Why is the Diamond sutra important in the Buddhist religion?
The Diamond Sutra is a lesson in the Mahayanic (Great Vehicle) tradition which teaches the need to avoid mental attachment. The writer identifies the text to be a transcript of a lesson delivered by the Buddha to his disciple Subhuti. Historically a copy of the Diamond Sutra is the oldest known printed book (circa 868 CE) The term "Diamond" refers to the diamond sword, an allusion to the ease which Buddhist teachings cut through confusion and misunderstandings. The Sutra talks of the nature of perception, reality, enlightenment and compassion. An interesting point is that taking pride in one's compassion or in the work one does to save others is a form of attachment, and should be avoided. This is somewhat like the phrase used by the Christians' Jesus some 500 years later when he used the example of a Pharisee praying saying "God, I thank you that I am not like other men - robbers, evildoers, adulterers..." (Luke 18: 11-12)
