Subject: [Pali] request: on the Digha
Hello all,
As i mentioned a few days ago, our plan for a centralized web-based
resource is going ahead. Our plan is to first do a pilot version
using only the Digha. This is simple enough to be easily doable, but
complex enough to test our ideas; eg, there are many Sanskrit
versions of Digha Suttas, and at least one translation of a Digha
Agama from Chinese available online.
One of the things we would like to do is to link up with significant
resources that are already on the web. I don't have much familiarity
with what's there, apart from the VRI Pali canon, the CBETA Chinese
canon, and Access to Insight. So i'd like to ask the group if
they've got any suggestions?
What we are after is the links to:
1. Text, in Pali, Chinese, Sanskrit of any Digha sutta
2. Translation into English
3. essays, commentary, etc., about any Digha suttas. We will not
attempt to include everything, but significant references only. For
example, i imagine there must be countless references to the Maha
Satipatthana Sutta, but most of these will repeat the same basic
information. We would like to include a spectrum of works, from the
more technical and scholarly, to the more reflective, philosophical,
or practical. Our main interest would be on anything that discussed
the Pali, Chinese, Skt, and Tibetan on comparative grounds, but we
would also include articles based on just one tradition. Of course,
the vast majority of work will be based on the Pali.
If it was possible, i'd like to get a link and short description.
Hopefully, such information would be of interest to users of this
list, and the ones that are suitable could be included in www.sutta-
central.net
Any takers?
