<br/><br/> "金剛般若波羅蜜經" by Kumarajiva and Kunshan Huang is a Mahayana Buddhist sutra translated into Chinese in 401 CE. The work presents Buddha's discourse to the monk Subhuti on profound wisdom that cuts through illusion to reach ultimate reality. It explores the emptiness of all phenomena, liberation without attachment, and the nature of self. This influential text became central to Chan Buddhism and inspired a rich tradition of devotional practice across East Asia. A 868 CE printed copy remains the oldest known printed book in existence.
