Re: Numbering schemes adopted for Vinaya Piṭaka

Dear Balaji,

As your preferred script for reading Pāli is Devanāgarī, you might be
interested in downloading a pdf copy of a printed Indian 1956 edition of the
Mahāvagga from the following Indian website:

http://www.dli.ernet.in/handle/2015/486150

There are Burmese and PTS page references in the margins and R 197 starts on
p. 215 of the printed text. Type 253 in the Adobe goto page window.

In the late 1970s you could order the complete Tipiṭaka set of 41 volumes
from Motilal Banarsidass for about $50 including the postage. I managed to
get 40 of those volumes back then. The general editor of the set is J.
Kashyap and the editon is mainly based on the Burmese BCS which was also
being printed around the same time.

Best wishes,

Jim
