Sutras
This page is not an all-inclusive presentation of Buddhist, Zen, Soto Zen sutras, chants, gathas. Just what's happened to have ended up on cuke and a few other places in the Shunryu Suzuki lineage but surely that's a lot missing that should be linked to from here.

A copy of the Chinese version of Diamond Sūtra, found among the Dunhuang manuscripts in the early 20th century by Aurel Stein, was dated back to May 11, 868.[1] It is, in the words of the British Library, "the earliest complete survival of a dated printed book." - from Wikipedia
Jack van Allen sent this years ago and wrote it was a 6th century heart sutra but I don't see those characters and the file name included "mahapari" which must be the Maha Parinibbana Sutra. - dc
