The Threefold Lotus Sutra: A Modern Translation for… door Michio Shinozaki
Not a fan of either the Sutra or the translation. The Sutra rips the experiential heart out of Buddhism and replaces it with claims to immortality. It's ilke Oprah for Buddhism: "You get a Buddhahood! You get a Buddhahood!" Meanwhile, the translation goes out of its way to eliminate anything offensive and un-PC, resulting in unnecessary modernization. The one saving grace is an excellent introductory essay by Brook Zipporyn.
