The Blue Annals
von Roerich, George N.
The "Blue Annals" are the largest collection of historical material about Tibet. The texts deal mainly about the lives of great lamas and siddhas as well as the great kings and monasteries.
The work is divided into fifteen chapters, each dedicated to the history of a particular school or lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. It provides a comparative study of the chronological data given by T'ang Annas, Blue Annas, and Tunhuang chronicles.
The Blue Annals appears to be a faithful reproduction of the list given in the T'ang Annas with minor differences. The book concludes with the portrayal of the origin, etc. of the communities of the four schools.
It contains indexes for Sutras and Sastras, Personal Names and Book Titles and Personal Names (Tibetan), etc.
