Where in the world does everyone find the English versions of sutras like the heart, lotus, etc. I would love to read more on these but can never find the full copies in English. Are there any translators like Ven. Bodhi working on the Mahayana side?
Links please

Re: English Mahayana Sutras
There is this thing called Google search - try using 'mahayana sutras online'
May all seek, find & follow the Path of Buddhas.
Re: English Mahayana Sutras
I'm confused. Christopherxx, are you saying that you can't find an English translation of the Heart Sutra?

All over literally, but here is a decent place to start.
Meditate upon Bodhicitta when afflicted by disease
Meditate upon Bodhicitta when sad
Meditate upon Bodhicitta when suffering occurs
Meditate upon Bodhicitta when you are scared

Re: English Mahayana Sutras
Thanks guys I appreciate it. I'm not sure why but when I was looking it up I just wasn't getting the same results (hopefully that answers wills question).
Definitely appreciate the time and resources
