TAOSHOBUDDHA TALK ON THE DIAMOND SUTRA OF BUDDHA PART 2
Truth has to be said as it is. The moment you compromise or the moment you bring truth to the ordinary level of human consciousness, it loses its soul. It becomes superficial, it becomes a dead thing. You cannot bring truth to the level of human beings. Instead human beings have to be led to the level of truth. That is Buddha's great work.
Twenty-five centuries ago, just some day early in the morning - just like this day - this sutra was born. Twelve hundred and fifty monks were present. It happened in the city of Sravasti. It was a great city of those days. The word Sravasti means the city of glory. It was one of the glorious cities of ancient India. It had nine hundred thousand families in it. Now that city has completely disappeared. A very small village exists and you will not find even its name on any map. Even the name has disappeared. Now it is called Sahet-Mahet. It is impossible to believe that such a great city ever existed there. This is the way of life. Things go on changing. Cities turn into cemeteries, cemeteries turn into cities. Life is a flux.
Buddha must have loved this city of Sravasti, because out of forty-five years of his ministry he stayed in Sravasti for nearly twenty-five years. He must have loved the people. The people must have been of a much evolved consciousness. All the great sutras of Buddha, almost all, were born in Sravasti.
This Sutra - The Diamond Sutra - was also born in Sravasti. The Sanskrit name of this sutra is Vajrachchedika Prajnaparamita Sutra.
It comes from Vajra meaning thunderbolt; chedika meaning that which penetrates; prajna -- meaning wisdom; paramita -- meaning perfect or total. It means perfection of wisdom which cuts like a thunderbolt. If you allow, Buddha can cut you like a thunderbolt. He can behead you. He can kill you and help you to be reborn.
