In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita SastraԻ徱첹ūٰ (नन्दिकसूत्�).—There are numerous references in the Buddhist texts to the Ի徱첹ūٰ. However, the original Sanskrit is lost and the ūٰ is known only by a Tibetan translation entitled Dga� ba can gyi mdo. One of the Karmavibhaṅgas in Chinese, the Fen pie chan ngo pao ying king, is very close in content to the Ի徱첹ūٰ. Also see the 2nd century Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter XXII).

Mahayana (महायान, mahāyāna) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many ūٰs of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā ūٰs.
