Classical WorksAbout this item

The very title Ratnarāśi means "a heap or hoard of treasure or gems."[1] For the authors of the sutra, the reference is clearly to the life of strict observance of discipline, a life structured by Buddhist ascetic practice: this is the gem, and the text is a collection of advice on how to properly conduct oneself in order to realize for oneself and in oneself this jewelled goal. The monastic, ascetic, renunciant life is a treasure because it is the key to liberation from the suffering of the round of samsāra, not only for the ascetic but for those who materially support him. (Silk, "The Origins and Early History of the Mahāratnakūṭa Tradition of Mahāyāna Buddhism," 29)
