An Overview of the Buddhadharma

An Overview of the BuddhadharmaFrom May 3, 1993 to May 13, 1993, at the Rainbow Villa Retreat Center in North Bend, Washington, Living Buddha Lian-sheng (Master Sheng-yen Lu), the founder of the True Buddha School, gave a series of talks on the subject of an overview of the Buddhadharma. In the numerical system outlined below, the Living Buddha presents not only a clear and concise understanding to a profound teaching, but also a concrete way to reach Enlightenment.

  • The initial step of faith, comprehension, practice, and realization
  • The two doorways of theoretical versus practical approaches
  • The three non-outflow studies of discipline, stability, and wisdom
  • The four noble truths.
  • The five roots and five positive agents.
  • The six perfections.
  • The seven factors of Enlightenment.
  • The eightfold noble path.
  • The ten powers of Buddhas.
  • The twelve links that constitute the chain of conditioned arising.

If you're looking to begin practicing the True Buddha Dharma or have begun and want to deepen your knowledge, An Overview of the Buddhadharma together with its companion volume, A Complete and Detailed Exposition on the True Buddha Tantric Dharma, represent the best place to begin furthering your knowledge. In His unique, easy-to-follow style Grand Master will lay the foundation you need to base your beliefs and gain the right understanding. He draws on the fundamental teachings given by Buddha Shakyamuni which underpin all the schools of Buddhism and without the knowledge of these essential doctrines one's knowledge of the way will always be incomplete.
