). 

The sūtra is set in Laṅkā, the island fortress capital of Rāvaṇa, the king of rākṣasas
The title of this text roughly translates as, "Scripture of the Descent into Laṅkā."

The Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra figured prominently in the development of Chinese, Tibetan and Japanese Buddhism. It is notably an important sūtra in Chinese Chán and its Japanese version, Zen.
