What are the Sutras of the Buddha?

Answer from the V.M. Samael Aun Weor.

The Buddha taught that the Ego is constituted by a sum of psychological aggregates (I-devils). Such aggregates are perishable; the only element within us that assumes the transcendental aspects of eternity is the intimate Buddha; unfortunately, most people do not have Him incarnated.

Answer from the magazine "The The wisdom of the Being.".

The word *Sutra* comes from Sanskrit and means "thread" or "cord"; the Sutras of the Buddha can be understood as the guiding threads of divine wisdom. Sutras are aphorisms—that is, brief, concise phrases that express a truth of the Being. Studying them stimulates deep self-reflection and motivates us to explore our own psychology, thereby fostering self-knowledge through meditation.
