What is The Siddhasāra of Ravigupta, Vol. 1 The Sanskrit Text 1 about?
The Late Khotanese medical text entitled Siddhasāra first caught Emmerick’s interest in the 1960s and resulted in an immense amount of preliminary work, including an attempt to trace it in Arabic literature . Since “the key to a proper understanding of the Khotanese version lies in large part in the correct interpretation of the Sanskrit original and of its Tibetan rendering, both of which were used by the Khotanese translator” , he produced a first volume containing a critical edition of the Sanskrit, which was also based on three newly discovered manuscripts , and a second volume containing a critical edition and translation of the Tibetan –two books that were described by Dominik Wujastik as “one of the most exciting recent developments in the study of Indian medicine”.
