The series contains four manuscripts that are related to Gogerly's translation of the Mahāvagga. The Mahāvagga is the first volume of the Theravādin Buddhist Khaṇḍhaka book (from the Vinaya Piṭaka), and includes accounts of the Buddha's and his great disciples' awakenings, as well as rules for uposatha days (days of mindful observance) and monastic ordination.
