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.
