Susan Whitfield on the Diamond Sutra by The British Library published on 2015-03-18T15:04:45Z Susan Whitfield of the Dunhuang Project (http://idp.bl.uk/) talks about the Diamond Sutra of 868, discovered in a cave in Dunhuang, China, is a priceless illustrated record of early Buddhist teaching. It is the oldest dated printed book in the world: for early Buddhists, every copy produced of a sacred text meant more good karma.
