v2.c35.s3.t4.37

Dr. Barua suggests that this work may be paralleled with the Pāli text *Paṭisambhidāmagga*.¹ There may be a verbal resemblance between the two texts, but the *Jñānaprasthāna* is written more on the lines of Buddhaghosa’s *Visuddhimagga* than on the *Paṭisambhidāmagga*. The title also suggests that the work is expected to contain topics leading to the highest knowledge, which, in other words, is purity or emancipation.
