The sūtra translated here is the first, the shorter of the two. Sūtras with equivalent titles are also found in other Buddhist canons, but their contents differ substantially from the one translated here. The Chinese Tripiṭaka, for instance, contains two sūtras so entitled (Taishō nos. 801 and 759), and in the Samyutta Nikāya of the Pāli canon, the collection of discourses grouped by themes, there are a number of different texts with the title Sutta on Impermanence (P. Aniccasutta).⁴ - [Previous: intro.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.anityatasutra*bo-d309~en-84000.intro.3) - [Next: intro.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.anityatasutra*bo-d309~en-84000.intro.5) - [Up: intro](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.anityatasutra*bo-d309~en-84000.intro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.anityatasutra*bo-d309~en-84000.intro.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.anityatasutra*bo-d309~en-84000.intro.4) · Pramāṇa
