Book
Book

Jikido Takasaki's seminal work on the Ratnagotravibhāga includes a critical introduction, a synopsis of the text, a translation from the original Sanskrit text in comparison with its Tibetan and Chinese versions, critical notes, appendixes, and indexes. The work is split into two parts. The first consists of a critical and detailed study on the structure of the text and the position of the Ratnagotravibhāga in Mahāyāna Buddhism, and the second consists of a translation of the Sanskrit text into English.
