On Sanskrit Texts Discovered In Japan is a book written by Friedrich Max Muller, a German philologist and Orientalist. The book was first published in 1880 and is a detailed account of the discovery of Sanskrit texts in Japan. Muller describes the history and significance of these texts, which were found in the possession of a Japanese monk named Chikun Shonin. The texts include important works of Hinduism and Buddhism, such as the Mahabharata, the Ramayana, and the Lotus Sutra. Muller analyzes the translations and interpretations of these texts, and discusses the influence they have had on Japanese culture and religion. He also provides a detailed account of the life and work of Chikun Shonin, who played a key role in bringing these texts to the attention of scholars in Europe. On Sanskrit Texts Discovered In Japan is an important work of scholarship that sheds light on the history and cultural exchange between India and Japan.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
