Sinhalese & Thai chapter numbers[edit]

Hi Peter - Thanks for including the paranthetical note regarding the Burmese & PTS editions having two more chapter numbers than the Sinhalese & Thai editions. Just out of curiosity, if you get a chance, I'd be interested in knowing what those two chapters are. Thanks so much again for sharing your vast erudition.

As I hope the wording makes clear (if you think it doesn't, please make some suitable change), there is no difference of contents. At the beginning of the Nidana Vagga, these editions count the Nidana Samyutta as part of the Abhisamaya Samyutta. Similarly, they amalgamate the 1st 2 of the Salayatana Vagga: I'm not sure off the top of my head which title they use for the combination; I'll get back on that when I have a chance to look it up.

Hi Peter - as always, thanks! Excellent! Your wording is perfect (perhaps my question was misleading?). It also helps me infer where the chapter numbers go off, e.g., for future attempts at correlating sutta numbers. (Thus: Part I has the same chapter numbers; after chapter 12, Part II & III are off by one chapter number (Burmese|PTS = Sinhalese|Thai+1]; after chapter 35/34 (Burmese/Thai), the remaining chapters are off by two [Burmese|PTS = Sinhalese|Thai+2] -- though, of course, whether Part numbers and/or chapters and/or page numbers are used is another can of worms.) Thanks so much again, Larry Rosenfeld (talk) 20:31, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see on examination of volume 4 that the situation there is more complicated than I thought. The PTS & Burmese editions begin with Salayatana & Vedana Samyuttas. The Sinhalese edition starts with Vedana Samyutta combining these 2, but restarts numbering of subsections when it gets to the "real" Vedana Samyutta. The Thai edition starts with the subdivisions of the Salayatana Samyutta, but without any overall heading, & then has the Vedana Samyutta. So the PTS & Burmese editions have 56 samyuttas, the Sinhalese edition 54, & the Thai edition could be said to have 55, though strictly speaking it consists of 54 samyuttas & 4 pannasas.

Hi Peter - thanks for the additional information. It definitely helps. Also, unrelatedly, please allow me to use this thread to applaud you once again for all your efforts on Atthakatha and Subcommentaries, Theravada. Well done! Larry Rosenfeld (talk) 16:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When and Who[edit]

Who wrote this text and when? It seems rather fundamental information for a book. --TimSC (talk) 12:33, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
