Buddhist scriptures (Sutras) are recorded teachings of the Buddha whose main aim is to enable all sentient beings to listen, understand, practise and benefit from the wonderful teachings of the Buddha. As Buddhists, we take refuge in the Triple Gems, we not only take faith and worship the Buddha as an icon but we can and we should look deeper into the teachings of the Buddha, to comprehend and apply the Dharma into our daily lives, to build confidence in the Buddha's teachings (Dharma).
Reciting/ Chanting the Sutra is one of the ways which we as Buddhists express our faith and also as a mean to recollect the teachings of the Buddha through chanting. Through such an action, we plant Bodhi seeds which will eventually blossom into a flower of Great wisdom and build immense merits.
In my very own personal effort and belief that the Dharma should be made known, I have dedicated myself to printing a small range of Buddhist Sutra in Chinese for free distribution as long as it I have the financial ability to do so.
Also considering the modern lifestyle, I have printed these Sutra Books into a handy pocket version (15cm X 11cm) which will enable modern working people to carry it in their bags to work or travelling, place it on your office table or offer it on your personal shrine. I have also chose to print these sutra books in the highest quality of paper, golden word prints, Japanese purple fabric, base hard cover and encased it with professional protection book wrapper as the highest mark of respect for the Dharma.
As I believe the Dharma should be kept free from being commercialised, I have made these high quality sutra books for FREE DISTRIBUTION and will be mailed to your doorstep. No Postage Fees will be collected, mailing of any quantity of sutra books to anyone to any part of the world, Absolutely Free Of Charge.

Had sent you email.
I'm afraid not"....printing a small range of Buddhist Sutra in Chinese"
Nice one, ordered some for my ageing parents.
It is good that you order some of these sutras for your aging parents. However, please do not be misunderstood nor create the impression that sutras are meant for the old aged.
The teachings of the Buddha is for all people of all ages and certainly Buddhism is not a religion for the old aged.
Metta,
Goh
thank you
AEN to herzog: I hope you realise that your intention to stop such meritorious deed is a great unwholesome karma.

Just my opinion, but if your mom can understand spoken Chinese, then maybe you can invite the DVD that play out people reading this sutras, i think the free-distribution area in Buddhist Lodge at Kim Yam Road has alot of free DVDs/CDs for this purpose. For older generation people, may be better to keep it simple, play Buddha names / Bodhisattva names with nice melody may make them feel happy and sing along and thus creating great affinity with the dharma and planting much virtue in the process.
If you want to get the sutra, can put it on the altar table too!
In my case, I am printing in Chinese, so I highy recommend people who comprehend Chinese to get this sutras.
The main aim of sutras is to let us understand and comprehend the teachings of the Buddha, sutras are not like magical words nor an idol. Again, I advise those whom are getting these sutras to make a small asipration to understand the Dharma through reading or reciting it. But i do recongise that people of great faith even without having comprehend the teachings arise great merits just by chancing upon the sutra, so if one can't really understand the sutras, it is also okay for one to place it on the altar, honour it as a symbol of faith and honour for the Dharma.
With regards to the comments on beng enviromental friendly, I hope you understand that by being eco-friendly does not mean we do not use any paper, it mean to use paper wisely and not to discard them unwisely. This is perfectly the reason why I am printing the sutra books in top quality paper and cover, this is to let people treasure the sutra and value it so that people do not discard it unwisely.
Metta,
Goh
Has anyone received the sutras?
I have received one Sutra today. It is from Taiwan!
The text 100% traditional chinese text + some Japanese words.
Understand that the words should be read from Right to Left and Top to Bottom
