Mahayana Sutras

Mahayana Sutras are foundational texts of Mahayana Buddhism, emphasizing compassion, wisdom, and the pursuit of enlightenment for all beings. They expand on earlier Buddhist teachings, introducing concepts like bodhisattvas—enlightened beings committed to helping others achieve nirvana. The sutras explore philosophical ideas, ethical practices, and methods for spiritual development, often using poetic and symbolic language. They serve as guides for practitioners seeking not only personal liberation but also to alleviate suffering universally, fostering a compassionate outlook and a sense of interconnectedness among all living beings.
