这一章提供了一个讨论和概述的大致日期的组成佛教密宗在中世纪早期南亚。它涵盖了尽可能多的重要密宗,以提供佛教密宗历史的全面纲要。许多佛教密宗都是不断发展的文本;它们是由不同的作者在几十年甚至几个世纪的时间里逐渐编辑、扩充和组织的。也经常发生的是,不同的作者群体分别发展了不同版本的密宗。这也是时间顺序研究的作用之一,尽可能地揭示密宗成长和繁衍的复杂过程。
This chapter provides a discussion and overview of the approximate dates of the composition of Buddhist tantras in early medieval South Asia. It covers as many important tantras as possible to provide a comprehensive rundown of the history of Buddhist tantras. Many Buddhist tantras are evolving texts; they were gradually compiled, enlarged, and organized by different authors over decades or in some cases even centuries. It also often happens that different groups of authors separately developed different versions of a tantra. It is also one of the roles of the chronological study, as far as possible, to reveal the complicated processes of growth and reproduction of the tantras.
