The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment
The *Lamrim Chenmo* (Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment), or simply *Lamrim*, was written by Master Tsongkhapa at the request of many practitioners. Its ultimate goal is to guide Buddhist disciples to attain supreme enlightenment, completely liberate themselves from the suffering of samsara, and ultimately help all sentient beings achieve perfect Buddhahood. In 1988, Venerable Rihchang began to sermon on the *Lamrim*. Not only did the monks of the Fuzhi Sangha diligently study and practice it, but lay members also formed a *Lamrim* study group, delving deeper into the *Lamrim* through the collective effort of a group. This treatise is an important text for study and practice within the Fuzhi community.

The "Nanshan Vinaya for Lay Buddhists: Abridged Edition" was compiled by Vinaya Master Daoxuan, who wrote the Nanshan Vinaya. Later, Vinaya Master Yuanzhao added notes to it, making it one of the six major parts of the Nanshan Vinaya. Master Hongyi compiled this book based on it, making it a precious and essential Vinaya collection for lay Buddhists to study and uphold the precepts.
Heart Sutra
The Heart Sutra (Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra) is a classic text expounding the Mahayana Buddhist concepts of emptiness and Prajna (wisdom). Also known as the *Buddha Speaks the Great Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra*, it is often simply called the Heart Sutra. This sutra, with its core teachings on the true nature of all phenomena as elucidated in the *Mahaprajnaparamita Sutra* (both the Great and Small Prajnaparamita Sutras), is a concise classic of just over two hundred characters, making it an extremely important text in the Prajnaparamita Sutra series. It is often considered to be mutually interpretable with the *Diamond Sutra*, another Prajnaparamita Sutra.
Diamond Sutra
The Diamond Sutra, also known as the Vajracchedika Prajnaparamita Sutra, is an important and widely respected and circulated classic text with profound philosophical principles. It symbolizes the invincible power of wisdom and can eliminate all suffering of sentient beings. It is an important Dharma gate for the Buddha to open the true nature of sentient beings.
The Great and Vast Buddha Avatamsaka Sutra
The Avatamsaka Sutra, also known as the Mahayana Amitabha Sutra or the Miscellaneous Flower Sutra, is one of the most important scriptures in Mahayana Buddhism. The Chinese Huayan school of Buddhism is based on this sutra, taking the profound meanings of dependent origination and the unobstructed nature of all phenomena as its core tenets. The name "Avatamsaka" is a metaphor for the Buddha. Just as the myriad practices of the causal stage are like flowers, adorning the fruition stage, so too are the myriad virtues of the Buddha's fruition stage, adorning the Dharmakaya, hence the name Avatamsaka. The Avatamsaka Sutra is one of the most important scriptures for Mahayana Buddhist practice.
This simplified and proofread electronic version of the "Avatamsaka Sutra" is based on the photographic reproduction of the "Mahāvaipulya Buddhāvataṃsaka Sūtra" (80 fascicles), translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Śikṣānanda from Khotan during the Tang Dynasty, found in the Mahayana Avatamsaka section, No. 0084, of the "Qianlong Tripitaka."

大悲心陀罗尼经
此咒是观音菩萨微妙心印。若人书写六字大明咒者,即同书写三藏法宝;若人得念六字大明咒者,即同讽诵七轴灵文。又能开智慧门,能救百难苦,三世业冤,悉皆清静,一切罪障,尽得消除,解脱生死,安乐法身。然而念咒亦有密诀。故第一声中叫唵之,乃以呼吾身毗卢遮那佛也。第二声东而嘛之,乃以呼吾身不动尊佛也。第三声南而呢之,乃以呼吾身宝生佛也。第四声西而叭之,乃以呼吾身无量寿佛也。第五声北而弥之,乃以呼吾身不空成就佛也。第六声复上返于喉而作吽音者,乃以呼吾身大势至金刚也。久则五炁归元,即成就不思议功德而证圆通也。
