Sangharakshita's First Encounter with the Sutra

Bhante Sangharakshita described the Diamond Sutra as one of two books 'by which I have been most profoundly influenced.' We could see it as the keystone in the central arch of the architecture of his thinking about the Dharma. In this talk, Satyalila introduces the Sutra in its context of the Perfection of Wisdom (or Prajnaparamita) tradition and explores its significance for Sangharakshita, and for us. Talk given on a Bristol Buddhist Centre Sangha Retreat at Adhisthana, 2019. ***
