妙法莲华经【英】

Saddharmapundarika Sutra (The Lotus Sutra)

定义

简称《法华经》，在古印度、尼泊尔等地长期流行。是佛陀释迦牟尼晚年说教，宣讲内容至高无上，明示不分贫富贵贱、人人皆可成佛。

The Lotus Sutra is one of the most popular and influential Mahayana sutra in ancient India and Nepal. Its title is usually abbreviated to Fahuajing (法华经). It purports to record the sermons of Shakyamuni Buddha in his later life, which emphasize that people are all equal regardless of their socioeconomic status and that everyone is able to become a Buddha, mostly in the form of parables.
