| Sumario: | "This critical edition introduces the Tibetan texts and their English translations of two important chapters in the Tibetan Mūlasarvāstivādavinaya: the Chapter on Mahāprajāpatī Gautamī (*Mahāprajāpatīgautamīvastu) and the Manual for Buddhist Nuns' Ordination (*Bhikṣuṇyupasaṃpadājñapti). Based on the presented materials, the author discusses ways in which the nuns' ordination in the Tibetan tradition--from which full ordination for women has been absent for centuries--may be legitimately reinstated. This is a concern Carola Roloff has been supporting for more than two decades. Her edition and exegesis of the Tibetan texts and their Sanskrit parallels constitute a solid foundation for discussing why the Mūlasarvāstivāda bhikṣuṇī lineage should be re-established and how concrete steps in that direction may look like."-- |
