Fo suoxing zan jing zhuan (Buddhacarita), five fascicles (composed by the Bodhisattva Aśvaghoṣa; also called Fo benxing jing).
Translated under the Northern Liang by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Dharmakṣema (sole translation).
Fo benxing jing, seven fascicles (also called Fo benxing zan zhuan).
Translated under the Song by the śramaṇa Shi Baoyun of Liangzhou (sole translation).
The above text: The Da Zhou Lu catalogued it among retranslated Mahāyāna sūtras, stating that it was a different translation of the same original as the sixty-fascicle Fo benxing ji jing; this is an error.
The above two compilations, twelve fascicles, in the same case.
Zhuanji baiyuan jing (Avadānaśataka), ten fascicles, one case.
Translated under the Wu by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian (drawn from the Neidian Lu; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Chuyao jing, twenty fascicles (or called Chuyao lun; or nineteen fascicles).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the śramaṇa Zhu Fonian of Liangzhou during the Fu Qin era (sole translation).
Xianyu jing (Damamūkanidāna-sūtra), thirteen fascicles (or fifteen, sixteen, or seventeen).
Translated under the Northern Wei by the śramaṇa Huijue and others of Liangzhou in Gaochang Commandery (drawn from the Fanjing Tu; sole translation).
(I respectfully note: The Liang śramaṇa Sengyou's preface to the Xianyu jing states that Huijue and eight other monks from Hexi traveled to inquire into the Dharma. Arriving at the great monastery of Khotan, they encountered the quinquennial great assembly. The eight individuals divided to listen, each noting down what they heard. Returning to Gaochang, they compiled it into a single work, which is the aforementioned Xianyu jing. Earlier catalogues all catalogued it in the Sūtra Piṭaka. However, since it is a collective compilation of what was heard, it is not Ānanda's original recitation. How does it differ from other compilations? Cataloguing it into the primary sūtras was conceptually inappropriate. Therefore, it is now moved and attached to the records of compilations and biographies. The Chuyao jing and Baiyuan jing are likewise separate compilations, and also not the original recitation; they are thus appended here as well.)
The above two compilations, thirty-three fascicles, four cases (the first three cases contain eight fascicles each; the fourth case contains nine fascicles).
Daodi jing, one fascicle (or with 'Da' prefixed; an excerpt of the Xiuxing jing, originally an abridged foreign text).
Translated under the Later Han by the Parthian Tripiṭaka [master] An Shigao (added from omitted works; second translation).
The above sūtra is a different translation of a small portion of the later Xiuxing daodi jing. (According to Master Dao'an's preface, the śramaṇa Saṅgharakṣa compiled the essentials of the sūtra into one work of twenty-seven chapters. An Shigao extracted seven of the chapters compiled by Saṅgharakṣa into Chinese. Now, since the chapter names and numbers are identical, we know it was produced by An Shigao. This sūtra has seven chapters, eighteen sheets in total. Various catalogues state it is two fascicles; this is an error.)
Xiuxing daodi jing (Yogācārabhūmi), six fascicles (or simply called Xiuxing jing; or seven fascicles).
Translated under the Western Jin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Dharmarakṣa (third translation; of three translations, one is lost).
The above two sūtras are different translations of the same text. Composed within seven hundred years after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa by the Western Regions śramaṇa Saṅgharakṣa (Saṅgharakṣa is rendered Zhonghu in this land; the Indian Sanskrit is Saṅgharakṣa). Old catalogues included it in the sūtras, which is logically unsound. It does not differ in author from the subsequent Sengqieluoca suo ji jing. Why should one be recorded among the primary sūtras and one among the compilations? Precedent being such, it is appended here.
Sengqieluoca suo ji jing (Saṅgharakṣa-saṃkṣipta-saṃgraha), three fascicles (composed by Saṅgharakṣa; or five fascicles).
Translated under the Fu Qin by the Jibin Tripiṭaka [master] Saṅghabhūti and others (first translation; of two translations, one is lost).
The above three compilations, ten fascicles, in the same case.
Baiyu jing, four fascicles (composed by Saṅghasena; or five fascicles).
Translated under the Xiao Qi by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Guṇavṛddhi (sole translation).
Pusa benyuan jing, three fascicles (composed by Saṅghasena; or four fascicles, or three fascicles).
Translated under the Wu by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian (sole translation).
