Description

Smṛtijñānakīrti's commentary Bcom ldan 'das ma yum shes rab kyi pha rol tu phyin pa rgyas par bstan pa 'bum pa dang / 'bring du bstan pa nyi khri lnga stong pa dang / bsdus te bstan pa khri brgyad stong pa rnams dang mngon par rtogs pa'i rgyan gyi skabs brgyad dang sbyar ba'i 'grel pa (D3789)—"A Commentary Correlating the Eight Chapters of the Abhisamayālaṃkāra with the Blessed Mother, the Perfection of Wisdom, as Extensively Taught in One Hundred Thousand [Lines], as Taught in Medium Length in Twenty-Five Thousand [Lines], and as Taught Concisely in Eighteen Thousand [Lines]"—was translated into Tibetan by Rngog Lotsāwa Loden Sherab (1059–1109). As its title indicates, it correlates the eight abhisamayas (clear realizations) of the Abhisamayālaṃkāra across the three main Prajñāpāramitā recensions—the Śatasāhasrikā (100,000 lines), Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā (25,000 lines), and Aṣṭādaśasāhasrikā (18,000 lines)—and is classified by BDRC as a commentary on the Abhisamayālaṃkāra root verses (abhisamayālaṃkāranāmaprajñāpāramitopadeśaśāstrakārikā).

The Perfection of Wisdom in 25,000 Lines is the second longest of the six ‘mother’ Prajñāpāramitā texts (yum drug). It comprises three entire volumes of the Kangyur (vols. 26-28) and is divided into 76 chapters relating dialogues between the Buddha and senior disciples, notably Śāriputra, Subhūti and Ānanda.

With some exceptions, the text parallels the structure of the other Perfection of Wisdom sūtras, especially the Prajñāpāramitā in 10,000 Lines, yet it has traditionally been regarded as more influential, analyzing the bodhisattvas’ transcendent perfections in considerably greater detail, and showing how bodhisattvas should practise them without ever considering either their practice, or any other phenomena whatsoever, as truly existing.

An original Sanskrit version found in Gilgit exists, as well as four distinct Chinese translations. There is also an important recast Sanskrit manuscript, possibly of 5th century origin, which divides the text according to the eight sections of Asaṅga-Maitreya’s famous treatise, the Abhisamayālaṃkāra. The Tibetan text dates from the 9th century. There are several important commentaries on the text in the Tengyur, by Haribhadra, Smṛtijñānakīrti, Vimuktasena and others. (Source: 84000)
