Description

This volume offers a complete translation of fascicles 1-13, or sections I-VII of the Mahāvaipulya Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra, the Great Extensive Collection Sūtra. This collection of closely-related sūtras is probably one of the earliest compilations of Mahāyāna sūtras and offers insightful thoughts on the nature of Buddha-nature, bodhisattva conduct, non-duality, silence, dhāraṇīs, māras, and more. It was carefully translated by Alexander James O'Neill (sections I-V), Āloka Dharmacakṣus (section VI), and Charles D. Patton (section VII).

This volume contains translations of the following sections of Taishō no. 397:

I. Jewelled Ornamentation (fascicle 1a)
II. Dhāraṇīśvārarāja Bodhisattva (fascicles 1b-4)
III. Ratnadārikā (fascicles 6-7)
IV. Animiṣa Bodhisattva (fascicle 7)
V. Sāgaramati Bodhisattva (fascicles 8-11)
VI. Avācya Bodhisattva (fascicle 12)
VII. Anabhilāpya Bodhisattva (fascicle 13)
