Winner 2022 Khyentse Foundation prize for Outstanding Translation. The Vimalakīrtinirdeśa is one of Mahayana Buddhism’s great contributions to world literature. A complete Sanskrit text was long thought lost and earlier English translations were made from Chinese or Tibetan versions. The recovery of a Sanskrit manuscript from the Potala Palace in Lhasa by a team of scholars from Taisho University in Japan allowed Paul Harrison and the late Luis Gómez to complete a fresh English translation from a carefully assembled Sanskrit text. The result is an authoritative translation, elegantly readable, and suitable for both scholars and general readers alike. The book includes an introduction to the translation by Paul Harrison, a glossary and index of key terms, along with extensive endnotes. Read more
