Note 110 — INDEX.

There are three Chinese translations of this sûtra: the first, by Dharmarakṣa during the first two decades of the fifth century A.D.; the second, by Paramârtha of the Liang dynasty, who came to China A.D. 546 and died A.D. 569; and the third, by I-tsing of the Tang dynasty who came back from his Indian pilgrimage in the year 695 and translated this sûtra A.D. 703. The last is the only complete Chinese translation of the Suvarnâ Prabhâ. A part of the original Sanskrit text recovered in Nepal was published by the Buddhist Text Society of India in 1898.
