It is thus difficult to determine much about the history of this scripture in India and East Asia, or to evaluate its importance in Indian Buddhist traditions. The only witnesses we have of this sūtra today are the Tibetan translations that were included in the Tibetan Kangyurs. - [Previous: intro.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.dharma.dharmamudra*bo~en-84000.intro.3) - [Next: intro.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.dharma.dharmamudra*bo~en-84000.intro.5) - [Up: intro](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.dharma.dharmamudra*bo~en-84000.intro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.dharma.dharmamudra*bo~en-84000.intro.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.dharma.dharmamudra*bo~en-84000.intro.4) · Pramāṇa
