Gu jing lu (Catalogue of Ancient Sūtras), one fascicle.
Note upon investigation: Many of the old catalogues refer to it as the Gu lu (Ancient Catalogue). It thus seems to be the catalogue of sūtras brought by Shi Lifang and others during the Qin period.
Jiu lu (Old Catalogue), one fascicle.
Note upon examination: It seems to be that when Liu Xiang collated books in the Heavenly Pavilion under the Western Han, he frequently came across Buddhist sūtras. This was indeed a catalogue of ancient scriptures preserved in caches, referring to those stored in the walls of Confucius' house, or hidden among the people during the book-burning by Zheng of Qin.
Han shi fojing mulu (Catalogue of Buddhist Scriptures of the Han Dynasty), one fascicle.
Note upon examination: It seems to have been compiled in connection with the translation of the Sūtra of Forty-two Chapters and other texts by Kāśyapa Mātaṅga.
Wei shi shamen Zhu Shixing Han lu (The Han Catalogue by the Śramaṇa Zhu Shixing of the Wei Dynasty), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: He was originally a śramaṇa from Yingchuan who lectured on the Daoxing jing in Luoyang. He compiled this catalogue in connection with that.
Xi Jin shamen Zhu Fahu zhongjing lu (Catalogue of Various Scriptures by the Śramaṇa Zhu Fahu of the Western Jin), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: He was a śramaṇa of the Great Monastery outside the Qingmen Gate of Chang'an during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Jin. Having translated scriptures extensively, he produced this catalogue accordingly.
Xi Jin qingxinshi Nie Daozhen zhongjing lu (Catalogue of Various Scriptures by the Upāsaka Nie Daozhen of the Western Jin), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: During the Yongjia era of Emperor Hui of the Jin, he served as the scribe under Master [Zhu Fa]hu. Later, he translated scriptures himself and produced a catalogue accordingly.
Er Zhao jing lu (Catalogue of Scriptures of the Two Zhao Dynasties), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: It seems to be marginal notes made from afar regarding various catalogues during the time of the two Shi Zhao regimes; the compiler's surname and given name are unknown.
Qian Qin shamen Shi Dao'an zongli zhongjing mulu (Comprehensive Catalogue of Various Scriptures by the Śramaṇa Shi Dao'an of the Former Qin), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: He was a śramaṇa of the Former Qin during the Taiyuan era of Emperor Xiaowu of the Eastern Jin. Before him, the various catalogues merely listed sūtra titles and ranks according to the Greater or Lesser [Vehicles], but gave no records distinguishing the persons or reigns. Later generations tracing their origin were unable to ascertain their provenance. Dao'an then collected all the titles, indicated their historical eras, classified the new and the old, and established their authorship. That the various scriptures have reliable bases became clear starting from this. Later catalogues relied on it and expanded it. One thus knows that a wise master rises preeminently in a glorious age destined for him. How could one not take this as a mirror? Its text can be seen in Sengyou's catalogue.
Hou Qin shamen Shi Sengrui Er Qin lu (Catalogue of the Two Qin Dynasties by the Śramaṇa Shi Sengrui of the Later Qin), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: He was a śramaṇa of Chang'an during the Hongshi era of Yao Xing of the Later Qin. He was the disciple of the aforementioned Dao'an. His spiritual faculties were clear and penetrating, and his intellect was outstanding. Participating in the translations in Kumārajīva's atelier, he produced many writings and compilations.
Dong Jin shamen Zhu Daozu zhongjing lu (Catalogues of Various Scriptures by the Śramaṇa Zhu Daozu of the Eastern Jin), four sections:
Wei shi jing lu mu (Catalogue of Scriptures of the Wei Era), one fascicle;
Wu shi jing lu mu (Catalogue of Scriptures of the Wu Era), one fascicle;
Jin shi za lu (Miscellaneous Catalogue of the Jin Era), one fascicle;
Hexi jing lu mu (Catalogue of Scriptures of the Hexi Region), one fascicle.
Note on the four catalogues above: Based on examination, Shi Daoliu, a disciple of Master [Hui]yuan of Donglin Temple on Mount Lu in the Eastern Jin, initiated their compilation. He passed away before completing them, and his fellow student Daozu finished them for him.
Dong Jin shamen Zhi Mindu jinglun doulu (Comprehensive Catalogue of Sūtras and Śāstras by the Śramaṇa Zhi Mindu of the Eastern Jin), one fascicle.
Note based on examination: He was a śramaṇa of Mount Yuzhang during the reign of Emperor Cheng of the Jin. Because he collated all ancient and modern scriptures together, he compiled the Comprehensive Catalogue. Mindu also compiled a Bie lu (Divergent Catalogue) in one section.
Qian Qi shamen Shi Wangzong lu (Catalogue by the Śramaṇa Shi Wangzong of the Former Qi), two fascicles.
Note based on examination: He was a śramaṇa during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Qi. The appearance of this catalogue is seen in the Liang Chu sanzang ji ji.
