Read Awakening to the Mahayana Faith (and the intro to the Lusthaus et al. version). It will give you a good overview of the ideas. It was the basis for basically all East Asian Mahayana after 6th century or so. https://www.amazon.com/Treatise-Awakening-Mahayana-Chinese-Thought/dp/0190297719/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?crid=2RTRUPJVGIOLS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.YMbqakIQuMxEKXvEOwt3_Oal9ptWi0Kc2dihkfCJFQEtbhNNTPse2KDmLTpeCvu-fmsHVnhK8YlZQZ5c4CYmVQGU6fhUTuS-cHFr1D6IPoD1nPz1nnagXYT1rNsprtVaD4iMAAnh1xEY1nqiz5kysK6eSuUgNd40ANZ0JjTFx8Y5mFnlVBvZUQ9uqMOUNOPySHT3LoHgLozYiVRWgUGhAA.6WPbc5ZIRgf6cWKVaQau8IKDGpf3wQyjFlpKnye2JWw&dib_tag=se&keywords=awakening+to+mahayana+faith&qid=1781727472&sprefix=awakening+to+mahana+faith%2Caps%2C657&sr=8-5
