The Sutra of Dharmaketu
The Sutra of Dharmaketu (Skt. Dharmaketusutra; Tib. ཆོས་ཀྱི་རྒྱལ་མཚན་གྱི་མདོ།, Wyl. chos kyi rgyal mtshan gyi mdo) also known as Dharmaketu’s Question, is among the shortest sutras in the Kangyur. While the Buddha Shakyamuni is staying at Prince Jeta’s Grove, Anathapindada’s Park in Shravasti, a bodhisattva named Dharmaketu asks him what qualities a bodhisattva requires to achieve full awakening. In his response, the Buddha enumerates ten key qualities that must be cultivated.[1]
