The Buddha’s Spoken Sūtra on the Major and Minor Marks (recension b, system 1) anonymous Chinese composition; critical edition by 黃霞 (整理)

About the work

The b recension of the Fó shuō xiānghǎo jīng / system 1 — see KR6v0038 for the full literary description and the five-recension textual situation. This recension differs from recension a (KR6v0038) in lacking the shùnguān nìguān 順觀逆觀 (ascending/descending visualisation) instructions; otherwise the text is in the same system-1 group (no closing salvific-promise block).

Abstract

Edited from P. 3593 verso alone (head damaged, tail intact). See KR6v0038 for the full discussion.
