You will find more information on this with a different (more correct) spelling of Vajracchedika.\nI think it is the Diamond Sutra which is a scripture or records of oral teaching by Buddha.\nThe number probably denotes different sections.\nGood luck with your project.  It sounds interesting.

I'm an old timer who got interested in Sri Lank forty years ago. I was fascinated by the Kandy Empire, the legend of Adam's peak, the singing shellfish at Lake Batticaloa, the construction of the ancient tanks among many other things. I read a book that I still find interesting called "Jungle Tide". I forget the author's name but he must have written it during the British occupation as he was English. I am sure there are many other fascinating archaeological and educational opportunities in your country, which, I regret, I never did visit. Still, after 40 years, my interest has been retained by what I read. My very best wishes with your project.
