Namaste🙏,

I would like to know are there any translations of Sarvastivada Buddhist texts in English ? In Sutta Central .

Maybe @cdpatton could help was he translates to English EBTs in Chinese, and as far as I know most of the Sarvastivadin texts are found in Chinese.

In SuttaCentral, the translations of the Madhyama Āgama and Saṃyukta Āgama would both be Sarvâstivāda. I’m not sure how much of the Sarvâstivāda Vinaya or Abhidharma has been translated; my impression is not much.

I love this Sutra, it’s give information about the request from Mara. Something that can’t be found in Pali texts…
