The original title of Wongakgyeong (The Perfect Enlightenment Sutra) means “the prime scripture among all the Buddha sutras as it explains the big, upright, and enormous enlightenment.” The sutra provides the readers with basic direction of Buddhist training through the conversation of Buddha and Bodhisattva. This version with Korean translation was published in 1465 (the 11th year of King Sejo's reign).
