Preface.
Nearly thirty years have passed since I made a complete
copy of the text of the Saddharmapundarika-sutra, while I 
was studying Sanskrit under the instruction of Professor Max
Muller at Oxford. The manuscript then used was in the posses-

sion of the Royal Asiatic Society in London. It was a modern
MS., consisting of 174 leaves, each leaf being 17 inches by 3
inches, six lines in a page, as described in Cowell and Egge-
ling’s Catalogue, p. 7. At that time my friend Mr. Kenjiu Ka-
sawara was with me, who was in fact always a partaker of my
work. Accordingly as soon as my copy was completed, we went
to Cambridge, where we collated it with two MSS. of the Uni-
versity Library of that place. After that I alone went to London,
where I did the same with a rather old palm-leaf MS. of the
British Museum. It was in July 1882, when Kasawara’s illness
became evident, and he determined to start from England for
Japan. Next year I met Mr. Watters in London, who was then
the British Consul at Formosa. He possessed a Nepalese MS. of
the same Sutra, and lent it me for collation. Beside these five
MSS., I also saw the lithographic text of the 4th chapter, pub-
lished by Ph. Ed. Foucaux, and a wood-cut one of the 24th
chapter in a collection of several texts, edited in China or Tibet.
The latter book was given to Mr. Wylie by a gentleman in Pe-
king. A specimen would be seen in the last page of the Anecdota
@ii
Oxoniensia, Aryan Series, Vol. 1, Part 1{1 Another copy of it is to be found in the Library of the St. Petersburg 
University cf. Minajev Introduction to his “SADDHARMA” vol. I, 2.}. Though I knew well
that there were two MSS. in Paris, and one each in the Library
of the College of Fort William, and that of the Asiatic Society
of Bengal, yet I was unable to see them. A few years ago, Rev.
Ekai Kawaguchi brought with him MSS. of 43 different texts
from Nepal, one of which was that of this Sutra. I at once bor-
rowed it from him and collated my old copy with it. But after all,
all the MSS., I ever used, belonged to the same family of texts,
except the Chinese or Tibetan text of the 24th chapter above
mentioned. From such sources I have carefully copied the whole
text for publication, adding various readings in foot-notes, and
sent it to Professor Kern. It is he, who has made the final judg-
ment for the most part of many obscure passages, adding differ-
ent readings of some fragments of MSS. from Kashgar.
Now I shall add a few words about the Chinese translations
and commentaries of this Sutra. First of all this Sutra is said to
have been rendered into Chinese six times, but three of these
translations were already lost in A. D. 730, when a Catalogue was
compiled by Ch’-shang (Chi-sho in Jap., No 1485 of my Catalogue
of the Chinese Tripitaka). The dates of these six versions are about
A. D. 255, 270, 286, 335, 400 and 601 respectively. Those of
A. D. 255, 270 and 335 are the lost ones. The remaining there
are Nos. 138, 134 and 139 of my Catalogue, being the versions
of Dharmaraksa, Kumarajiva, and Jnanagupta and Dhar-
magupta respectively. The details of these versions will be seen
in my Catalogue, col. 44-46. No. 139 is the latest Chinese trans-
lation and agrees for the most part with the Sanskrit text. Beside
these, two incomplete versions are mentioned in Ch’-shang’s Ca-
talogue, the dates being about A. D. 223 and 335, but they were
also lost already in 730.
As to the commentaries of this Sutra, there are two versions
of a similar text, entitled the Saddharmapundarika-sutra-castra,
@iii
compiled by the Bodhisattva Vasubandhu. In the Chinese title,
the word of upadeca is given in transliteration instead of c’astra.
One of them was translated by Bodhiruci (No. 1232), and the
other by Ratnamati (No. 1233), the dates being the same as
A. D. 508, or the latter being somewhat later. In China and Japan,
Kumarajiva’s version is most popular, and it is almost worshipped
by the followers of Tendai in both countries, and Nichiren in
the latter. They are used to repeat the seven characters Na-mu-
myo-ho-ren-ge-kyo, i. e. Namah Saddharmapundarikaya sutraya,
as their formula. So there are several works on the version,
among which the following are found in the sacred canon: Nos.
1542, 1543, 1547 (the author Heoui-sz’ (E-shi in Japanese)
died A. D. 577), 1510, 1534, 1536, 1538, 1540, 1555, 1557 (the
author Ch’-i (Chi-gai) d. 597) 1511, 1535, 1537, 1539, 1541,
1578 (the author Tsan-zhan (Tan-nen) d. 782), 1518, 1556,
1558 (the author Ch’-li (Chi-rai) about 1010) of my Catalogue.