Dasheng xiuxing pusa xingmen zhu jing yaoji, three fascicles.
Translated under the Great Tang by the śramaṇa Shi Zhiyan of Zhixiang Temple (newly catalogued; sole translation).
The above three compilations, ten fascicles, in the same case.
Fu fazang yinyuan zhuan, six fascicles (or without the words 'Yinyuan'; or four fascicles, or three fascicles).
Translated under the Northern Wei by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka [master] Kiṃkārya together with Tanyao (third translation; of three translations, two are lost).
Zuochan sanmei jing, three fascicles (also called Pusa chanfa jing, or Chan jing; or two fascicles).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (first translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Furthermore, among various catalogues, there is also the Alanruo xi chanfa jing in two fascicles, stated to be a different translation of the same original as the Zuochan sanmei jing, and also said to be produced by Master Kumārajīva. Examining the phrasing, the beginning and end are entirely identical; it was merely divided into two works due to distinct titles. Since it is not an independent translation, it should not circulate concurrently.
Foyi jing, one fascicle (also called Foyi wang jing).
Translated under the Wu by the Indian śramaṇa Zhu Lüyan together with Zhi Yue (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Weiri zanan jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Wu by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Fo baniyuan mohejiaye fu fo jing, one fascicle (also called Jiaye fu fo banniepan jing).
Translated under the Eastern Jin by the Western Regions śramaṇa Zhu Tanwulan (sole translation).
Pusa he seyu fa, one fascicle (also called a jing) (first translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva.
Sipin xuefa jing, one fascicle (or without the word 'jing').
Translated under the Song by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Guṇabhadra (sole translation).
Fo ru niepan mijin jingang lishi ailian jing, one fascicle.
Anonymous translation (now appended to the Qin catalogue; sole translation).
Jiatianyan shuofa mojin ji jing, one fascicle.
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as Dao'an's lost translation (now appended to the Western Qin catalogue; sole translation).
Fo zhishen jing, one fascicle (or called Zhiyi jing, one).
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as Dao'an's lost translation (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Zhiyi jing, one fascicle (or called Fo zhishen jing).
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as Dao'an's lost translation (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
The above eleven compilations, eighteen fascicles, in the same case.
Zabaozang jing, eight fascicles (or thirteen fascicles).
Translated under the Northern Wei by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka [master] Kiṃkārya together with Tanyao (sole translation).
Naxian biqiu jing (Milindapañha), two fascicles (or simply called Naxian jing, three fascicles).
Anonymous translation (in the Eastern Jin catalogue, first edition; of two translations, one is lost).
The above two compilations, ten fascicles, in the same case.
Wumen chanjing yaofa, one fascicle (composed by the Great Dhyāna Master Buddhamitra).
Translated under the Song by the Jibin Tripiṭaka [master] Dharmamitra (added from omitted works; second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Damoduoluo chan jing, two fascicles (also called Buqingguan chan jing xiuxing fangbian).
Translated under the Eastern Jin by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Buddhabhadra (sole translation).
The above text was composed by Dharmatrāta and Buddhasena (Sena was a native of Jibin, a dhyāna master of that country and teacher of Buddhabhadra; Zhiyan traveled to the Western Regions and also studied meditation under Sena). The fourteen sūtras from Zuochan sanmei downward were catalogued among sūtras in the Zhou Lu. Because they are not the Buddha's preaching, they are now transferred here. Although the Zabaozang jing compiles the Buddha's words, it also intermixes other narratives and is not purely spoken by the Buddha; hence it is entered among the compilations.
Chanfa yaojie, two fascicles (also called Chanyao jing).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (first translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Chanyao heyu jing, one fascicle (titled Chanyao jing heyu pin).
Later Han anonymous translation (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Neishen guan zhangju jing, one fascicle.
Later Han anonymous translation (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Faguan jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Western Jin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Dharmarakṣa (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Siwei yaolüe fa, one fascicle (or with the word 'jing' added).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (added from omitted works; second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Shi'er you jing, one fascicle.
(Translated under the Eastern Jin by the Western Regions śramaṇa Kāludaka; added from omitted works; second translation; of three translations, two are lost).
Jiu zapiyu jing, two fascicles (also called Zapiyu ji jing).
Translated under the Wu by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Kang Senghui (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Zapiyu jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Later Han by the Yuezhi Tripiṭaka [master] Lokakṣema (added from omitted works; sole translation).
