Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna-sūtra, seventy fascicles (seven cases), translated by Gautama Prajñāruci, a Brāhmaṇa under the Northern Wei.
(The Da Zhou Catalogue classifies this Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna-sūtra as a repeated translation, stating that it is a different translation of the same text as the Shanshi ewang jing [Goose King of Auspicious Time Sūtra]; this is an error. The Shanshi ewang jing was copied out from this sūtra: that is an extracted text, while this is the sole translation.)
Buddhacaritasaṃgraha-sūtra, sixty fascicles (six cases), translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Jñānagupta and others under the Sui.
(The Da Zhou Catalogue classifies this Buddhacaritasūtra as a Mahāyāna repeated translation, stating that it is a different translation of the same text as the seven-fascicle Benxing jing; this is an error. That [other text] consists of verses of praise and differs vastly from this one. Various catalogues have placed it either among the Mahāyāna sūtras or inside compilations and biographies; fearing that this introduces distortion, it has now been moved and entered here.)
Itivṛttaka-sūtra, seven fascicles, translated by Xuanzang, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang (derived from the Neidian Lu).
Xingqihang jing, two fascicles (also titled Yanjie su yuan jing; the title notes it is extracted from the Kṣudrakapiṭaka), translated by Kang Mengxiang, a foreign Tripiṭaka master under the Later Han.
(The Da Zhou Catalogue classifies this Xingqihang jing as a repeated translation, stating that it is a different translation of the same text as the Muqiang cijiao yinyuan jing [Sūtra on the Karmic Conditions of the Wooden Spear Piercing the Foot]; this is an error. A close examination of the sūtra text reveals ten karmic conditions in all; the Muqiang cijiao jing is just one of those ten conditions. Being an extract circulating independently, like the Guanyin jing and similar texts, and not a retranslation, this is therefore the sole translation.)
Karmavibhaṅga-sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Gautama Dharmaprājña, Prefect of Yangchuan Commandery under the Sui.
The above three works, ten fascicles, are in the same case. (Regarding the Karmavibhaṅga-sūtra, the Da Zhou Catalogue states that it is a different translation of the same text as the Zuifu baoying jing; this is incorrect. Examining their words, phrasing, and doctrinal import, they are vastly divergent and dissimilar; thus it is a sole translation.)
Great Ānāpānasmṛti Sūtra, two fascicles (also simply titled Great Ānāpāna Sūtra; Master Daoan calls it Lesser Ānāpāna; sometimes in one fascicle), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
(The Da Zhou and other catalogues further list a Great Ānāpāna Sūtra in one fascicle, also said to be translated by An Shigao. Comparing its words and phrasing, it is identical to the first fascicle of the Ānāpānasmṛti Sūtra. As the text is entirely identical, it is not listed again.)
Skandhadhātuvāyatana-sūtra, two fascicles (sometimes written with the character chu [elimination], which is an error; sometimes in one fascicle), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Chuchu jing, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Mayi jing, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han (supplemented and entered here).
Fenbie shan’e suoqi jing, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han (supplemented and entered here).
Chujia yuan jing, one fascicle (also titled Chujia yinyuan jing), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Ahange zhengxing jing, one fascicle (also titled Zhengyi jing), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Eighteen Narakas Sūtra, one fascicle (or titled Eighteen Hells Sūtra), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Fashouchen jing, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Chanxing faxiang jing, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.

Jianduo guowang jing, one fascicle (sometimes without the character guo), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.

