Universal Vehicle Discourse Literature (Mahayanasutralamkara) by Maitreyanatha/a Maitreyanatha/a, Lozang Jamspal, Robert Thurman, The Aibs Team (Hardcover, 2005)
This is a fully annotated, critical English translation of Maitreyanatha's Universal Vehicle Discourse Literature (Mahayanasutralamkara), as transmitted to the fourth-century Indian Buddhist scholar-adept firya Asanga, along with its commentary (bhasya) by Asanga's brother Vasubandhu. A wellspring of the magnificent deeds trend of the path, the Discourse Literature emphasizes the compassion side of Buddhist thought. This long-awaited work is the founding cornerstone of the AIBS' Tanjur Translation Initiative. Includes an introduction covering essential historical and philosophical topics, a bibliography, and detailed index.
