    Let \(\Sigma\) be a compact irreducible symmetric space embedded as a minimal Legendrian submanifold of the odd-dimensional unit sphere. Let \(C\Sigma\) be the special Lagrangian cone in \(\mathbb{C}^n\) over \(\Sigma\). The author shows that: (1) \(C\Sigma\) is always rigid, (2) if \(\Sigma = \text{SU}(3)\), \(\text{SU}(3)/\text{SO}(3)\), \(\text{SU}(6)/\text{Sp}(3)\) or \(E_6/F/4\), then \(C\Sigma\) is stable, (3) if \(\Sigma = \text{SU}(p)\), \(\text{SU}(p)/\text{SO}(p)\) or \(\text{SU}(2p)/\text{Sp}(p)\) with \(p\geq 4\), then \(C\Sigma\) is not stable.
