Not having yet been entered into the canon of all scriptures, it is now requested that they be entered into the catalogue. > Emperor Zhongzong, Emperor Ruizong, Emperor Xuanzong. > Genealogical Record of the Śākya Clan, 1 fascicle > The above was compiled by imperial order during the Kaiyuan era by the śramaṇa Yixing, posthumously titled Chan Master Dahui, and has already been included in the histories. It has four items in total: first, maintaining the stūpas and monasteries; second, the purport of expounding the Dharma; third, seated meditation and practice-realisation; fourth, the three robes of Dharma clothing. The method of the fast is appended therein. However, it has not yet been entered into the canon of all scriptures; it is now requested that it be entered into the catalogue. > Record of Conduct of the Late Tripiṭaka Master Vajrabodhi, 1 fascicle > The above was recorded out of reverence for his teacher, the Tripiṭaka master, by Lü Xiang, abhiṣeka disciple, Grand Master for Forthright Discussion, Acting Secretariat Drafter, Attendant to the Crown Prince and Princes for Literary Composition, and Academician of the Academy of Scholarly Worthies. It is now requested that it be entered into the catalogue. > Stūpa Inscription with Preface for Tripiṭaka Master Vajrabodhi of Great Guangfu Temple in the Eastern Capital > The above was composed and calligraphed by Hunlunweng, up to his posthumous conferral by the previous court of the title of Specially Advanced with the Tribute of the Three Authorities and the posthumous title of Tripiṭaka Master of Greatly Propagating the Teaching, as is expounded in detail in the preceding fascicle and in the later personal collection of Tripiṭaka Master Daguangzhi. > The above seven works, totaling 10 fascicles, together form the first case. > Biography of the Great Dharma Master Śākya Lishe of Anguo Temple of the Great Tang, 10 fascicles > The above was compiled by Zhao Kexun, courtesy name Zhuan, Administrative Assistant of the Left Gate Guard Command. It is requested that it be entered into the catalogue. The above one work in 10 fascicles forms the second case. > Collection of Edicts and Decrees of the Jingyun, Xiantian, Kaiyuan, and Tianbao Eras, 3 fascicles (stele inscriptions, memorials, and petitions appended) > The above was carefully compiled by the śramaṇa Yuanzhao in chronological order. > Collection of Decrees, Inscriptions, and Memorials of Emperor Suzong, 1 fascicle > Collection of Decrees, Inscriptions, and Memorials of Emperor Daizong, 1 fascicle > Collection of Inscriptions and Memorials of the Posthumously Conferred Minister of Works, the Great Eloquent and Correct, Guangzhi Amoghavajra Tripiṭaka, 7 fascicles > The above four works, totaling 12 fascicles, together form the third case. > Collection of Stūpa Inscriptions and Memorials on the Rebuilding of the Stūpa of the Late Chan Master Xinxing, an Eminent Monk Propagating the Dharma under the Sui, by the Great Tang, 5 fascicles > Collection of Chengru, Scripture Translator, Platform-Presiding Virtuous One, and Sthavira of Both Ximing and Anguo Temples, 3 fascicles > The above five works in 17 fascicles are all profound in their meaning of propagating and protecting the Buddha-dharma. The events arose in a single age, yet their benefit spans eternal generations: whether recording memorials presented upward or issuing imperial decrees downward, rulers were sagacious and ministers loyal, upholding and maintaining the semblance teachings. Yuanzhao, heedless of his own mediocre shallowness, lightly recounts these splendid exemplars, carefully setting them forth in order of years, months, days, and dynasties. Collection of Imperial Decrees and Memorials on the Current Emperor's Commissioning the Joint Compilation of the Commentary on the Four-Part Vinaya, 1 fascicle. > Continuation of the Illustrated Record of Past and Present Scripture Translations by Tripiṭaka Master Prajñā, 2 fascicles > The above four works, totaling 11 fascicles, together form the fourth case. > Sounds and Meanings of the Mahāyāna Sūtra of the Guiding Principle of the Six Pāramitās, 2 fascicles > Original Record of the Eras of Survival and Demise of the Dharma Kings of the Three Teachings, 3 fascicles (upper fascicle on Buddhism, middle fascicle on Daoism, lower fascicle on Confucianism; alternatively divided into five) > Collection of the Scripture-Translating Virtuous One, Hanlin