Key Points

To examine the textual structure, translation methodology, and historical relationship between the Sanskrit–Tibetan bilingual Jātakastava and the Khotanese Jātakastava.

Examined historical authorship attribution to Jñānayaśas and evaluated the Tibetan translation techniques of Zhwa lu scholar Chos skyong bzang po.
The Sanskrit–Tibetan bilingual Jātakastava emphasizes the sequence of the six perfections (pāramitās), functioning as a concise model of classical Sanskrit hymnography.
The Khotanese text represents an expanded tenth-century recension circulating in Dunhuang, whereas the bilingual Sanskrit–Tibetan edition reflects an abridged fifteenth-century textual lineage shaped by Zhwa lu linguistic scholarship.
