🌺 May 30, 2025 — Daily Topic THE AVATAṂSAKA SŪTRA — THE INFINITE NET OF INTERBEING The Avataṃsaka Sūtra (also known as the Flower Garland Sūtra) is one of the most majestic and profound scriptures in the Mahāyāna tradition. It is said to have been spoken by the Buddha immediately after his enlightenment, but only great bodhisattvas were capable of understanding it — hence, it was hidden from the wider world for generations. ⸻ 🌌 Core Teachings: • It presents the interpenetrating universe, where all phenomena reflect all others, without obstruction or separation • It introduces Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, who guides practitioners with the Ten Great Vows • Its central philosophy: “One is all. All is one.” “A single dust particle contains the entire Dharma realm.” ⸻

🌱 Why is this sūtra so significant? • It lays the foundation for the Huayan School of Buddhist philosophy • It influenced Zen and other Mahāyāna streams in East Asia • It offers a non-dual, holographic view of reality, where everything is interconnected and mutually arising ⸻ 🪷 “All dharmas are Buddha-dharmas. Every place is a place of awakening.” The Avataṃsaka Sūtra is more than words — it is a cosmic vision, a symphony of wisdom, and a mirror of the awakened mind.
