Abstract | This reprint of the seminal translation by the late Dr. Yoshito S. Hakeda (originally published by Columbia University Press), The Awakening of Faith (Dachengqixinlun) is a comprehensive summary of the essentials of Mahayana Buddhism. The translator’s extensive commentary within the text illuminates the meaning of many passages in this important treatise, which was written in an extremely terse style intended for scholarly monastic readers who would have been well schooled in the principles of Mahayana philosophy and thought. The Awakening of Faith has been a highly regarded and influential text in the development and history of many Buddhist schools in China and Japan, including Chan/Zen, Huayan, Shingon, and Pure Land. |