Academician-in-Waiting, Śramaṇa Liyan of Guangzhai Temple, 1 fascicle > Collection of the Scripture-Translating Virtuous One, Sthavira of Ximing Temple, Recipient of the Purple Robe, Śramaṇa Liangxiu, 2 fascicles > The above four works, totaling 9 fascicles, together form the fifth case. > Sixty Songs of Praise and Daoist Chants to the Sangha Jewel, 1 fascicle > The above was composed by Dou Ang, courtesy name Gaoqing, of the Lu commandery, Grand Master of Closing Court, Acting Supervisor of the Crown Prince's Household, Recipient of the Purple Robe and Gold Fish Bag, retired. The text comes from fascicle 21 of the Middle Collection. In his spare time after retiring from court, he came to visit the monk's quarters. Being fellow countrymen with Vinaya Master Chaoji of Da'anguo Temple, he showed him these writings, and also inscribed praises for the cloister to show to the future. > Revised Original Record of Śākyamuni Buddha, the Dharma King, 1 fascicle > Record of the Great Sage Śākyamuni Buddha Manifesting the Eight Aspects of the Body to Benefit Gods and Humans and Attaining True Awakening, 1 fascicle > Record of Determining the Fangdeng Bodhimaṇḍa for Śrāmaṇeras Wishing to Receive Full Ordination, Repenting to Eliminate Sins, and Discerning Auspicious Signs, 1 fascicle > Record of the Translation Eras and Transmission Lineage of the Five Vinaya Divisions of the Śākya Clan, 1 fascicle > On the nineteenth day of the fourth month past, on the anniversary of the Emperor's descent and birth, on the eastern side of the inner chapel, and on the previous day during leisure after withdrawing from meals, under the western gallery of Linde Hall, there were eleven persons, including the Chan-practicing Virtuous One Daocheng of Zhangjing Temple, Dahui of Zhuangyan Temple, Cangshan of Zongchi Temple, and Debate-Assembly Virtuous Ones of the three teachings such as Tanyan, who attended upon the Crown Prince. After the meaning of the mind-ground Dharma-gate was concluded, this petty monk Yuanzhao in person received an instruction asking about the Vinaya masters' determination of the Fangdeng śrāmaṇera precept characteristics, the length of the phrasing of the five Vinaya divisions, the karmavācanā for the merit-field kāṣāya Dharma robes, and the reasons thereof, commanding that this be compiled and presented. I submit: my intellectual capacity is dull and my studies are neglected; I have improperly mingled with the black-robed sangha for forty-two summers, sometimes presiding at the ordination platform to lecture on the Vinaya, sometimes composing commentaries and translating scriptures, yet I have by no means been able to master them or attain realization. I respectfully reflect that Your Highness, descended from Heaven and receiving the Buddha's entrustment, in the leisure of attending court, roams your mind in the Buddhist fold, inquiring into the propriety of the five Vinaya divisions, the determination of the Fangdeng precept characteristics, and the origins of conferring and upholding the karmavācanā teachings, wishing to prolong the life of the true Dharma, advance toward unsurpassed bodhi, exalt the wholesome causes of gods and humans, and realize unconditioned liberation. In careful accordance with the sūtras, vinayas, and treatises, I have compiled three fascicles, which I submit together with this petition to be heard on high. Lightly presuming against your awe-inspiring majesty, I humbly hope you will examine it in detail. Respectfully petitioned. On the twenty-third day of the eighth month of the ninth year of Zhenyuan, the platform-presiding, scripture-translating śramaṇa Yuanzhao of Ximing Temple respectfully petitions. > Record of the Newly Built Precious Stūpa for the Tooth of Our Root Teacher Śākyamuni Buddha at Dazhuangyan Temple, 3 fascicles > Record of the Stūpa for the True Body Relic of the Great Sage Śākyamuni Buddha at King Aśoka Temple of the Holy Dynasty, 3 fascicles > The above \[record describes how\] the Buddha's Dharmakāya is serene and ever-abiding, yet to transform the six destinies he taught the three bodies; within the Nirmāṇakāya he attained the Way through the eight aspects, manifesting complete quiescence with both whole body and divided body, guiding the four types of living beings and extensively raising benefits. I observe that the Buddha's tooth at Dazhuangyan Temple and the true body relic at King Aśoka Temple are the whole form and divided relics of the