Nagarjuna on Mindfulness of the Buddha by Bhikshu Dharmamitra PDF
About the book
Nāgārjuna on Mindfulness of the Buddha consists of three extended passages from Bhikshu Dharmamitra's original annotated translations from Sino-Buddhist Classical Chinese of works written by Ārya Nāgārjuna (circa 150 ce).
All three of these passages have been selected from Tripitaka Master Kumārajīva's early Fifth Century Sanskrit-to-Chinese translations of works by Nagarjuna, as follows:
1) The Easy Practice - Nāgārjuna's Treatise on the Ten Grounds, Chapter 9;
2) The Pratyutpanna Samadhi - Nāgārjuna's Treatise on the Ten Grounds, Chapters 20-25; and
3) Recollection of the Buddha - Nāgārjuna's Exegesis on the Mahāprajnāpāramitā Sūtra, Chapter 1, Part 36-1.
This translation is supplemented by inclusion of Chinese source text on verso pages in both traditional and simplified scripts.
About the author
Nagarjuna (c. 150 – c. 250 CE) was an Indian Mahāyāna Buddhist philosopher monk of the Madhyamaka school. He is widely considered one of the most important Buddhist philosophers. Kumārajīva (344–413 CE) was a Buddhist monk, scholar, missionary and translator from Kucha (present-day Aksu Prefecture, Xinjiang, China). Kumārajīva is seen as one of the greatest translators of Chinese Buddhism. This translation is by the American monk, Bhikshu Dharmamitra, a translator of numerous important classic Buddhist works.
