| bio | Mañjuśrīkīrti wrote a commentary on the Samādhirājasūtra entitled Kīrtimālā.
According to Christoph Cüppers, "This text has been preserved only in its Tibetan translation. The edition is based on the Tanjur block prints of Derge, Cone, Narthang and Peking, among which, as a rule, the readings of Cone agree with those of Derge and the readings of Narthang with those of Peking. . . . "In the Tanjur four other texts besides the commentary to the [Samādhirājasūtra] SR are ascribed to one 'Jam-dpal-grags-pa (Mañjuśrīkīrti), of which three are commentaries to Tantric works and one is a text on grammar (TTP nos.: 3314, 3316, 3357 and 5778). [Whether the author of these works is identical with the author of the Kīrtimālā is unclear.] "Mañjuśrīkīrti's philosophical standpoint in the Kīrtimālā is . . . not a purely śūnyavāda one; rather, one is also confronted in the explications with ideas of the Yogacāra school." (Cüppers, introductory remarks to appendix A of The IXth Chapter of the Samādhirājasūtra, 110) |
