The study of Sinitic Buddhist texts from Khara-Khoto
The article provides a review of two groups of Tangut texts: pertaining to the textual cluster of Huayan Buddhism and another one associated with the Platform Sūtra. Our results show that the Huayan and Chan texts from the Tangut state can be distributed between two chronological layers: the original Northern texts, originating from Wutaishan, and traditionally identified as the Liao texts; the other layer is represented by the later Hangzhou tex…
Textual Evidence for Sino-Tibetan Buddhism in Xixia
The article introduces four case studies to argue for the existence of Sino-Tibetan Buddhism in the Xixia Kingdom (1038–1227). The first case is based on the Yuan period (1271–1368) ritual compilations by the Tangut monk Yixing Huijue 一行慧覺 (d. 1319?); the three others are based on material dating from the Xixia period. The study examines textual examples of Sino-Tibetan intercourse and concludes that the major framework for exchange was Avataṃsak…
Tangut Buddhism and the Bodhicittotpādasamādānavidhi
The paper introduces part of the Tangut textual corpus, associated with the Bodhicaryāvatāra and the ritual composition by Jitāri, Bodhicittotpādasamādānavidhi. We conclude that in Xixia (1038–1227) there was a textual cluster revolving around these two texts. Tanguts generated a local tradition of studying both of these texts, whereas the Bodhicittotpādasamādānavidhi appeared to have been an important text prescribed for study by the Tangut monk…
“The Five Parts of the Dharma Realm”
The paper discusses the recently identified collection of sems sde class texts in Tangut translation. The author provides initial textual analysis of the texts in the composition and offers several suggestions concerning the historical setting of these texts. There is also evidence allowing to suggest that several versions of the “five early translations”, probably based on varying Tibetan versions, were current in the Tangut State. The study rev…
Buddhism and Confucianism in the Tangut State
From a generic perspective, the Tangut ideological system can be represented as the conflation of three major factors: in the course of their history, the Tanguts were open to ideological inflows originating mainly on the Central Plains (1, Buddhism and Confucianism) and the Tibetan Plateau (2, Buddhism). These two inflows encountered the Tangut indigenous ideology (3), which had obviously emerged before the proclamation of the Tangut State, and …

Buddhist Connections between the Liao and Xixia:Preliminary Considerations K. J. Solonin Introduction The general conclusion of the research presented below is that the Liao empire (907–1125) was not only a military superpower in East Asia, dominating vast areas of the Mongolian steppes and territories in China proper, but also exerted a strong cultural and religious impact on its neighbors, including Koryŏ and the Great Kingdom of White and High…
