| 摘要 | This volume contains a complete translation of the fourth chapter of this important late Vajrayāna Buddhist tantra together with its indispensible Indic commentary. The translation is augmented by a very brief survey of the chapter's contents, an edition of the Mongolian translation of this chapter of the tantra (without the commentary), and two appendices listing Sanskrit names and terms appearing in the Mongolian edition. The translation is necessarily provisional because it is based upon the existing printed editions of the Sanskrit texts (which do not adequately utilize available manuscripts) and because the study of the technical terminology of Vajrayāna Buddhism is still in its infancy. That said, the translation provides a good representation of the diverse range of ritual, yogic, and meditative practices found in this tradition of Buddhist mysticism. This volume is recommended for specialists in Vajrayāna Buddhism. |
