| A Study of the Daśabhūmika-sūtra: Its Relation to Previous Buddhist Traditions and the Development of Bodhisattva Practice | Chun, Jang-Kil. "A Study of the Daśabhūmika-sūtra: Its Relation to Previous Buddhist Traditions and the Development of Bodhisattva Practice." PhD diss., University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1993. | The value of a Buddhist sutra can be measured based on how it sees the nature of human existence and how it explains the experience of human beings. In most cases, the issue of human dignity has always been revived
and emphasized whenever Buddhism has encountered the challenge of nihilism and absolutism. The arising of the Mahāyāna also should be seen in this context, and particularly, how the image of the bodhisattva has been
put forth as a symbol of human dignity throughout the history of Mahāyāna Buddhism. The purpose of this paper is to examine: (1) how the Daśabhūmika-sūtra relates to Buddhist traditions in the past based on various religious experiences (particularly, the experience of the Buddha's power); and (2) how these experiences had formulated the ideas and practices of bodhisattvas in the system of ten stages (particularly, the mental transformation in the state of the effortlessness). For the first, three issues (experiencing the Buddha, problem of renunciation, and text worship) are discussed. (Chun, introduction, 1) | University of Wisconsin-Madison | 29 April 2022 20:47:22 | |

| "Revelation" in Mādhyamika Buddhism: Chapter Eleven of the Samādhirāja Sūtra | Tatz, Mark. "'Revelation' in Mādhyamika Buddhism: Chapter Eleven of the Samādhirāja Sūtra ('On Mastering the Sūtra'); Translated from the Tibetan with Commentary." MA thesis, University of Washington, 1972. https://u1lib.org/book/2064265/12d311. | The translation of one chapter of the Samadhiraja-sutra sets out on the path begun jointly by Regamey and Schayer in the 30's. We have the benefit not only of their pioneering labors, but of road-building tools unavailable to them. Since their time some excellent editorial work has been done by Nalinaksa Dutt on the Sanskrit text, and its philosophic groundwork has been thoroughly explored by western and Indian scholars. Furthermore its place in the Tibetan context has been discovered. Any failings, therefore, will not reflect on their magnificent example. The chapter presented here is the eleventh, "On Mastering the Sūtra" (mdo sde 'dzin pa'i le'u). It is of interest for its discussion of the Bodhisattva's function in the world. The full title of the sutra, as it appears in the Bka'-' gyur, is the Arya-sarvadharma-svabhāva-samatā-vipañcita-samādhirāja-mahāyāna-sūtra, "the noble sūtra of the greater vehicle, known as the King of Samādhis, which explains in detail the similarity of all dharmas in their own-being." It is also known as the Candrapradīpa after its principal interlocutor, the Bodhisattva Candraprabha. It is an expansive (vaipulya) sūtra, surviving in its entirety in Sanskrit and Tibetan, which elaborates in great detail the doctrines and practices of the early Mādhyamika. It is a source-work for the philosophy of the leaders of the Mahāyāna in India, from Candrakīrti to Atīśa. Its translation and that of the major commentary were done during the two "great spreads" of the Doctrine in Tibet, and in that country tooit has been a fundamental text.
