Since its appearance in China in the third century, "The Lotus
Sutra" has been regarded as one of the most illustrious scriptures
in the Mahayana Buddhist canon. The object of intense veneration
among generations of Buddhists in China, Korea, Japan, and other
parts of the world, it has had a profound impact on the great works
of Japanese and Chinese literature, attracting more commentary than
any other Buddhist scripture.
As Watson notes in the introduction to his remarkable
translation, " "The Lotus Sutra" is not so much an integral work as
a collection of religious texts, an anthology of sermons, stories,
and devotional manuals, some speaking with particular force to
persons of one type or in one set of circumstances, some to those
of another type or in other circumstances. This is no doubt why it
has had such broad and lasting appeal over the ages and has
permeated so deeply into the cultures that have been exposed to
it."
