On rakṣā literature, a term introduced by Peter Skilling to describe this kind of apotropaic and performative literature, see Skilling 1992 and, more recently, the brief but clear overview in Strauch 2014, 64–67. See also Skilling 1997, 15, 63–88 (on the Mahāsūtras as rakṣā literature) and 78–84 (on the general problem of the classification of the Mahāsūtras).
