4.6.2

Text on Inviting the Holy Sangha to Bathe (both recorded in the Gaoseng zhuan and the Bie lu).
The above five works, totaling twenty-seven fascicles, were translated during the reign of Emperor Wen by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Saṅghavarman (rendered in Song as Zhongkai). In the tenth year of the Yuanjia era, he arrived at Jianye. Skilled in the Vinaya-piṭaka and thoroughly versed in the Miśrakābhidharma-hṛdaya-śāstra (Zaxin), he was revered for his monastic discipline by Liu Yikang, Prince of Pengcheng, who requested him as his teacher; his fame was renowned throughout the capital. Seeing that Varman had an exquisite understanding of the Zaxin and could recite it fluently, Hui觀 of Da場 Si—although earlier Tripiṭaka masters had translated it, it had not yet been copied out properly—earnestly requested him to translate it again. Baoyun interpreted the speech, while Huiguan transcribed it with his own brush; the task was completed in a single cycle. Thereafter, in succession, he translated texts such as the Mātṛkā.

The above seventy-seven works, totaling one hundred and sixty-one fascicles, were translated during the reign of Emperor Wen by Guṇabhadra, a Tripiṭaka master from Central India (rendered in Song as Gongdexian). He was well versed in the Mahāyāna teachings, and people of that time referred to him as 'Mahāyāna' or 'Yān'. In the twelfth year of the Yuanjia era, he came to Yangdu. The Emperor revered him deeply, and both Liu Yikang, Prince of Pengcheng, and Liu Yixuan, Prince of Nanjiao, took him as their teacher. By imperial decree he resided at Zhihuan Si, and was requested to translate works such as the Saṃyuktāgama. Baoyun interpreted the speech, while Huiguan transcribed it with his brush. Later, following the Prince of Qiao to garrison and pacify Jingzhou, he translated texts such as the Aśokarāja-sūtra again at Xin Si. In total there were over a hundred fascicles, for most of which his disciple Fayong translated the speech. The Prince of Qiao invited him to lecture on the Avataṃsaka-sūtra; Guṇabhadra considered that he had not yet mastered the Song language, so morning and evening he supplicated Avalokiteśvara, and subsequently dreamt that his head was replaced. The next morning when he went to lecture, his eloquence flowed like a torrent. The rest of his lifetime's spiritual awakening and comprehension is fully detailed in the Biographies of Eminent Monks. Sengyou's catalogue states only that Guṇabhadra translated seventy-three fascicles; now, having examined the various catalogues, they are all completely listed here.
Sūtra of the Secret Essentials of Dhyāna, in three fascicles (also called Essentials of the Dharma of Dhyāna, translated at Zhihuan Si in the eighteenth year of the Yuanjia era; recorded in Sengyou's catalogue).