The above ten compilations, thirteen fascicles, in the same case.
Zapiyu jing, two fascicles (also called Pusa duren jing).
Anonymous translation (in the Later Han catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Zapiyu jing, two fascicles (compiled by the bhikṣu Daolüe).
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Ayuwang piyu jing, one fascicle.
Anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Ayuwang jing (Aśokāvadāna), ten fascicles (or with 'Da' prefixed).
Translated under the Liang by the Funan Tripiṭaka [master] Saṅghapāla (added from omitted works; second translation).
The above four compilations, fifteen fascicles, in the same case.
Ayuwang zhuan, seven fascicles (also called Da Ayuwang jing; or five fascicles).
Translated under the Western Jin by the Parthian Tripiṭaka [master] An Famin (first translation).
The above two accounts are different translations of the same text. They were produced only when King Aśoka appeared over one hundred years after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa. Their placement among the Mahāyāna sūtras in the Da Zhou Lu is an error. (Catalogues such as Changfang also state that Saṅghapāla produced another five-fascicle Ayuwang zhuan; this is an error. The former sūtra is itself the account, and should not be entered twice.)
Ayuwang xi huaimu yinyuan jing, one fascicle (also called Wangzi Fayi huaimu yinyuan jing).
Translated under the Fu Qin by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Dharmanandi during the Yao Qin era (added from omitted works; second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Si ahan muchao jie, two fascicles (composed by the arhat Vasubhadra).
Translated under the Fu Qin by the Western Regions śramaṇa Kumārabodhi and others (added from omitted works; sole translation).
The above three compilations, ten fascicles, in the same case.
Faju jing (Dharmapada), two fascicles (also called Faju ji; composed by the Venerable Dharmatrāta).
Translated under the Wu by the Indian śramaṇa Vighna and others (second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Fascicle 1 of the Abhidharma-vibhāṣā-śāstra states: As in the Faju jing, the World-Honoured One expounded in diverse ways across various regions and settlements for the sake of sentient beings. After the Buddha's extinction, the Venerable Dharmatrāta (translated here as Fajiu) grouped those concerning impermanence into the Chapter on Impermanence, up to those concerning brahmins into the Chapter on Brahmins. Thus we know this sūtra was composed by Dharmatrāta. In the Zhou Ruzang Lu, it was catalogued among Mahāyāna sūtras as well as in compilations and biographies; duplicating it before and after is a grave error.
Faju piyu jing, four fascicles (also called Faju benmo jing; or five fascicles, or six fascicles).
Translated under the Western Jin by the śramaṇas Shi Fali together with Faju (second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
The above text: Explaining its similarities and differences with the preceding Faju jing: the preceding sūtra only compiles verses without prose, whereas this subsequent sūtra also explains the origins of the verses, noting under what causes and conditions the World-Honoured One spoke them. Compared to the preceding verses, these are abridged and incomplete. Moreover, between the earlier and later texts, the verses vary in quantity. The Zhou Lu's cataloguing of it among Mahāyāna sūtras is an error.
Jiaye jie jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Later Han by the Parthian Tripiṭaka [master] An Shigao (added from omitted works; first translation; of three translations, two are lost).
Zhuanji sanzang ji zazang zhuan, one fascicle.
Anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Sanhui jing, one fascicle.
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as Dao'an's variant sūtra of Liang territory (now appended to the Northern Liang catalogue; added from omitted works; sole translation).
Apitan wu faxing jing, one fascicle (also called Apitan kuhui jing; or without the character 'xing').
Translated under the Later Han by the Parthian Tripiṭaka [master] An Shigao (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Ahan koujie shi'er yinyuan jing, one fascicle (also simply called Ahan koujie jing, or Duan shi'er yinyuan jing).
Translated under the Later Han by the Parthian upāsaka An Xuan together with Yan Fotiao (sole translation).
Xiao daodi jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Later Han by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka [master] Zhi Yao (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Wenshushili fayuan jing, one fascicle (or with the character 'ji' added).
Translated under the Eastern Jin by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Buddhabhadra (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Liu pusa ming, one fascicle (Changfang's Ruzang Lu states that the names of the six bodhisattvas should also be chanted and preserved).
Later Han anonymous translation (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Yibai wushi zanfo song (Śatapañcāśatka-stotra), one fascicle (composed by the Venerable Mātṛceṭa).