According to a Catalogue of the Books of several Sects (Sho-shiu-
sho-sho-roku) compiled in Japan (A. D. 1790), there are 2 or 4
works of the Kegon sect, 60 of the Tendai, 15 of the Sanron, 38
of the Hosso, and 14 of the Shingon. Some of these works are
of course not only commentaries of older commentaries of the folder commentaries, but also
treatises and extracts. Among the 60 works of the Tendai sect,
Hokke-gi-sho (Commentary of the Saddharmapundarika) is
mentioned. The name of the author is Umayado, better known
by his posthumous name Shi-toku-tai-shi, the Prince Impe-
rial of his aunt, the 36-th reigning Empress Sui-ko (A. D.
593-628). He wrote a commentary each on three Sutras,
namely, Crimaladevisimhanada (No. 59), Vimalakirttinirdeca
(No. 146) and Saddharmapundarika (No. 134), from A. D. 609
till 615. He composed his works in pure Chinese, so that even a
Chinese priest named Ming-khung (Myo-ku) of the Tang (To)
dynasty made a commentary on his first work. The Prince died
in his 49th year (A. D. 622), and he was the first promulgator
of Buddhism and Confucianism in Japan.
@iv
So far for the Chinese translations and commentaries. Now
in conclusion, I wish to express my grateful feelings for the poss-
essors of the MSS. already alluded to, who have so freely allowed
me that I could have used them for some time, and equally for
my partaker Professor Kern, through whose perseverance only
this text has been published for the first time. Moreover I do not
wish to omit to thank for the editor, whose agreement has very
much encouraged me to forward my own copy for the press.

Additional note.
To supplement the foregoing Preface I have to add an account
of the use of material at my disposal, which, owing to the extreme
liberality of the lamented Mr. N. Th. Petrovskij, I have been
in the occasion to examine. That material consisted of remnants
of a text of the Saddharmapundarika discovered in Kashgar,
namely an incomplete manuscript containing about 2/5 of the
whole text, and further various fragments from different MSS. of
the same work. Unfortunately these fragments added but very
little to the missing parts of the incomplete great manuscript,
yet they were valuable in so far as they appeared to represent
an identical text barring some insignificant differences, partly
clerical errors.
I know from Prof. Luders in Berlin and Prof. Leumann in
Strasburg that a certain number of other fragments of the Sad-
dharmapundarika, found in Kashgar, are in other hands, espe-
cially of Prof. Hoernle in Oxford. One specimen shown to me
appeared to be a leaf wanting in one of the fragments in the col-
lection of Petrovskij; other specimens, however, showed other
readings, so that it is quite possible that in Kashgar there was
more than one version. Whatever may be brought to light by
further investigations, the matter at my disposal I can not consider
but to represent one class of MSS., the readings of which I de-
note by O.
@vi
The Kashgar text known to me is highly remarkable. It
stands wholly apart from the texts in the Nepalese MSS. and so
far as a superficial knowledge of some parts of the Chinese ver-
sions permits me to judge, likewise from the latter. It is much
more prolix, and in the metrical parts the verses often follow in
a different order, but the most striking difference is the language
of the prose parts of the text. In that language, in general much
resembling that of the Mahavastu, but without the corruptness
of the latter, the number of Prakrtisms and wrongly sanskritized
expressions, is incomparably greater than in the Nepalese MSS.
In order to give an idea of that peculiarity I here subjoin a list of
terms in the first column with the corresponding of the Nepalese
texts in the second.

As to the orthography of the Kashgar text it will suffice
to remark that in the correct use of b and v, as well as of the
three sibilants, it excels the Nepalese MSS. In general the distinc-
tion of those sounds is the same as in the Bombay editions
of Sanskrit texts. A notable exception is Baranasi for Varanasi,
like in Pali. Worth mentioning is the regular use of the Jihva-
muliya in duhkha and similar cases. Barring in the instance of
Baranasi we have not scrupled to follow the spelling of the
Kashgar text in respect to the aforenamed sounds, without
paying regard to the other MSS. 
The characteristics, such as described, warrant, in my opi-
nion, the conclusion that, in formal respect, the Kashgar version
is more original than the Nepalese texts, and that the more
regular Sanskrit of the latter is the outcome of subsequent innov-
ations due to continued revision. It is a quite different question
whether the Kashgar version is materially a more faithful copy
of the original composition of the Saddharmapundarika than the
other texts we know of. An attempt at solving this question will
only be possible after a comparison of the existing Chinese trans-
@x
lations with the texts of the Nepalese MSS. and with the Kash-
gar text or maybe texts, a complete edition of which is much
to be desired.
