What does the Bodhisattva Shizhi represent in the world? Is there any classic about him?

The most widely circulated one is the "Yuantong Chapter of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva's Recitation of the Buddha's Name" which is excerpted from "Surangama Sutra".

Master Jingkong has several lectures: including "The Great Meaning of the Yuantong Chapter of Mahasthamaprapta to the Name of the Buddha", "Study Report of the Yuantong Chapter of the Mahasthamaprapta to the Name of the Buddha", "Sparing Notes of the Yuantong Chapter of the Mahasthamaprapta to the Name of the Buddha", etc., which are available for reference.

Attachment: Introduction to the content of "Study Report on the Yuantong Chapter of Mahasthamaprapta's Recitation of the Buddha's Name"

This article "The Yuantong Chapter of Mahasthamaprapta's Recitation of the Buddha's Name" is excerpted from the famous twenty-five chapters in the "Surangama Sutra" Yuantong. This passage is not long. It has 244 words, which is shorter than the Prajna Heart Sutra. Although we have lectured on the Surangama Sutra many times in the past, we have always ignored it in a vague and general way. Later, when we read the "Five Pure Land Sutras", we realized that this chapter is the real center of the Surangama Sutra and is the core of the Surangama Sutra. Essence.

In particular, the old layman Xia Lianju announced in "The Essentials of Pure Cultivation" that Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva, the founder of the Pure Sect, had exactly the same views as Master Yin Guang. The Heart Sutra of the Yan Sutra is also the Heart Sutra of the Pure Land Sect. It is not only the Heart Sutra of the Pure Land Sect, but actually the Heart Sutra of the entire Tripitaka. It is difficult to understand and understand it without going deep into the Tripitaka.

This shows that this sutra is very important. We compiled the handout according to Master Initiation's "Shu Chao". The handout is simpler than "Shu Chao", but every word is very important.