Translated under the Great Tang by the Tripiṭaka [master] Yijing (newly catalogued; sole translation).
Zan Guanshiyin pusa song, one fascicle.
Translated during the reign of the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang by the śramaṇa Shi Huizhi of Foshouji Temple (drawn from the Da Zhou Lu; sole translation, added from omitted works).
The above twelve compilations, sixteen fascicles, in the same case.
Wuming luocha ji, one fascicle (also called Wuming luocha jing; or two fascicles).
Anonymous translation (added from omitted works; sole translation; now appended to the Qin catalogue).
Maming pusa zhuan (Biography of Bodhisattva Aśvaghoṣa), one fascicle.
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Longshu pusa zhuan (Biography of Bodhisattva Nāgārjuna), one fascicle.
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Tipo pusa zhuan (Biography of Bodhisattva Āryadeva), one fascicle.
Translated under the Yao Qin by the Tripiṭaka [master] Kumārajīva (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Posoupandou fashi zhuan (Biography of Dharma Master Vasubandhu), one fascicle (here rendered Tianqin).
Translated under the Chen by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Paramārtha (added from omitted works; second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Longshu pusa wei Chantuojia wang shuofa yaoji (Suhṛllekha), one fascicle.
Translated under the Song by the Jibin Tripiṭaka [master] Guṇavarman (drawn from the old Tang catalogue; first translation).
Quanfa zhuwang yaoji, one fascicle (composed by the Bodhisattva Nāgārjuna).
Translated under the Song by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Saṅghavarman (added from omitted works; second translation).
Longshu pusa quanjie wang song, one fascicle.
Translated during the reign of the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang by the Tripiṭaka [master] Yijing (newly catalogued; third translation).
The above three compilations are different translations of the same text. (The verses of the first two versions were bound together as a single fascicle across various canon collections; they are now separated into two scrolls.)
Bintoulu Duluoshe wei Youdayan wang shuofa jing, one fascicle.
Translated under the Song by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Guṇabhadra (sole translation).
There is also a Bintoulu wei wang shuofa jing in one fascicle whose text is identical to this; hence it is not entered twice.
Qing Bintoulu fa, one fascicle (or with the word 'jing' added).
Translated under the Song by the śramaṇa Shi Huijian (second translation; of two translations, one is lost).
Fenbie yebao lüe, one fascicle (composed by the Bodhisattva Dayong; or with the word 'ji' added).
Translated under the Song by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Saṅghavarman (added from omitted works; sole translation).
Jiading biqiu shuo danglai bian jing, one fascicle.
An anonymous translation in Sengyou's catalogue (now appended to the Song catalogue; sole translation, added from omitted works).
Da aluohan Nantimituoluo suoshuo fazhu ji (Nandimitrāvadāna), one fascicle.
Translated under the Great Tang by the Tripiṭaka [master] Xuanzang (drawn from the Neidian Lu; sole translation).
Jin qishi lun (Sāṃkhyakārikā), three fascicles (also called Sengqie lun; or two fascicles).
Translated under the Chen by the Indian Tripiṭaka [master] Paramārtha (sole translation).
The above treatise: Composed by the non-Buddhist sage Kapila, elucidating the twenty-five principles, namely the Sāṃkhya; in the sūtras it is referred to as the Kapila Treatise. (In both Changfang's and the Neidian catalogues, Paramārtha's translations contain the Jin qishi lun in three fascicles and additionally the Sengqie lun in three fascicles; retaining both titles is an error.)
Shengzong shijuyi lun (Daśapadārtha-śāstra), one fascicle.
Translated under the Great Tang by the Tripiṭaka [master] Xuanzang (drawn from the Fanjing Tu; sole translation).
The above treatise: Composed by the superior one, Candramati, elucidating the ten padārthas. (The treatise originally composed by the Ulūka sage had only six padārthas; Candramati added four to complete ten. Treating the roots and branches together, it is thus named Shengzong shijuyi lun.) In the sūtras it is referred to as the Vaiśeṣika treatise. (These two treatises of Sāṃkhya and Vaiśeṣika are not the Buddha's teaching, but are foremost among non-Buddhist schools. They were translated merely to allow learned scholars to know the heterodox doctrines in detail.)
The above fifteen compilations, seventeen fascicles, in the same case.
