20.9

The Bodhisattva Tripiṭaka within the Catalogue of Extant Translations with Extant Texts, Part 1 of 1

20.10

The Bodhisattva Piṭaka is the teaching expounded by the Mahāyāna. In general terms of the Lord of the Teaching, the dharmakāya is eternally abiding, without cessation and without arising. As for the principle it expounds, the vaipulya thusness transcends name and is devoid of marks. In general, there are the differences of the three piṭakas; in detail, there are twelve sections, beginning with generating the aspiration [for awakening] and culminating in the ten grounds. The explanations of the three knowledges and eight liberations, and the designations of the six perfections and four means of embracing—classifications such as these are called this Piṭaka. From the dingmao year of Emperor Ming of the Han down to the gengchen year of our Zhenyuan era, those currently circulating total 808 works, combining to 2,988 fascicles in 267 wrappers. The general and specific regulations of the Mahāyāna Dharma Piṭaka are fully set forth below.

20.11

The Bodhisattva Sūtra Piṭaka (682 works in 2,400 fascicles), in 222 wrappers.

20.12

The Bodhisattva Vinaya Piṭaka (37 works in 55 fascicles), in 5 wrappers.

20.13

The Bodhisattva Abhidharma Piṭaka (99 works in 520 fascicles), in 50 wrappers.

20.14

Mahāyāna Sūtras: Combined Repeated and Single Translations (554 works in 2,090 fascicles), in 288 wrappers.

20.15

(Upon consulting the various older catalogues, all place single translations first. Now, in this catalogue, repeated translations are placed at the head. Why is this so? Because for the various sūtras with repeated translations, their text and meaning are fully complete and their terminology and doctrinal marks are precisely determined; hence they are placed at the beginning. Furthermore, in older catalogues they were simply called 'repeated translations'. The reason it has now been changed to 'combined repeated and single translations' is that nine assemblies of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā-sūtra are single translations, while seven assemblies are repeated translations; twenty assemblies of the Mahāratnakūṭa-sūtra are single translations, while twenty-nine assemblies are repeated translations. Simply saying 'repeated translations' does not comprehensively encompass the meaning; the remaining sūtras are treated likewise. Therefore, they are called 'combined repeated and single translations'. Moreover, ancient translations lacked the translator's era, year, and month at the head of the sūtra; as time grew distant, investigation could not discover them. The phrase 'lost translator' truly originates from this. Now, having consulted the various older catalogues and examined and determined the true and false, the eras and translators are fully noted at the heads of the sūtras. Those whose translators are lost are recorded within the catalogue. The bequeathed teachings of the Śākya Sage will thus endure for sixty thousand long years).

20.16

Prajñā Section (New and old translations as well as offshoot sūtras are all compiled here)

20.17

In total, 21 works (736 fascicles in 73 wrappers).

20.18

(The reason the Prajñā sūtras are established first is that [wisdom] is the mother of all Buddhas. In the older catalogues, the arrangement had no order. Now, in this catalogue, the Mahāyāna and Hīnayāna sūtras are all arranged in sequence according to their class and category: the Hīnayāna vinayas are arranged fully according to fundamental and derivative traditions; the Mahāyāna treatises place those that comment on an extant sūtra first and arrange those that collect and interpret meanings after them; the Hīnayāna treatises are arranged according to the sequence of their schools, with the Jñānaprasthāna first, the six Pādas following it, and the Vibhāṣās and other offshoots compiled at the end; the anthologies and biographies of sages and saints are divided into internal and external, since the Great Xia and the Divine Land differ as East and West. The aim is to make the categories distinct so that readers may easily understand them).

