¹ The Sanskrit text has been edited, and the chapter on the seventh Bhūmi translated into English, by Johannes *Rahder*, Diss. Utrecht 1926 (J.-B. Istas, Leuven), Chapter VII also in Acta Or. IV, 214 ff. The text in Sanskrit and Tibetan with a French translation of Chapters I-VI (on the first six Bhūmis) had already previously been edited by *La Vallée Poussin* in Le Muséon 1907, 1910 and 1911, Chapt. VI also in *Bouddhisme, E'tudes et Matériaux, Théorie de douze causes* (1918), p. 115 ff. *La Vallée Poussin* says (ERE II, 744) that Daśabhūmīśvara is the title of a recension augmented by Prākrit verses. *Rahder* does not make this distinction, but merely remarks that some MSS. have Gāthās in the last chapter. In the colophon in *Rahder's* edition, the title reads: Daśabhūmīśvara Mahāyānasūtraratnarāja. Cf. also Rāj. Mitra, Nep. Buddh. Lit., p. 81 ff.; *Bendall*, Catalogue, p. 4 f. It is frequently quoted in the Śikṣā-Samuccaya.
