Next, clarifying the spurious scriptures circulating in the world: the *Scripture on the Descent of All Buddhas* in six wrappers, the *Scripture on the Pure-Practicing Upāsaka* in ten rolls, the *Treatise on Solitary Enlightened Ones*, the *Scripture of the Golden Coffin*, the *Scripture on Rescuing from Sickness*, the *Scripture on Resolving Doubts Concerning Sins and Merits*, the *Treatise on Deciding Correctly on the Vinaya*, the *Treatise of Upāli*, the *Treatise on Universal Decisions*, the *Treatise on Ānanda Requesting the Vinaya Precepts*, the *Treatise on Kāśyapa's Inquiries*, the *Treatise on Great Deportment Inquiries*, the *Scripture on the Five Pungent Roots*, the *Treatise of the Jeweled Garland*, the *Treatise on Universal Decisions Concerning Consciousness-Only*, the *Scripture of the Initial Teaching*, the *Scripture on Retribution for Sins*, the *Scripture on Offerings to the Sun Disk*, the *Scripture of the Milk-Light*, the *Scripture on the Practice of the Arhat*, the *Scripture on Retribution from the Field of Merit*, the *Scripture of the Precious Seal*, the *Treatise for Śrāmaṇeras*, the *Treatise on Essential Practices Inquired by Mañjuśrī*, the *Scripture of Tiwei*...