20.19

Mahāprajñāpāramitā-sūtra, 600 fascicles, in 60 cases.
Translated by Xuanzang, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang, at Yuhua Palace Monastery; taken from the Fanjing tu.
The Indic text of this sūtra contains a total of 200,000 verses, preached in four locations over sixteen assemblies. Translated into the Tang language, it forms 600 fascicles. The single and duplicate translations are listed in detail to the left:
First Assembly, preached at Vulture Peak, Rājagṛha.
The newly translated single text: 132,600 verses in the Indic text; translated into Tang, it forms 400 fascicles in 79 chapters, from fascicle 1 through fascicle 400.
Second (Repeated) Assembly, preached at Vulture Peak, Rājagṛha; fourth translation.
The newly translated duplicate text: 25,000 verses in the Indic text; translated into Tang, it forms 78 fascicles in 85 chapters. It is a different translation of the same text as the old Pañcaviṃśati (Dapin), Fangguang, and Guangzan Prajñā sūtras. It runs from fascicle 401 through fascicle 478. Compared to the older sūtras, it lacks chapters such as Sadāprarudita; the rest of the meaning is largely identical.
Third (Repeated) Assembly, preached at Vulture Peak, Rājagṛha.
The newly translated single text: 18,000 verses in the Indic text; translated into 59 fascicles in 31 chapters, from fascicle 479 through fascicle 537.

It is a different translation of the same text as the old Daoxing, Xiaopin, Mingdu, and Chang'an-pin. It runs from fascicle 538 through fascicle 555. Compared to the older sūtras, it also lacks chapters such as Sadāprarudita; the rest of the meaning is not different.
Fifth (Repeated) Assembly, preached at Vulture Peak, Rājagṛha.
The newly translated single text: 4,000 verses in the Indic text; translated into 10 fascicles in 24 chapters, from fascicle 556 through fascicle 565.

Seventh Assembly, Mañjuśrī Section, preached in Anāthapiṇḍada's Park, Śrāvastī; second translation.
The newly translated duplicate text: 800 verses in the Indic text; translated into 2 fascicles with no chapters. It is a different translation of the same text as the two older translations of the Mañjuśrī Prajñā. It corresponds to fascicles 574 and 575.
Eighth (Repeated) Assembly, Nāgaśrī Section, preached in Anāthapiṇḍada's Park, Śrāvastī; third translation.
The newly translated duplicate text: 400 verses in the Indic text; translated into 1 fascicle with no chapters. It is a different translation of the same text as the older Rushou pusa fenwei jing and others. It corresponds to fascicle 576.
Ninth (Repeated) Assembly, Vajracchedikā Section, preached in Anāthapiṇḍada's Park, Śrāvastī; fourth translation.
The newly translated duplicate text: 300 verses in the Indic text; translated into 1 fascicle with no chapters. It is a different translation of the same text as the four new and old translations of the Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā. It corresponds to fascicle 577.
Tenth Assembly, Prajñānaya Section, preached in the palace of the King of the Paranirmitavaśavartin Heaven; first translation.
The newly translated duplicate text: 300 verses in the Indic text; translated into 1 fascicle with no chapters. It is a different translation of the same text as the later translation, the Shixiang bore. It corresponds to fascicle 578.
Eleventh (Repeated) Assembly, Dānapāramitā Section, preached in Anāthapiṇḍada's Park, Śrāvastī.
The newly translated single text: 2,000 verses in the Indic text; translated into 5 fascicles with no chapters, from fascicle 579 through fascicle 583.

