[INDOLOGY] MAHAVASTU-ENGLISH VERSION

[Dan Lusthaus]

Jones, J.J. (trans.) (1949–56). The Mahāvastu (3 vols.) in Sacred Books of the Buddhists. London: Luzac & Co.

It's not a Mahayana text, however. It is attributed to the "Lokottaravādins belonging to the Mahāsaṅghikas".

  To All,
  Is there any English Translation of the Mahayana text MAHAVASTU available? This being the book which contains siginificant references about Siddhartha Gautam Buddha'a Birth.
