One by one, the bodhisattvas engage in dialogue with the buddha on the great metaphysical questions that confront them-the nature of ultimate reality, the structure of human consciousness, the characteristics of phenomena, the stages of meditation, and the essential qualities of a buddha. Anderson Roshi offers his reflections on this challenging sutra with the clarity of a scholar and the insight of a practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shambhala Publications, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47033221677296,"sku":"9781930485310","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781930485310_p0.jpg?v=1763638182","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781930485310","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
