6. The lengthy passages from the sūtra quoted in the Śikṣāsamuccaya are rather different in wording and phrasing from the Tibetan Kangyur editions of the sūtra, with numerous minor additions and deletions. Interestingly, David Snellgrove observes that the Tibetan and Chinese translations are closer to one another than to the extant Sanskrit, which would seem to suggest that the surviving Sanskrit passages in the Śikṣāsamuccaya differ from the earlier Sanskrit witnesses on which the Tibetan and Chinese translations were based. See Snellgrove 1958, 622.
