“Imperially Selected Outline of the Zongjing” excerpts the essential teachings from the Zongjing lu system, preserving Yanshou’s comprehensive synthesis of Consciousness-Only, Tiantai, Huayan, and the doctrines of various schools. It is both a compendium of Buddhist doctrine and a reflection of the Qing dynasty’s official orientation toward the editing and printing of Buddhist scriptures. This item is a Wuying Hall printed edition from the twelfth year of the Yongzheng reign of the Qing dynasty, suitable for comparative reading alongside the complete Zongjing lu.
