This book is a reference to learn about the Agong Sutra, which is not very familiar in Japan, and the process of establishment and propagation of Mahayana Buddhism.

I am also interested in what the Agong Sutra is and how and when it came to Japan and how it was read, so I really appreciated this book. The detailed yet easy-to-understand explanations make this book an excellent read for those who want to learn more about Buddhism.

The process of establishment and propagation of Mahayana Buddhism will also be explained in an easy-to-understand manner. This book clarifies the nature of the Buddhism that was introduced to Japan and the differences between the Buddhism practiced in Japan and the primitive Buddhism of India.

It is definitely an excellent reference book on what Buddhism is all about.

In fact, until I read this book, I knew very little about Dr. Nakamura. I was surprised to learn that he is a man of truly exceptional achievements.

Reading this book, I was also struck by Dr. Nakamura's way of looking at the world from a larger perspective.

This book is a very significant work that will make you think about what Buddhism is all about. I highly recommend this book. You will be amazed at the different dimensions of his achievements.

本書は中村元先生の講義録を基にして作られた作品です。中村元先生は１９９９年に亡くなられました。その中村元先生の講義の雰囲気を感じられる本書はまさに貴重な一冊となっています。

Gen Nakamura's teachings are unique in that he discusses Buddhism not only in terms of ideology, but also in terms of historical background and his actual experiences in India. He shares many interesting topics in a language that is easy to understand, even for the novice student. This book is sure to be a good introduction to Buddhism.

This book is a great introduction for those who want to learn the basics of Buddhism. We encourage you to pick up a copy.
