大唐內典錄 4.14.4

4.14.4

Gaoseng zhuan (Biographies of Eminent Monks), fourteen fascicles (together with catalogue).
The above one work. In the reign of Emperor Wu, compiled by the monk Shi Huijiao of Jiaxiang Temple in Kuaiji. Huijiao was learned in both Buddhist and non-Buddhist disciplines and was skilled in lecturing on the sūtras and vinayas. He authored the Niepan yi in ten fascicles, as well as subcommentaries on the Fanwang precept scripture, which circulated widely and served as a model for the era.
Chengshi lun lei chao (Categorized Extracts from the Tattvasiddhi-śāstra), twenty fascicles.
The above was compiled in the Tianjian era by the upāsaka Yuan Tanyun; it is similar to the sūtra extracts compiled by Emperor Wenxuan of Qi; it also appears in Baochang's catalogue.
Fabao ji (Collection of Dharma Treasures), two hundred fascicles (also called Fabao lianbi [Linked Jade of Dharma Treasures]).
The above one work. When Emperor Jianwen, Xiao Gang, was in the Eastern Palace as crown prince, he personally inspected the Buddhist scriptures and assigned classifications, ordering various scholars to compile, copy, and concatenate them to complete this work. Arranged by category, it resembles the Hualin bianlüe; for negligent scholars, it saves more than half the effort.
Yilin (Forest of Meanings), eighty fascicles.
The above one work. In the Datong era, an imperial decree ordered the monk Shi Zhizang and twenty other eminent monks of Kaishan Temple to compile it. Wherever scriptures and treatises contained doctrinal categories, they were all extracted and grouped together by type, like a grove of worldly plants where nothing is left unplanted. At every great Dharma assembly, the emperor personally inspected it to observe the lectures and debates; the exchange between guest and host and the course of the doctrine were made as clear as one's palm.
Neidian boyao (Broad Essentials of the Buddhist Canon), thirty fascicles.
The above one work. Compiled by Yu Xiaojing, Secretary to the Prince of Xiangdong. It encompassed the essential matters contained throughout the scriptures and treatises and gathered them all comprehensively, quite like works such as the Huanglan and the Leiyuan. Xiaojing later renounced the world and took the name Huiming; after entering the passes, he is also said to have written further works. Indeed, this Boyao is an essential gateway to the various divisions of Buddhist studies.
