In the third meeting of the seminar, Asuka Sango will discuss her translations of the Kuge Saishōkō chōmonshū 公家最勝講聴聞集, which records debate sessions that took place during the Saishōkō (lectures on and debates about the Golden Light Sūtra) from 1006 to 1215. The seminar will focus on three debate sessions recorded in this text.
