In his dream\, Bodhisattva Ruchiraketu saw a golden drum emanating golden light which filled the ten directions. The light symbolised the Dharma taught by Buddha Shakyamuni and its ability to lead sentient beings to enlightenment.  \nThe Golden Light Sutra is widespread within all Mahayana schools of Buddhism due to its potency to aid sentient beings\, generate merit\, purify karma and because it contains all the major elements of the Buddhist path towards enlightenment. \n
