The present work aims at contributing to the study of the basic view of Buddha in the Smaller Mahaprajñapdramita-sutras, and in particular focuses on the view of Sakyamuni Buddha in Early Mahayana Buddhism. Consequently, it becomes evident that a new view of Sakyamuni Buddha and Mahayana Buddha was established in the Smaller Mahaprajñapdaramita-sutras.
