Description
The Śatasāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā, or Perfection of Wisdom in One Hundred Thousand Lines, is the largest text within the Prajñāpāramitā corpus of Mahāyāna Buddhist literature. One of the wooden cover slats is illustrated with what appear to be three floral motifs, though they are difficult to discern due to fading. The final slat features an image of a female deity. Floral designs within the manuscript are used to mark chapter endings. This volume contains the third section (tṛtīya khaṇḍa). The first section (prathama khaṇḍa) is preserved in cff 382-A, the second section (dvitīya khaṇḍa) in cff 382-B, and the fourth section (caturtha khaṇḍa) in cff 382-D.
