大般涅槃経
According to Stephen Hodge, internal textual evidence in the "Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra", "Mahābherihāraka Parivarta Sūtra", and the "Mahāyāna Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra", indicates that these texts were first circulated in South India and then gradually propagated up to the northwest, with Kashmir being the other major center. The "Aṅgulimālīya Sūtra" gives a more detailed account by mentioning the points of distribution as including South India, the Vindhya Range, Bharuch, and Kashmir.
