The Lotus Sutra through the 7 Parables
Compiled by Rev. Takamasa Yamamura and Dan Liu
Translated by Dean Makinodan
In spite of the fact that the Lotus Sutra is most central to our Order, there is no one publication that provides a succinct and easy-to-understand introduction into the magnificent universe of truth that resides within that Sutra.
Through the Seven Parables in a creative cartoon rendition, the reader is introduced to central ideas of the Sutra.
Moreover, an overview of the Lotus Sutra and understandings of the function of its parables are provided.
