| Abstract | The paper deals with Sthiramati, a famous sixth-century commentator and master of the classical Indian Yogācāra-Vijñānavāda school of Mahāyāna thought, in the first introductory part, and with his views on the ālayavijñāna concept in the longer second part. Two of Sthiramati’s Yogācāra works have already been available in their original language long ago. In recent years, various old Sanskrit manuscripts of further works ascribed to him have been found so that now there are three original works of Sthiramati available that deal at length with the ālayavijñāna concept and other classical Yogācāra views. These are invaluable resources, which have to be studied much more carefully than up till now. At the same time, unsolved problems about Sthiramati’s identity, the works that can be safely ascribed to him, and his commentarial style have to be addressed. The second part of the article deals with his views on the ālayavijñāna concept on the basis of the three extant Sanskrit text mentioned above, namely the two commentaries Triṃśikābhāṣya and Pañcaskandhakavibhāṣā and the supercommentary Madhyāntavibhāgaṭīkā. This part is intended to be just an introductory comparative study of the pertinent sections of these texts. Therefore, special emphasis is laid on an accessible presentation of the problems involved, on referring to and summarizing earlier pertinent research, on a discussion of select terminological and doctrinal issues deemed to be particularly important, for instance, the relation to the other forms of mind, the subliminal character and objects of the ālayavijñāna and its combination with an idealistic philosophy. of the classical Indian Yogācāra-Vijñānavāda school of Mahāyāna thought, in thefirst introductory part, and with his views on the ālayavijñāna concept in the longersecond part.