Great Sage Śākyamuni Buddha. More than a thousand years have passed, yet they are extraordinarily solid and lustrous. Clergy and laity reverently come and go to gaze upon and worship them, and the miraculous signs of their luminous transformations are difficult to describe fully. I respectfully reflect that Your Majesty, having received the Buddha's entrustment, broadly encourages the Buddhist fold, admiring and upholding the True Vehicle, and especially exalts the precious stūpas, whose lofty and magnificent structures outshine past and present. This petty monk, lacking talent, has carefully narrated their records, hoping to transmit these grand traces and hand down instructions for a thousand autumns. Fully recording the causes and origins, I have compiled three fascicles for each, together with two fascicles of Illustrated Records of Scripture Translations, all of which are now completed. I humbly wish that this will aid the Sagely Longevity on high with eternal, boundless blessings, that the four seas remain tranquil, and that the myriad realms share a single virtue. I respectfully submit them with this memorial to be heard, lightly presuming against Heavenly majesty and humbly awaiting the Sagely will. The śramaṇa Yuanzhao, with sincere fear and trembling, respectfully presents this. On the nineteenth day of the fourth month of the tenth year of Zhenyuan, the scripture-translating, platform-presiding śramaṇa Yuanzhao of Ximing Temple presents this memorial. > The above seven works in 11 fascicles together form the sixth case. > Collection of Stele Inscriptions for Virtuous Ones of the Three Learnings Who Transmitted the Dharma in the Tang Dynasty, 15 fascicles > Collection of Imperial Decrees and Buddhist Memorials of the Jianzhong, Xingyuan, and Zhenyuan Eras, 2 fascicles > Imperial Poems Inscribed at Zhangjing Temple and Collection of Matching Poems Presented by the Crown Prince and All Officials, 3 fascicles > Zhenyuan Continuation of the Kaiyuan Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings of the Great Tang, 3 fascicles (upper fascicle on scripture translation, middle fascicle on collections of commentaries and records, lower fascicle on the catalogue of works entering the canon) > The above four works, totaling 23 fascicles, are divided into the seventh and eighth cases. > The above newly compiled works of the Zhenyuan era total twenty-nine works, consisting of 86 fascicles excluding the catalogue. Whether they be decrees of past reigns or the abundant grace of the present Emperor, all encourage the Buddhist fold to cultivate pure conduct, bringing blessings and benefit to the country and family and extending universally to sentient beings. I submit: in the eighteenth year of Kaiyuan, the gengwu year, the śramaṇa Zhisheng compiled the Catalogue of Buddhist Teachings; up to the present jiaxu year, sixty-five years have elapsed. During this interval, the scriptures translated by the tripiṭaka masters have not been kept in the canon, and I fear that as the years recede into the distance, people will suspect them of being apocryphal scriptures. Furthermore, in the seventh year of Dali, the late Sage permitted their entry into the catalogue, and the text of the decree was proclaimed and circulated as shown above. Yuanzhao has always lacked artistic skills; heedless of his foolish clumsiness, he has diligently recorded what he has heard and seen, compiling them into a catalogue of three fascicles. I humbly pray that the sagely reign be long-lasting and that blessings extend to ten thousand generations; that the civil and military officials be utterly filial and loyal; that the Three Jewels prosper forever; and that distant realms be pacified and near realms reverent. If the sagely grace permits, I humbly beg that it be proclaimed and circulated. Lightly presuming against Heavenly majesty, with profound trembling, I respectfully present this. > On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month of the tenth year of Zhenyuan, the scripture-translating, platform-presiding śramaṇa Yuanzhao of Ximing Temple presents this memorial. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156.2.7) - [Next: 2.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156.2.9) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156~en-mt.2.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156.2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2156.2.8) · Pramāṇa
