𗣛𘟙𗯨𗙏𘝯𗖰𗚩 is the Tangut translation of Gāowáng Guānshìyīn jīng 高王觀世音經 (High King Avalokitesvara Sutra) [T2898]. It is a unique printed copy (cat. no. B51·002) held at the Palace Museum in Beijing, formerly in the collection of Zhōu Zhàoxiáng 周肇祥 (1880–1954). It is the latest dated Tangut printed text, with a colophon dated rénzǐ cyclical year of the Ming dynasty, on the 15th day of the 1st month of the 5th year of the "sun de" (= Xuāndé) era. Xuāndé 5 was not a rénzǐ year, so this must be a mistake for either Xuāndé 5 gēngxū year (1430) or Xuāndé 7 rénzǐ year (1432). BabelStone (talk) 15:49, 25 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
