The Lotus SÅ«tra is one of the most important sÅ«tras in MahÄ?yÄ?na Buddhism. Translated by KumÄ?rajÄ«va in the 5th century, its teachings have inspired many Buddhist scholars such as Chih-i and SaichÅ? from the Tiantai (Tendai) tradition, DÅ?gen from the Zen tradition and Nichiren the 13th century Kamakura founder and reformer. There is a relative lack of scholarly works that are devoted to an examination of how its philosophical ideas were received and developed throughout history. This book remedies that lack by tracing the origin and development of Lotus SÅ«tra Â thought, and interprets the text from the perspective of the doctrine of Buddha-nature in MahÄ?yÄ?na Buddhism.
