About this book
Summary
The Universal Worthy Bodhisattva Sutra is the closing text of the Threefold Lotus Sutra—the final benediction after 28 chapters of the Buddha's ultimate teaching. Here, the great Bodhisattva Universal Worthy (Samantabhadra) rides in on his six-tusked white elephant to vow protection for all who uphold the Lotus Sutra. This Blues interpretation brings that vow home to the heart. The cosmic imagery of celestial beings, dharani spells, and repentance practices is rendered in the direct, soulful language of the American Blues tradition—where confession, redemption, and protection aren't abstract doctrines but lived experience. If you've walked through the hard chapters of your life and need someone standing at your side saying "I got you"—that's Universal Worthy. That's this sutra. The ancient Chinese text meets the Mississippi Delta. The Bodhisattva's vow becomes a promise you can feel in your bones. By William AltigBook information
