In the general part of this issue, R. H. Koch studies the
representation of Kārttikeya in Sri Lankan Buddhist monasteries and his
supplantation by the iconography of Skandakumāra.
In the Archiv für indische Philosophie, V. Eltschinger treats the
“kautukamaṅgalavāda” presented and criticized in the “Yogācārabhūmi”, with a
critical edition of the Sanskrit text, accompanied by the Tibetan and Chinese
texts, a translation and a discussion of the arguments against astral
determinism. E. Steinkellner unites the text of all fragments of
Vṛṣagaṇa/Vārṣagaṇya’s “Ṣaṣṭitantra” on inference and offers a translation of
this part of the lost work. In a further contribution, Steinkellner argues that
the two formulations of Dharmakīrti’s definition of a valid cognition in the
“Pramāṇavārttika” have been misinterpreted so far and clarifies that Dharmakīrti
provided only a single definition. Based on two manuscripts, J. Chu presents a
first critical edition and synopsis of Jitâri’s “Vijñaptimātratāsiddhi”.
The third part features twenty-nine reviews of books on a wide range of topics
relating to the cultural and intellectual history of South Asia and on the
history of the study of pre-modern South Asia.
