Addendum

For my translations, I have used the standard Sanskrit texts of the Heart and Diamond Sutras, but for the Platform, I have used the Chinese copy found at Dunhuang 敦煌 in 1935. It was given a tentative date of 780, the same date as another Dunhuang copy brought back to the British Museum in 1908. Since the ordering of material in these two copies differs from the later Zongbao 宗寶 edition of 1291 enshrined in the Chinese Buddhist canon on which most other translations are based, I’ve added a cross-referencing list. Dunhuang sections 38, 50, 55, 56, and 57 are missing in the Zongbao edition. For material in the Zongbao edition missing in the Dunhuang copies, I have indicated that with an x. The missing material can all be found in my earlier translation of the Platform Sutra published by Counterpoint in 2006.
