The Zhang suozhi lun was spoken by the Imperial Preceptor for the crown prince, and translated by Great Master of Buddha Wisdom Shārapā. The first chapter, 'Vessel World', fully records the great earth, the wind, fire, and water discs, Mount Meru, the seven golden mountains, the four continents, the iron encircling mountains, the sun disc, the moon disc, the palaces of the constellations, and the heavens of the three realms. The second chapter, 'World of Sentient Beings', fully lists the hells, hungry ghosts, animals, the human realm, asuras, the heavenly realm, the characteristics of the beginning and end of the four kalpas of formation, persistence, destruction, and voidness, as well as the deeds of the ancestral lineage of Śākyamuni and successive wheel-turning kings. The latter parts treat the unconditioned five Dharmas of the fruit of the path, and so forth.
