A commentary says: Mouzi's given name is unknown. In a time when the Buddhist way had not yet flourished widely, he was nonetheless able to compose this treatise, adducing the deeds and teachings of the three schools to compare their merits, thereby dispelling worldly confusion and warding off external insults. This was truly a manifestation of a great bodhisattva, an envoy of the Tathāgata.