The newly translated single text: 800 verses in the Indic text; translated into 2 fascicles with no chapters. It corresponds to fascicles 591 and 592.
Sixteenth Assembly, Prajñāpāramitā Section, preached beside the White Heron Pool in the Bamboo Grove at Rājagṛha.
The newly translated single text: 2,500 verses in the Indic text; translated into 8 fascicles with no chapters, from fascicle 593 through fascicle 600.
Fangguang bore boluomi jing, 30 fascicles (or 20 fascicles), in 3 cases.
Translated by the Western Jin Tripiṭaka master Mokṣala together with Zhu Shulan; first translation.
Mohe bore boluomi jing, 40 fascicles (also called Dapin bore jing; or 30 fascicles), in 4 cases.
Translated by the Later Qin Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva together with Sengrui and others; third translation.
Guangzan bore boluomi jing, 15 fascicles (or 10 fascicles).
Translated by the Western Jin Tripiṭaka master Dharmarakṣa; first translation.
The three sūtras above are different translations of the same text as the Second Assembly of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā. When comparing the Guangzan bore with the new sūtra, it is roughly one third, stopping at the "Scattering Flowers" chapter; the subsequent text is entirely lacking. Furthermore, according to the Later Qin monk Sengrui's preface to the Xiaopin: "There are four kinds of primary texts for this sūtra, which were preached by the Buddha at different times in varying degrees of elaboration or brevity. The most extensive is said to have 100,000 verses, and the shortest 600 verses. This Dapin is indeed the middle-length text of India." Based on its being the middle text, we know it shares the same Indic original with the Second Assembly of the Great Sūtra. (Bodhisattva Nāgārjuna composed the Zhidu lun to explain the Dapin sūtra).
Mohe bore boluomi chao jing, 5 fascicles (also called Subhūti Chapter, or Chang'an Chapter).
Translated by the Later Qin Indian śramaṇa Dharmapriya together with Zhu Fonian; sixth translation.
Regarding this single sūtra, the two catalogues of Changfang and Neidian state that it is an excerpt from a foreign sūtra; upon investigation, this is not certain. According to its textual substance, it is actually a different translation of the same text as the Xiaopin and Daoxing sūtras. Thus the initial title reads: "Mohe bore boluomi jing, Daoxing Chapter, Part 1." However, the text is incomplete by more than two thirds, lacking ten chapters at the end when compared to the Daoxing.
Vajraśekhara-yoga-prajñānaya-sūtra, 1 fascicle (the title within the sūtra reads: Sūtra of the Mahāsukha Vajra Amoghasamaya Prajñāpāramitānaya-parivarta; translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue).
Commentary on the Prajñānaya-sūtra, 1 fascicle (the title within the sūtra reads: Commentary on the Prajñāpāramitānaya of the Mahāsukhavajrāmoghasamaya-sūtra; translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra).
(Newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue)
The above 4 sūtras, 22 fascicles, in 2 cases.
Daoxing bore boluomi jing, 10 fascicles (also called Bore daoxing; or 8 fascicles).
Translated by the Later Han Yuezhi Tripiṭaka master Lokakṣema; first translation.
Xiaopin bore boluomi jing, 10 fascicles (or 7 fascicles, or 8 fascicles), in 1 case.
Translated by the Later Qin Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva; seventh translation.
Da mingdu wuji jing, 4 fascicles (also simply called Da mingdu jing; or 6 fascicles).
Translated by the Wu Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian; second translation.
The four sūtras above are different translations of the same text as the Fourth Assembly of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā.
(As for the Xin Daoxing jing translated by the Western Jin Tripiṭaka master Dharmarakṣa, there is only the title but no text. Even if found in the various canons, its text is identical to the Xiaopin, differing only in title, so it is not listed again; of the eight translations through time, five are extant and three are lost).
Suvikrāntavikrāmi-paripṛcchā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Shengtianwang bore boluomi jing), 7 fascicles.
Translated by Upasena, Prince of the Kingdom of Ujjayinī, under the Chen; first translation.
The one sūtra above is a different translation of the same text as the Sixth Assembly of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā.
The above two sūtras, 11 fascicles, in the same case.
Mañjuśrī-parivarta-mahāprajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Wenshushili suoshuo mohe bore boluomi jing), 2 fascicles (or 1 fascicle; 21 sheets).
Translated by the Liang Tripiṭaka master Mandrasena from Funan; first translation.
This one sūtra is also called Wenshu bore boluomi jing. Its opening text does not have the ten layers of light, and its concluding text contains the passage on the one-practice samādhi (ekavyūha-samādhi) with the words "Mañjuśrī Kumārabhūta." It is also compiled into the Ratnakūṭa as the 46th Assembly. Because its name is identical to the following sūtra, fearing confusion, it is re-entered here.
Mañjuśrī-parivarta-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Wenshushili suoshuo bore boluomi jing), 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Liang Tripiṭaka master Saṅghabhara from Funan; recovered supplement; second translation; 20 sheets.
In this one sūtra, the opening text has the passage on the ten lights, but lacks the words on the one-practice samādhi, having instead "Mañjuśrī the Dharma Prince." The opening praise of the bodhisattva's virtues and enumeration of the bodhisattvas' names is slightly more extensive here. Moreover, these two sūtras are alternately broader and briefer.
The two sūtras above are different translations of the same text as the Seventh Assembly, Mañjuśrī Section, of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā.
Rushou pusa wushang qingjing fenwei jing, 2 fascicles (also called Jueliao zhufa ruhuanhua sanmei jing).
Translated in Nanhai Commandery by the Song śramaṇa Master Xiang; second translation.
This one sūtra is a different translation of the same text as the Eighth Assembly, Nāgaśrī Section, of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā. Comparing the new and old, the old sūtra is slightly more extensive. (Of three translations through time, two are extant and one is lost).
Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra, 1 fascicle; [preached at] Śrāvastī.
Translated by the Later Qin Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva; first translation.
Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra, 1 fascicle; [starts with] "Bhagavān".
Translated by the Northern Wei Indian Tripiṭaka master Bodhiruci; second translation.
Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra, 1 fascicle; [preached in] Jeta's Grove.
Translated by the Chen Indian Tripiṭaka master Paramārtha; third translation.
Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Nengduan jingang bore boluomi duo jing), 1 fascicle; [preached in] Śrāvastī.
Translated by the Great Tang Tripiṭaka master Xuanzang; taken from the Neidian lu; fourth translation.
Vajracchedikā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Nengduan jingang bore boluomi duo jing), 1 fascicle; [preached in] City of Renown (Śrāvastī).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka master Yijing during the reign of the Great Tang Heavenly Empress; newly entered into the catalogue; fifth translation.
The five sūtras above are different translations of the same text. Its fourth text, the Nengduan bore, was translated by the śramaṇa Xuanzang while accompanying the imperial entourage at the Hongfa Terrace of Yuhua Palace in the 22nd year of Zhenguan. Later, in the 5th year of Xianqing, when translating the Mahāprajñāpāramitā at Yuhua Monastery, this corresponded to the Ninth, the Vajracchedikā Section; the present text was incorporated directly without being retranslated. According to the precedent of the scriptures, texts that are integrated into large collections are treated as offshoot extracts and should not be recorded again in this catalogue; however, because its title is identical to that translated by the śramaṇa Yijing, fearing confusion, it is re-entered here. (Three masters composed treatises together explaining this sūtra).
Satyalakṣaṇa-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Shixiang bore boluomi jing), 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka master Bodhiruci during the reign of the Great Tang Heavenly Empress; taken from the Dazhou lu; second translation.
This one sūtra is a different translation of the same text as the Tenth Assembly, Prajñānaya Section, of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā. However, in the Western Regions there are two Indic texts, one extensive and one brief; thus, while the purport of the Shixiang and Liqu are the same, they differ in size.
The above 9 sūtras, 11 fascicles, in the same case.
Kāruṇikarājā-prajñāpāramitā-sūtra (Renwang huguo bore boluomi jing), 2 fascicles (or 1 fascicle).
Translated by the Later Qin Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva; second translation.
Of three translations, two are lost.
Newly Translated Renwang jing, 2 fascicles (internal title: Renwang huguo bore boluomi duo jing, with imperial preface; translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue).
Commentary on the Kāruṇikarājā-prajñā Dhāraṇī (Renwang bore tuoluoni shi), 1 fascicle.
Translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
Recitation Ritual Sūtra of the Kāruṇikarājā-prajñā (Renwang bore niansongfa jing), 1 fascicle.
Translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
Kāruṇikarājā Recitation Kalpa (Renwang niansong yigui), 1 fascicle (the title within the sūtra reads: Renwang huguo bore boluomi duo jing tuoluoni niansong yigui).
Translated under imperial order by Amoghavajra, Master of Vast Wisdom of Daxingshan Monastery; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
Mahāprajñāpāramitā Mahāvidyā-mantra Sūtra (Mohe bore boluomi damingzhou jing), 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Later Qin Tripiṭaka master Kumārajīva; first translation; recovered supplement.
Prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya-sūtra, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Great Tang Tripiṭaka master Xuanzang; taken from the Neidian lu; second translation.
The two sūtras above are different translations of the same text. (Of three translations through time, two are extant and one is lost. The Prajñāhṛdaya was recorded in the old catalogue as a single translation, but newly verified as a duplicate translation).
(Although the textual meaning of the three sūtras including the Renwang bore is connected with the large collection, their complete texts do not appear in the large collection; they are subsumed under offshoot traditions and were not extracted from it).
Samantamukhajñānagarbha-prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya-sūtra (Pubian zhizang bore boluomi duo xinjing), 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa Dharmacandra of Eastern India; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
Newly Translated Prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya-sūtra, 1 fascicle.
Translated under imperial order by the purple-robe awarded Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa Prajñā of Kashmīr; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
The two sūtras above are different translations of the same text.
Kalpa for the Practice and Recitation of the Bodhisattva Contemplation in Cultivating the Prajñāpāramitā (Xiuxi bore boluomi pusa guanxing niansong yigui), 1 fascicle.
Translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra; newly entered in the Zhenyuan Catalogue.
Exposition of the Seventeen Deities of the Great Maṇḍala, 1 fascicle (the title within the sūtra reads: Prajñāpāramitānaya-sūtra: Exposition of the Meaning of the Great Maṇḍala of the Seventeen Deities Including the Great Joy Amoghasamaya True Vajrabodhisattva).
Translated under imperial order by the Tripiṭaka Śramaṇa of Daxingshan Monastery, Master of Vast Wisdom, Amoghavajra.
The above 11 sūtras, 13 fascicles, in the same case.
Sūtra of the Dhāraṇī of Protecting the Sovereign of the Realm, 1 work in 10 fascicles, in 1 case.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka master Prajñā of Kashmīr; entered into the Zhenyuan Catalogue in accordance with imperial decree.