Whatever may be the results of further investigations, it
can not be doubted that the Kashgar writings precede some cent-
uries the date of the oldest MSS. from Nepal, though we are
unable to define the time of those writings with something like
precision. Thus much may be observed that the kind of Brahmi
of our Kashgar text exactly resembles the writing of the two
pages containing a fragment of the Sanskrit Dharmapada with the
translation into the language I B., which have been published by
Mr. N. D. Mironov in Bulletin de l’ Acade’mie Imperiale des
Sciences de St. Petersbourg, VI serie, pp. 547, ff., in his paper
on “Fragments de manuscrits, rapportes par M. M. Berezuvskij
de Kuca{1 The Russian title is: M. M.}”. It is a matter of course that the fragments even if
we knew their date, do not afford a clue to determining the time
when the text embodied in them was framed.
On account of the profound difference between the Kashgar
version and the other text, chiefly in consequence of its greater
prolixity, its various readings have been adduced only at passages
where the wording of the phrase was not too different. As to the
peculiar forms of words, several of them recurring more than
once, the reader is referred to the list given above.
In the metrical parts of the work the reader will repeatedly
have occassion to light on inconsistencies which the editors felt
obliged to leave untouched. One of those consists in the irregular
use of the Visarga. It is sufficiently clear that in the dialect
underlying the Gathas there is no place for the Visarga. This is
proved by the fact that instead of the Sanskrit pluralending ā:,
pali a, we here and there find a. Now such a shortening can not
be explained if the original Prakrtic idiom had not lost Visarga,
@xi
which is wanting already in Pali, and the dialect in question
shows the traces of a somewhat later language, for instead
of Pali o (Skr. ah) in the Nominative case of masculine words a
very common ending is a or u; likewise for Pali am, Skr. am; for
Skr. and Pali e, in the Locative case singular, and in the Nomin-
ative plural masculine of Pronouns, we often find i; a form ahu
for aham points in the same direction. The dialect is not only
younger than Pali, but also different in other respects, though it
has many traits in common. Whether the original of the prose in
the Kashgar text was identical to the idiom of the Gathas, both
being overlaid with a Sanskrit varnish, much more thoroughly in
prose, than in the Gathas, can no more be ascertained. For
obvious reasons the verses could not be sanskritized to such an
extent as the prose. When reading the verses, especially those
in Tristubh and Jagati, no one will fail to observe that the
sanskritized words spoil the metre, since prosodically short 
vowels remain so throughout before consonant-combinations like
jñ, st, sth, etc. It can not be admitted for a moment that in any 
language, in verses regulated by quantity, short syllables are
unaffected by such combinations. We have, of course, no right to
change texts, which, though formally not original, have been 
fixed by authoritative revisers of a sacred book, but we may
apply the required correction mentally. It is perhaps not super-
fluous to add that, with few exceptions, the versification is good,
and that the Tristubh and Jagati stanzas are of a more ancient
type than is found in mediaeval Sanskrit works. Regularly there
is a secondary pause after the fourth or fifth foot, just as in
Vaidic prosody; before the pause a short syllable has the value
of a long one, in which case we find in the MSS. the quantity
often marked by writing e. g. co or ca for ca, but not always.
This rule is unknown to Pingala{1 See A. Weber, Indische Studien. VIII, p. 371,ff.}, a sufficient proof, in my opi-
nion, that the manual under his name is not old.
@xii
The Saddharmapundarika is a composition bearing the
traces of having been compiled from more than one source. This
circumstance, combined with the work of revisers qualified to
modify the text agreeably to the particular tenets, or maybe
crotchets of their school or sect prevents us to go back to what
may be called the very first text of the book. The editors of the
present book could do no more but try to give a readable, not
decidedly faultive text, leaving it to every reader to consult the
copious various readings and choose for himself what he would
prefer.
Before finishing this note, it behoves me to pay my hearty
thanks to Professor S. d’Oldenburg, for his unwearied efforts
to further in every respect my work and for the many marks of
kindness I have received from him in the course of years.

The fragments, though belonging to different MSS.,
show all of them the same peculiarities and evidently
belong to the same family of texts.
P.: The lithographic text in Nagari published by Ph. Ed.
Foucaux in his work Parabole de l’ Enfant egarc
(Paris, 1854).
A more detailed account will be given in the Preface after
