This video explores the core teaching of the Diamond Sutra (Vajracchedikā Prajñāpāramitā), focusing on the section known as “No Attainment, No Teaching (無得無說分)”.
Through the original flow of the text, it carefully unfolds the Buddha’s radical message: that even enlightenment itself cannot be grasped as something attained, nor can the Dharma be fixed as something definitively taught.

In this chapter, the Buddha asks Subhūti whether the Tathāgata has attained the highest, supreme awakening, or whether there is any Dharma that has truly been taught. Subhūti replies that there is no fixed law that can be called supreme enlightenment, and no definitive teaching that the Buddha has proclaimed. What the Buddha teaches, he explains, cannot be attained, cannot be spoken, and cannot be classified as either “Dharma” or “non-Dharma.”

The video guides viewers to understand this paradoxical language not as nihilism, but as a direct pointer to the unconditioned Dharma (無爲法)—a reality beyond sensory perception and conceptual thought. It shows how all sages and enlightened beings are distinguished not by different truths, but by how deeply they embody this unconditioned reality.

The story and verse of Layman Pang (Pang Yun) further illuminate this teaching. Practice is not about accumulating knowledge or achievements, but about emptying the mind of attachment. Meditation is likened to an ancient civil service examination hall where Buddhas are “selected”: when the mind becomes empty, one naturally passes.

This video is intended both for beginners encountering the Diamond Sutra for the first time and for seasoned practitioners who wish to revisit its message as a mirror that dissolves subtle attachments.
It invites viewers to encounter the “teaching beyond teaching” and to reflect on why this insight lies at the heart of Mahāyāna Buddhism.
