Composed in about the second century CE, The Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra tells the story of a householder named Vimalakirti who lived a worldly life while following the Bodhisattva path. This sutra is particularly applicable to Western students of Buddhism because it teaches that people in the secular life can practice Buddhism as effectively as members of monastic communities. The translator provides an accurate and accessible text complete with explanatory notes and a glossary.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52158672765216,"sku":"NEW1570629714","price":22.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61aGWxFGMrL.jpg?v=1786082899","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/ordinary-enlightenment-a-translation-of-the-vimalakirti-nirdesa-sutra-1570629714","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
