Saddharmapundarika Sutram

---

Preface Soon after taking charge of the Asiatic Society as its General Secretary, the veteran anti quarian Prof. Dr. Kalidas Nag hunted up as usual with him the old neglected files of the Society and Found out among heaps of old papers a few valuable treasures one of which was a typescript of a fragmentary text of the Saddbarmapundarika prepared by the Russian scholar ND. Mironov (= M.) He realised its great Importance and asked me to take up the responsibility of seeing it through the press. The fragments were mostly obtained from Sir Aurel Steins collection of Central Asian mss. and were so few that their publication would not have served any useful purpose unless one had before him a copy of the Bibliotheca Buddhica edition of the text of Kern and Nanjio (1904), but as this publication 21d been long out of print, the Society decided to publish the whole text (without the variant readings of the B.B. edition) along with M.s readings as the fragments. In the present text, the readings have been given in the corresponding places as footnotes marked by M. without any emendation. rnrnIn 1934 a romanised and revised edition of this text was published by the two dictinguished Sanskritists of Japan, Wogihara and Tsuchida. This edition was a great improvement upon the original and hence the present text has been based mainly on these two editions of the t, the differences being indicated in the footnotes by B. for the Bibliotheca Buddica text and by J. for the Japanese. rnrnWhen this book was half printed, a microfilm copy of the Ms. of this text, discovered at Gilgit. came into my hands but as the Society was not prepared to delay its publication any longer, its readings could not be incorporated in the present edition, It is hoped that a supplement giving the new readings will be published in the near future. rn
