The Study On Ideas Of No Dwelling In Everything Of The Diamond Sutra

In the early period when Buddhism was introduced to China, Buddhism was always influenced by traditional Chinese thoughts. The non-systematic understanding of Chinese monks with regard to the Indian concept of Prajna and Sunyata thus gave rise to six different schools and seven different sects. Until the arrival of the great Indian Mahayana Buddhist master Kumarajiva to China and after the establishment of the sutra translation centre to retranslated the Prajna sutras; the Chinese Prajna schools gradually became orthodox. Thus then caused Buddhist thoughts to be an inseparable part of Chinese traditional thoughts.This gave rise to the overall situation whereby the Confucianists and the Buddhists neither gave in to each other and mutually merged into the Chinese Culture.The Diamond Sutra's complete title is Vajracchedika Prajna Paramita Sutra and its main contents is a record of the conversation between Buddha Shakyamuni and his disciple Subhuti. It is a very widely read sutra in China and this research will be based on Kumarajiva's translation. This research will pay emphasis to the thoughts of non-attachment and to explain that the real essence of the Prajna wisdom is in 'non-attachment' and 'non-attachment to forms'.