Heishi fanzhi jing, one fascicle, translated by Zhi Qian, Yuezhi upāsaka under the Wu (supplemented and entered here).
Zhigou jing, one fascicle (Sengyou states it is the same as Kuanggu jing [Mad Dog Sūtra]), translated by Zhi Qian, Yuezhi upāsaka under the Wu (supplemented and entered here).
Fenbie jing, one fascicle (anciently said to be the same text as the Anan fenbie jing and others, which is incorrect), translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master under the Western Jin (supplemented and entered here).
Eight Uposatha Precepts Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Juqu Jingsheng, layman under the Song (supplemented and entered here).
Ajiuliu jing, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an ancient sūtra from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Han catalogue; supplemented and entered here).
Filial Son Sūtra, one fascicle (also titled Sūtra on the Filial Son Repaying Kindness); Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue; supplemented and entered here).
The above twenty-two works, twenty-four fascicles, are in the same case.
Five Hundred Disciples' Sūtra of Their Own Former Origins, one fascicle (sometimes without the words zisui; also called Benmo), translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master under the Western Jin.
Mahākāśyapa-avadāna-sūtra, one fascicle (sometimes without the word da), translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master under the Western Jin.
Siziqin jing, one fascicle, translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master under the Western Jin.
Rāhula-kṣānti-sūtra, one fascicle (or simply Renru jing), translated by the śramaṇa Shi Faju under the Western Jin.

Shahe biqiu gongde jing, one fascicle, translated by the śramaṇa Shi Faju under the Western Jin.
Shifeishi jing, one fascicle (or simply Shi jing), translated by the foreign Dharma master Ruoluoyan (the imperial reign is unknown; derived from the sūtra colophon).
(All catalogues state that this Shifeishi jing was translated by the Western Jin śramaṇa Faju. But the postscript to the sūtra states: 'The foreign Dharma master Ruoluoyan, holding the foreign manuscript in hand, orally proclaimed and translated it; the monk of Liangzhou recorded and copied it in Yutian City.' We now take the sūtra colophon as correct. Since the imperial reign is unknown, it is provisionally appended to the Western Jin catalogue.)
Zi’ai jing, one fascicle (or titled Zi’ai bu zi’ai), translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin.
Zhongxin jing, one fascicle (also titled Zhongxin zhengxing jing), translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin (supplemented and entered here).
Jianzheng jing, one fascicle (also titled Shengsie bianshi jing), translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin.
Dayu shi jing, one fascicle, translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin.
Ānanda's Seven Dreams Sūtra, one fascicle (or simply Seven Dreams Sūtra), translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin.

Twelve Chapters on Saṃsāra Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Guṇabhadra, Indian Tripiṭaka master under the Song.
Sūtra on the Karmic Retribution of Sin and Merit, one fascicle (also titled Sūtra on Transmigrating the Five Destinies and the Karmic Retribution of Sin and Merit), translated by Guṇabhadra, Indian Tripiṭaka master under the Song.
(The Da Zhou Catalogue additionally lists a one-fascicle Sūtra on Transmigrating the Five Destinies and the Karmic Retribution of Sin and Merit. Examining its phrasing, it is identical with this one; only the titles differ in being expanded or abridged. Since there is no textual difference, only one copy is retained.)
Wuwufanfu jing, one fascicle (also titled Wu fanfu dayi jing), translated by Juqu Jingsheng, layman under the Song.
Fo da seng da jing, one fascicle, translated by Juqu Jingsheng, layman under the Song.
Yeqi jing, one fascicle, translated by Juqu Jingsheng, layman under the Song.

Sūtra on the Inquiries of the Stainless Upāsikā, one fascicle, translated by Gautama Prajñāruci, a Brāhmaṇa under the Northern Wei.
The above thirty works, thirty fascicles, are in the same case.
Five Blessings of the Worthy Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Bo Fazu, śramaṇa of Henei under the Western Jin.
Sūtra of the Deva's Questions, one fascicle, translated by Xuanzang, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang (derived from the Neidian Lu).
(The Da Zhou and other catalogues assign both the Five Blessings of the Worthy Sūtra and the Sūtra of the Deva's Questions to the Mahāyāna sūtras. Examining their style and doctrinal tenets, they clearly belong to the Hīnayāna; hence they have been moved and entered here.)
Saṃgharakṣita-avadāna-sūtra, one fascicle (sometimes with the word yinyuan), anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue).
Hujing jing, one fascicle, anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue).
Soapberry Seed Sūtra, one fascicle (or written with the character huan or xuan), anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue).

