fascicles. This is merely a difference between Sanskrit and Jin phonetic transcription, and they should not be entered twice. "Ashuda" is the Sanskrit term, while "Wuyoushi" is the Jin language. The bibliographers were mistaken to record both sūtras.)
*Ruhuan sanmei jing* (Sūtra on the Like-an-Illusion Samādhi), two fascicles (or one fascicle), translated by the Parthian Tripiṭaka master An Shigao under the Later Han (First translation).

The above four sūtras are different translations of the same text as the thirty-sixth assembly, "Devaputra Susthitamati." In total there were seven translations; three are extant and four are lost.
*Huishang pusa wen da shanquan jing* (Sūtra of the Questions of Bodhisattva Jñānottara on the Great Skillful Means), two fascicles (also without the word "Bodhisattva", or in one fascicle), translated by the śramaṇa Yan Fotiao of Linhuai under the Later Han (First translation).

*Huishang pusa wen da shanquan jing* (Sūtra of the Questions of Bodhisattva Jñānottara on the Great Skillful Means), two fascicles (also titled *Huishang pusa jing*; simply titled *Da shanquan jing*; or titled *Dacheng fangbian jing*), translated by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka master Saṅghabhadra under the Northern Liang (Fifth translation).
The above three sūtras are different translations of the same text as the thirty-eighth assembly, "Mahāyāna Skillful Means." In total there were five translations; two are extant and three are lost.
*Mile suowen benyuan jing* (Sūtra on the Past Vows Asked by Maitreya), one fascicle, translated by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka master Jñānagupta under the Eastern Jin (Second translation).

The above sūtra is a different translation of the same text as the forty-seventh assembly, "Bodhisattva Ratnacūḍa." This is the "Ratnacūḍa Chapter" of the *Mahāsaṃnipāta*. Excluding the root sūtra, there were two translations in total; one is extant and one is lost.

