Questions on Abhidharma and sutra transmission addressed

Post by Leo Rivers »

Some of my questions about agama and sutta and abhidharma have been ast addressedanswered! This book just arrived: Ganguly, Swati. Perspectives on Evolution of Buddhism: An Analysis of the Chinese Buddhist Texts : Papers Based on Chinese, Pali and Sanskrit Sources of Early Buddhism. Eastern Book Linkers, 2002.

This showed up and turned out to talk about many questions I had. I paid half of what it goes for on AMAZON though. It's $50 there.
