Live: Vimalakirti Sutra & Sigalovada Sutta

The Vimalakirti Sutra teaches the nature of the highest truth. It contains a quintessence of the Mahayana doctrines, as well as providing insight into views attributed to the Tantrayana.

The Sigalovada Sutta is an exposition of the domestic and social duty for laity according to the Buddhist point of view. It is a useful guide for a harmonious society — something we’ve all anticipated to see in this Age of Degeneration.
