 (DIR) Sutras (Scriptures)
       Mahayana Buddhists do not have a closed or universal "canon" of 
       scriptures. Every tradition, denomination, and school privileges a 
       particular collection of sutras in their practice. Here you can find 
       some of the sutras that are privileged by the Order of Hsu Yun and 
       Yin Feng Shakya's local sangha (community or congregation).
       
 (DIR) Liturgical Texts
       The practices of Buddhadharma include meditation, sutras, chanting,
       mantra, dietary regulation, and many other disciplines. Historic
       liturgies help give shape and order to the disciples' practices.
