Description
We have two versions of the Bodhicaryāvatāra: the standard Sanskrit version with ten chapters (abbr. as BCA), and the Tibetan version from Tun-huang with nine chapters (abbr. as BCT). According to recent studies we can assume that the BCT had been written earlier than BCA.[1] Since Chapter 2 of the BCT is divided into two chapters in the BCA (Chapters 2 and 3), Chapter 8 of the BCT, the chapter on Prajñā, which I shall take up here, corresponds to Chapter 9 of the BCA. The difference between two versions is greatest in this chapter: the BCT has only 90.5 kārikās whereas the BCA has 168. As a whole the BCA must have been an extended version of the BCT, but there are also 22.5 kārikās which exist only in the BCT.[2] Here I discuss some of these kārikās, BCT 8.40-44ab and 45-52, specifically the latter half.
