This sourcebook explores the most extensive tradition of Buddhist
dharani literature and provides access to the earliest available
materials for the first time: a unique palm-leaf bundle from the
12th-13th centuries and a paper manuscript of 1719 CE. The
Dharanisamgraha collections have been present in South Asia, and
especially in Nepal, for more than eight hundred years and served
to supply protection, merit and auspiciousness for those who
commissioned their compilation. For modern scholarship, these
diverse compendiums are valuable sources of incantations and
related texts, many of which survive in Sanskrit only in such
manuscripts.
