Kōichi Kitsudō and Zieme P. The Jin’gangjing zuan 金剛經纂 in Old Uighur with Parallels in Tangut and Chinese // Written Monuments of the Orient. 2(6), 2017. P. 43–87.
The Jin’gangjing zuan consists of passages abridged from the Diamond Sutra,
a miraculous story concerning a girl, and the Ten Feast Days and the Twelve Calendric
Days. It expounds the merits of chanting this scripture itself. So far, Chinese and Tangut
versions are edited. This paper provides the edition of the texts in Old Uighur attested in
manuscripts of St. Petersburg and Berlin. The comparative study of the texts reveals that
the Old Uighur version is parallel to the Tangut version.
On February 19, 2025, the IOM RAS will host the annual Iranological Conference in memory of O. F. Akimushkin. The program of the Conference is now available.
