The Sūtra Spoken by the Buddha on Mahākāśyapa’s Inquiry Concerning the True Dharma of the Great Treasure-Heap by 施護 (Dānapāla, 譯)
About the work
This 5-fascicle text by 施護 Dānapāla is the Northern-Sòng version of the Kāśyapa-parivarta, paralleling the earlier Lokakṣema T0350 and anonymous T0351. The 5-fascicle scope reflects an expanded recension of the underlying Indic text relative to the earlier Chinese versions.
Prefaces
No formal preface.
Abstract
The translation belongs to 施護 Dānapāla’s Northern-Sòng imperial-bureau activity (980 – 1017 CE).
