S. Lévi, VijñaptimAtratAsiddhi. Deux traités de Vasubandhu: ViMzatikA et

TriMzikA, Paris: Librarie Ancienne Honoré, 1925.

 

Both the manuscripts of the ViMzatikA and the TriMzikA by Vasubandhu

were given Lévi by Hem Raj Sarma, the Royal Preceptor of Nepal who owned

them, and to whom the book VijñaptimAtratAsiddhi is dedicated (cf.

Introduction, pp. X and XVI)

Sylvain Lévi published both versions of the Sanskrit text (that in twenty

verses and the trimsika) in the 1920ies. His manuscript(s) are of Nepalese

origin.

 

Besides the Chinese, there are also Tibetan versions of the vimsatika and

the trimsika in the Tanjur (as well as commentaries on the mula texts).
