              Part of Papers of Daniel John Gogerly

              The manuscript is an original Gogerly translation of various fragments from the first 50 suttas of the Aṅguttara-nikāya. It includes Pāli, Sinhalese and English text. Written in Gogerly's hand in Sri Lanka (Ceylon), date unknown. The file includes 5 bound A4 notebooks of brown paper (having 19/20/16/18/32 sheets, respectively). Some of the sheets are loose. Notebook 4 is very fragile. The Aṅguttara-nikāya is a Buddhist scripture, the fourth of the five nikāyas ('collections') in the Sutta Piṭaka. This nikāya consists of several thousand suttas ascribed to the Buddha and his chief disciples, which are arranged in eleven books, according to the number of dhamma items referenced in them. Notebooks 4 and 5 includes a short vocabulary. Approx. 30.5cmX20cm.

              Part of Papers of Daniel John Gogerly

              The sub-series contains 12 numbered notebooks with Gogerly's translations of various jātaka stories. It seems that the collection is not complete as some of the notebooks are missing. In Theravāda Buddhism, the jātakas (c. 4th century BCE) are a textual division of the Pāli Canon, included in the Khuḍḍaka Nikāya ('Minor Collection') of the Sutta Piṭaka - the second group of the Pāli collection of Buddhist writings. The term mainly refers to the stories of Gautama Buddha's previous lives, in both human and animal form.
