Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Practitioners have momentary glimpses of completeness, and from these, they go to a Master to ask for sincere advice. The typical question is: "How I could replicate these experiences and keep it within myself forever?" The Diamond Sutra is all about this and is a treasure trove of methods and experiences, only if we succeed in understanding and using it. So, in this book you will find insights, meditation techniques and new approaches to understand the maintenance of our deepest understanding and then how to make it bloom and ripen it in our life.

This classic Zen Buddhist collection of 49 koans with commentary by Mumon was originally published in 1934, and later included in Paul Reps and Nyogen Senzaki's popular anthology Zen Flesh, Zen Bones. Due to non-renewal it is currently in the public domain in the US (although other parts of Zen Flesh, Zen Bones are not).
