[INDOLOGY] A study of "vijñāna"

[Martin Straube]

Dear Gleb,

not comprehensive for ancient India, but for early Pali reliable are

S. Hamilton, Identity and experience, London 1996, pp. 82ff.

T. Vetter, The ‘Khandha Passages’ in the Vinayapiṭaka and the four  
main Nikāyas, Wien 2000, pp. 63ff.

With best wishes
Martin
