Über dieses Hörbuch
The Diamond Sutra, also known as the ‘Diamond Cutter Sutra’ or ‘Vajracchedika Prajnaparamita Sutra,’ is a remarkable Buddhist text and is considered the world's oldest printed book. It holds immense historical, religious, and cultural significance. In the words of the British Library, it's “the earliest dated printed book.” Originally written in Sanskrit, The Diamond Sutra was discovered in 1900 within "The Cave of a Thousand Buddhas," a hidden library in Dunhuang, China.
