Description
This text describes Śākyamuni telling his disciples about the power of the mantra Suvarṇa-prabhāsa, which even householders and women of family background who seek knowledge of the Buddhas and wish to worship Śākyamuni should hear and preach. The manuscript contains 20 chapters, each referred to as a parivartta. The text was translated into Chinese by Dharmamatatsin of the Northern Liang dynasty (502–565 CE) (Mitra, 1882, p. 241). The chapters begin with Suvarṇapravāsottama-sūtrendrarāja-nidānaparivartta (f.1b–4a) and continue up to Sarvatathāgatastava-parivartta (f.132a–134a).
