Suttas/Agamas parellels

Postby danieLion » Fri Dec 28, 2012 1:57 am

Does anyone know where might I find a complete list of the Chinese Agamas paralleled to the Pali Suttas (not the texts, just the titles/numeric assignments)?
Thanks.

This might help -

It's not complete, based on new discoveries being made constantly which need to be uploaded. Eg, they still have not uploaded the Chinese parallels to AN 5.28.

Unless you're really au fait with the Taisho numbering system, the numbering of the Chinese parallels can be quite daunting.
