Garbage Eating Scholars

Return to Cloud Monk's Buddhist Library, Shurangama Sutra

This is a term coined by Venerable Master Hsuan Hua. See:

“There are some, let us call them ”garbage-eatingscholars who claim that The Shurangama Sutra was not spoken by the Buddha. This is most certainly not the case, and I have made the following vow: If The Shurangama Sutra is false, I will fall into the uninterrupted hells forever.” (Source: The Sixth Patriarch's Dharma Jewel Platform Sutra with the commentary of Venerable Master Hsuan Hua)

Such garbage eating scholars love showing off with their overweening pride and limited knowledge (ignorance).
