About the work

The first system-2 recension of the Fó shuō xiānghǎo jīng — see KR6v0038 for the full description. This recension belongs to the second textual system (which adds the closing bāshí yì jié shēngsǐ zhī zuì salvific-promise block and the Fó gào Ānán dialogue), but does not include the shùnguān nìguān 順觀逆觀 (ascending/descending visualisation) instructions present in the other system-2 recensions.
