Anthony,
All teachings are continually evolving. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha-nature <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddha-nature> I find the Flower Sutra to be magnificent. Anyway, what matter to me is that the Flower Sutra edifies and inspires me - and that's all that matters to me. --ED --- In [email protected], Anthony Wu <wuasg@...> wrote: > > ED, > > If the Flower Sermon appeared in the 14th century, while the Buddha lived in the 6th Century BC, what happened in the 2,000 year gap? Did the physical Buddha returned from the grave to transmit the dharma? Or the 'dharmakaya' of the Buddha showed up to spread the untold teaching? > > Anthony
