Synopsis
Excerpt from Sanyutta-Nikāya, Vol. 6: Indexes
Nor is it of great use to one inquiring into ideas, rather than into names or words, to find the references to a sub ject sampled in the manner that is quite legitimate when the interest is purely philological or phraseological. Does the subject recur frequently in the compilation, or rarely Sampled references will not help us here. For an answer to such a question a somewhat more exhaustive treatment is wanted. And where the citations are numerous the inquirer can fairly demand further guidance in the shape of grouped references and frequent contexts.
For the Pitakas make, even when their repetitions are discounted, very formidable demands on the intellectual digestion. They are more than half as long. Again as the Bible. And it is easy to see, by the very partial citations that are sometimes made, and the mutually conflicting judgments sometimes arrived at, how great is the need of retraversing and consolidating, by works of reference, the knowledge that has been opened up through the publica tions of the Pali Text Society. There is, too, an immediate use for such works of reference in hastening on the labour of compiling the sorely needed new Pali dictionary.
