The Madhyama Agama was translated into Chinese from a now lost Indian original in 398 CE. It corresponds mainly to the Majjhima Nikaya of the Pali canon, although many of its sutras have parallels in other sections of the Pali canon.
The Madhyama Āgama (Taishō 26), or Collection of Middle-length Discourses, belongs to the earliest stratum of Buddhist sutra literature. The dialogues between Śākyamuni Buddha and his disciples and followers present the teachings of early Buddhism on karma, death and rebirth, and the training of the mind in order to reach nirvana. The speakers often make use of parables and tales to illustrate the correct understanding of early doctrine.