Luzhi zhangzhe yinyuan jing, one fascicle, anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue).
Five Kings Sūtra, one fascicle, anonymous translation (now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue).
Merit of Renunciation Sūtra, one fascicle, anonymous translation (now appended to the Three Qin catalogue; supplemented and entered here).
(There are three versions of the Merit of Renunciation Sūtra in circulation. Although the other two differ in length, both are extracts from the Damamūkanidāna-sūtra, which states that the Buddha taught it at the Kalandaka Bamboo Grove in Rājagṛha; both are now listed in the catalogue of extracted texts. In this version, the Buddha taught it in the city of Vaiśālī for the Licchavi prince Vīrasena. Within it, it also states: 'Vīrasena means Courageous Army in Qin speech.' Although the translator's name is unknown, it was certainly translated during the Qin dynasty.)
Zhandanshu jing, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an ancient classical sūtra from Master Daoan's catalogue (Fashang's catalogue states it was translated by Kumārajīva, which is incorrect; now appended to the Han catalogue).
Eduohuoduoqi jing, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue).
King Puda Sūtra, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue).
Sūtra on the Encoffining and Funeral after the Buddha's Parinirvāṇa, one fascicle (also titled Biqiu shi jing, or Shi biqiu jing); Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue).
Hārītī Sūtra, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue; supplemented and entered here).
King Fanmonan Sūtra, one fascicle; Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation from Master Daoan's catalogue (now appended to the Western Jin catalogue; supplemented and entered here).
Sūtra on the Difficulty of Repaying Parents' Kindness, one fascicle (also titled Qinbao), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han (supplemented and entered here).
Sundarī Sūtra, one fascicle (sometimes prefixed with the word fanzhi), translated by Zhi Qian, Yuezhi upāsaka under the Wu.
Xinsui jing, one fascicle, translated by Zhu Tanwulan, śramaṇa of the Western Regions under the Eastern Jin.
(The Da Zhou and other catalogues state that the three sūtras including the Sūtra on the Difficulty of Repaying Parents' Kindness come from the Madhyamāgama. Examining the unabridged Madhyamāgama text, these sūtras are not there. Although the twenty-fourth fascicle of the Ekottarikāgama contains an account of the Pavāraṇā ceremony, the text and meaning are entirely different; hence they are entered here.)
Simile of the Herd of Cattle Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by the śramaṇa Shi Faju under the Western Jin.
(The Da Zhou Catalogue states that the Simile of the Herd of Cattle Sūtra comes from the Ekottarikāgama. Examining that work, it is not there; hence it is entered here.)
Nine Untimely Deaths Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.
Thirty-Seven Practices of Dhyāna Sūtra, one fascicle (sometimes with the word pin), translated by An Shigao, Tripiṭaka master of Parthia under the Later Han.

Contemplation of the Body Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master under the Western Jin (supplemented and entered here).
(The Da Zhou Catalogue states that the four sūtras including the Nine Untimely Deaths Sūtra come from the Saṃyuktāgama as variant translations, and that the Contemplation of the Body Sūtra is an extract. An examination finds none of them in the text; hence they are entered here.)
Anitya-sūtra, one fascicle (also titled Sangi-sūtra), translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
Sūtra on the Eight Inopportune and Opportune Moments, one fascicle, translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
Sūtra of the Inquiries of the Long-nailed Ascetic, one fascicle, translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
Avadāna-sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
Abridged Admonitions Sūtra, one fascicle, translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
(Some say that this Abridged Admonitions Sūtra comes from the nineteenth fascicle of the Mūlasarvāstivāda Vinaya Saṃghabhedavastu; this is an error. Although there are abridged admonitions in that text, the text and meaning are vastly different from this. As it is not an extract, it is entered here.)
Sūtra on Healing Hemorrhoids, one fascicle (also called Zhilou), translated by Yijing, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang (newly entered into the catalogue).
(This spell also occurs in the second fascicle of the Mūlasarvāstivāda Nidāna. Some have classified it as a retranslation, but we disagree. That text states: 'He addressed the bhikṣus: "This Sūtra on Hemorrhoids was once spoken by me elsewhere."' The occasion was distinct and the location was also different. This is a repeated preaching, not a retranslation.)
The above thirty works, thirty fascicles, are in the same case.
