Note on the transliteration:

The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).

Important:

We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

Introduction:

See also Mūlasarvāstivādavinayasaṃgraha, a commentary on the Bhikṣuprātimokṣa by Viśeṣamitra, 尊者勝友 translated by Yijing 義淨. The work is also extant in Tibetan (’dul ba bsdus pa, D Tj ’dul ba nu 92b-279a), from where we have the name of the author.

The English translation is based on Prebish (1975), but with changes made during the reading in the Oslo University seminar, as built on commentaries and our own discussion.

Manuscript materials:

The Sanskrit is based on Banerji’s edition of the text. However, when the reference contains the siglum FE, we have made a new edition on the basis of the Gilgit version, as contained in the Facsimile edition of Raghu Vira and Lokesh Candra, vol. I, Delhi 1959.

The Tibetan version is built on the Derge xylograph.
