大角 修 (Translator, Commentary) Editorial Review

The product under review is a Japanese text that serves as an introductory guide to two significant Buddhist sutras: the *Dainichikyō* (大日経) and the *Kongōchōkyō* (金剛頂経). It has been recognized by readers for its ability to simplify complex concepts of Esoteric Buddhism for beginners, allowing individuals with no prior knowledge to understand the key themes and narratives presented in these ancient texts. Many users have praised the book's modern translations and the way it presents these traditionally dense subjects in accessible language, making it particularly suitable for students or casual readers. Several reviewers noted that the text includes illustrative diagrams, aiding in the comprehension of intricate Buddhist concepts and practices. Commentaries have pointed out the importance of the sutras' core messages, such as the notion that the representation of the Buddha can vary and that teachings must be clear and genuine to be effective. However, some readers have expressed concerns regarding the book's depth. While it serves as an effective introduction, practitioners with a desire for a rigorous study may find the content somewhat superficial, mentioning that it touches upon subjects without delving into intricate details. The call for more comprehensive notes and context was noted by reviewers who felt that a detailed understanding of the nuances of the sutras requires additional research and reading of specialized texts. Overall, the product has found favor among novices seeking an approachable entry point into Esoteric Buddhism while also receiving critiques that underscore the importance of supplementary reading for deeper insights. **
