| Description of names and attributes of the Buddhist deities from the Ādi Buddha to Sapta-Mānuṣi Buddha (seven human or mortal Buddhas), a complete study. Hodgson's paper on this subject was apparently first published in 1834. It was later reprinted in a volume of his collected essays [Hodgson_1874:115-118] with the statement that it had appeared in 1834 in the 'Bengal Asiatic Journal No. 29'. This is presumably a reference to the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal which contains no such article. | |||||||||||
