Biographical Information
In 1291, Zongbao (宗寶, Wade-Giles: Tsung-pao) produced the edition [of the Platform Sūtra] that became part of the Ming Dynasty Chinese Buddhist canon. This canonical version, apparently based on the Qisong edition, is about a third longer than the Mogao Caves version, and structured differently.
In 1934, D. T. Suzuki published an edition [of the Platform Sūtra] based on the Mogao Cave text, but incorporating corrections from the Tsungpao (Zongbao) edition.
