The Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra (Taishō 120[1]) is a Mahāyāna Buddhist scripture belonging to the Tathāgatagarbha class of sūtra,[2] which teach that the Buddha is eternal, that the non-Self and emptiness teachings only apply to the worldly sphere and not to Nirvāṇa, and that the Tathāgatagarbha is real and immanent within all beings and all phenomena. The sutra consists mostly of stanzas in verse.[3]

The Mahāyāna Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra should not be confused with the Pāli Canon's Angulimala Sutta, which is a completely different work included in the Majjhima Nikaya.
