The Mahayana Sutras are Forgeries: The Counterfeit of the True Dharma

"Mahayanists everywhere should read this book. It reveals that Mahayanism is not based on the teachings of the historical Buddha. If you care about the truth, read this book."

In this book, Jay N. Forrest challenges the common belief that Mahayanism is Buddhism. But Jay will demonstrate that this is not true. Mahayanism has different scripture, a different Buddha, a different ideal, and a different salvation. The facts will demonstrate that the Mahayana is not based on the teachings of the historical Buddha but upon forgeries created by monks five hundred years after the Buddha's death.

This book is written for those who are actually interested in the truth. It is for those who actually want to know the authentic teachings of the historical Buddha.ContentsPreface
