The Lankavatara Sutra (With Active Table of Contents)

4.7/5 ( ratings)

"The Lankavatara Sutra draws upon the concepts and doctrines of Yogacara and Tathagatagarbha. The most important doctrine issuing from the Lankavatara Sutra is that of the primacy of consciousness and the teaching of consciousness as the only reality. The sutra asserts that all the objects of the world, and the names and forms of experience, are merely manifestations of the mind. The Lankavatara Sutra describes the various tiers of consciousness in the individual, culminating in the "storehouse consciousness" , which is the base of the individual's deepest awareness and his tie to the cosmic." -The Lankavatara Sutra
