The author, focusing on the text called Sagathakam, has made an attempt to clarify the idiom of 4th Century India by amplifying some pivotal concepts. The Sagathakam, probably written in verse form to facilitate memorization and comprehension, are at the heart of Mahayana Buddhism and deserve a second look.

Sho Fu revisits these concepts with 21st Century sensibilities and reveals the brightness of something that is seemingly opaque. If more fully comprehended, these verses help resolve all of the materialistic dead-ends we have been led to in our own time.
