A story of Charles Luk is that when he translated the Shurangama Sutra, he left out the Shurangama Mantra thinking westerners are not ready to get it, and that they have reserves for Mantra cultivation. After the publishing, some time later he became sick, got cancer and died. He should have left the Mantra in the Sutra.

 

Peace and Blessings,

Lin

Hello Lin,

brother.

You seem to imply that if he left the Mantra in he would not have had cancer.

Do I read you right? If this is so, could you please explain this ignorant daoist what crushed him. Was it internal obligations or external paranormal forces? Or am I totally off track.