The above sūtra is a different translation of the same text as the forty-eighth assembly, "Lady Śrīmālā." In total there were three translations; two are extant and one is lost.
*Baoji jing* (Ratnakūṭa Sūtra), three fascicles, translated by the Tripiṭaka master and meditation master Jñānayaśas under the Northern Zhou of the Yuwen clan.
Although the above sūtra is titled *Baoji*, since there is no text available to collate, it is unknown which assembly it shares the same original with; it is noted here at the end.
From the *Wuliangshou jing* downward, there are thirty works in fifty-four fascicles: lost texts from the Ratnakūṭa section.
*Dafangdeng daji jing* (Mahāvaipulya Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra), twenty-seven fascicles, translated by the Yuezhi Tripiṭaka master Lokakṣema under the Later Han (First translation).
*Dafangdeng daji jing* (Mahāvaipulya Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra), thirty fascicles (sometimes with the word "new", or in twenty-four fascicles), translated by the Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin (Second translation).
The above two sūtras are different translations of the same text. In total there were three translations; one text is preserved in the canon and two are lost.
*Xukongzang pusa jing* (Ākāśagarbha Bodhisattva Sūtra), one fascicle, translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Guṇabhadra under the Liu Song (Third translation).
The above sūtra had four translations in total; three are extant and one is lost.
*Banzhou sanmei jing* (Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra), two fascicles (sometimes with the word "Great" added, or in one fascicle), translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Zhu Foshuo under the Later Han (Second translation).
*Banzhou sanmei jing* (Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra), one fascicle (a retranslation of the last ten chapters; Dao'an's catalogue lists one in one fascicle, not three fascicles), translated by the Yuezhi Tripiṭaka master Lokakṣema under the Later Han (From Jingtai's catalogue; third translation).
*Banzhou sanmei nianfo zhang jing* (Sūtra of the Pratyutpanna Samādhi Chapter on Recollection of the Buddha), one fascicle (an independent translation of the "Practice Chapter"), an anonymous translation of the Later Han dynasty (Fourth translation).
*Banzhou sanmei jing* (Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra), two fascicles (Master Dao'an's catalogue calls it a further retranslation of the *Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra*), translated by the Western Jin Tripiṭaka master Dharmarakṣa (Sixth translation).
The above four sūtras are different translations of the same text. In total there were seven translations; three are extant and four are lost (four were complete versions and three were extracted translations).
*Achamo pusa jing* (Akṣayamati Bodhisattva Sūtra), four fascicles, translated by the Indian śramaṇa Vighna under the Wu (First translation).
*Achamo pusa jing* (Akṣayamati Bodhisattva Sūtra), four fascicles, translated by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian under the Wu (Second translation).
*Wujinyi jing* (Akṣayamati Sūtra), ten fascicles, translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Zhu Fajuan under the Liu Song (Fifth translation).
The above three sūtras are different translations of the same text. In total there were five translations; two texts are preserved in the canon and three are lost. (Furthermore, in catalogues like Fei Changfang's, under Dharmarakṣa's translations there is also a *Wujinyi jing* in four fascicles. Given that Dharmarakṣa had already produced the *Achamo jing*, he should not have produced the *Wujinyi* again. The title of the *Achamo jing* states: "In the Jin language, Akṣayamati." The cataloguer's note says: "or in four fascicles." This is merely a difference between the Sanskrit and Jin names; in reality it was one single sūtra, yet the catalogues preserve both texts, which is a gross error.)
*Xiao achamo jing* (Lesser Akṣayamati Sūtra), two fascicles, translated by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian under the Wu.
Since this single sūtra adds the word "Lesser", it should not be the same text as the preceding sūtras.
*Fangdeng zhu xukongzang jing* (Vaipulya Master Ākāśagarbha Sūtra), eight fascicles (also called *Questions of Ākāśagarbha*, or in five fascicles), translated by the śramaṇa Shi Shengjian under the Qifu Qin.
The above sūtra is an alternate translation of the Ākāśagarbha chapter of the *Mahāsaṃnipāta*. Even if it were present in the canon, it would be an extracted text. The Ākāśagarbha chapter was translated by Dharmakṣema, not a separate translation (or perhaps this sūtra was translated by Dharmakṣema, and was not produced by Shengjian).
*Dingyi tianzi suowen jing* (Sūtra of the Questions of Devaputra Samāhitamati), five fascicles (extracted from the *Mahāsaṃnipāta*; now suspected to be the same text as the *Susthitamati Sūtra*), translated by the Tripiṭaka master and meditation master Jñānayaśas under the Northern Zhou of the Yuwen clan.
From the *Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra* downward, there are thirteen works in ninety-seven fascicles: lost texts from the Mahāsaṃnipāta section.
*Ru rulai zhi busiyiyi jing* (Sūtra on Entering the Inconceivable Wisdom of the Tathāgata), three fascicles, translated by the Tripiṭaka master and meditation master Jñānayaśas under the Northern Zhou of the Yuwen clan (Appears in the *Fanyi tu*; second translation).
The above sūtra had four translations in total; three are extant and one is lost.
*Pusa shidi jing* (Bodhisattva Daśabhūmika Sūtra), one fascicle (also called *Dafangguang jing* or simply *Shidi jing*), translated by the Tripiṭaka master Dharmarakṣa under the Western Jin (First translation).
*Dafangguang pusa shidi jing* (Mahāvaipulya Bodhisattva Daśabhūmika Sūtra), one fascicle, translated by the pure-faith layman Nie Daozhen under the Western Jin (Second translation).
*Shidi jing* (Daśabhūmika Sūtra), one fascicle, translated by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka master Jñānagupta under the Eastern Jin (Third translation).
The above three sūtras are different translations of the same text. In total there were five translations; two are extant and three are lost.
*Dafangguang busheng bumie jing* (Mahāvaipulya Sūtra of Non-Arising and Non-Cessation), one fascicle, translated by the Khotanese Tripiṭaka master Śikṣānanda under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang (Newly entered into the catalogue; sole translation).
*Dafangguang rulai nan siyiyi jingjie jing* (Mahāvaipulya Sūtra on the Inconceivable Realm of the Tathāgata), one fascicle, translated by the Khotanese Tripiṭaka master Śikṣānanda under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang (Newly entered into the catalogue; sole translation).
*Fozang fangdeng jing* (Buddha-Treasury Vaipulya Sūtra), one fascicle (also titled *Wen mingxian jing*), translated by the śramaṇa Shi Daoyan under the Liu Song.
Regarding the above sūtra, the Sui dynasty śramaṇa Fajing's catalogue states: it is the "Clarifying
