仁王般若經疏 1.5

1.5

問：五部八部內何者攝也？答：五部如此經說，八部者《大品》、《小品》、《光讚》、《放光》、《文殊問》、《金剛般若》、《道行》、《天王問般若》。此《仁王問般若》是《天王問般若》攝。人王亦是天王也，故知《天王問般若》所攝也。

Question: Among the five divisions and eight divisions [of prajñā literature], which one subsumes it? Answer: The five divisions are as expounded in this sūtra. As for the eight divisions, they are the Pañcaviṃśatisāhasrikā, Aṣṭasāhasrikā, Guangzan, Fangguang, Mañjuśrīparipṛcchā, Vajracchedikā, Daoxing, and Heavenly King's Inquiries on Prajñā. This Prajñā Inquired by the Benevolent King is subsumed under The Prajñā Inquired by the Heavenly King. A human king is also a heavenly king; therefore we know it is subsumed under The Prajñā Inquired by the Heavenly King.
