The Sanskrit text in the D?rgh?gama manuscript from Gilgit and a re-edition from fragments found on the Northern Silk Route
The Atanatiyasutra is part of the only Sanskrit manuscript known so far containing the complete Dirghagama, however fragmentary in parts. The Atanatiya is sutra 237 in the sequence of sutras. It belongs to the Yuganipata, the “Twin Section”, consisting of pairs of sutras. Unlike the nearly complete Sanskrit text preserved from the Atanatiyasutra from Gilgit only remnants of this sutra have been found at several sacred places along the northern trade route round the Taklamakan desert.