20.20

Ratnakūṭa Section

20.21

(However, duplicate translations across the assemblies are arranged in sequence.) A total of 82 works (Because these are assembled into one from multiple works, the original number is preserved in the upper register), in 169 fascicles, 17 cases.

20.22.1

Mahāratnakūṭa Section: 120 fascicles, 12 cases.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of South India under the Great Tang; newly compiled into the catalogue.
The above sūtra combines new and old, duplicate and single translations, making 49 assemblies united into one corpus. (Between new and old there are 20 assemblies of single translations, and between new and old 29 assemblies of duplicate translations. Among these, 26 assemblies are newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang, and 23 assemblies are ancient translations and earlier Tang translations collated against the Indic text by Bodhiruci and, matching it, incorporated into the assembly sequence. They are fully listed below.)

Assembly 1: The Assembly of the Three Moral Codes, 3 fascicles.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang; second translation.
The above new translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the old Dafangguang sanjie jing. Fascicles 1 through 3.

Assembly 2: The Assembly of Boundless Adornment, 4 fascicles.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang.
The above new translation is a single version. Fascicles 4 through 7.

The above old translation is a single version. Fascicles 8 through 14.

Assembly 4: The Assembly of the Devaputra of the Śuddhāvāsa, 2 fascicles.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Dharmarakṣa of the Western Jin; recorded in Fashang's catalogue; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above old translation was originally a single version titled Pusa shuomeng jing, now newly renamed Assembly of the Devaputra of the Śuddhāvāsa. Fascicles 15 and 16. (Upon close examination of the phrasing, it is somewhat dissimilar to Dharmarakṣa's sūtras. Catalogues such as Changfang's all state that the translator's name was lost; Fashang's catalogue states that it was produced by Dharmarakṣa. For now, it is recorded according to Fashang's catalogue.)

Assembly 5: The Assembly of Amitāyus Tathāgata, 2 fascicles.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang.
The above new translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the old Wuliang qingjing pingdengjue jing, Amituo jing, Wuliangshou jing, etc. [Fascicles 17 and] 18.

Assembly 6: The Assembly of Akṣobhya Tathāgata, 2 fascicles.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang; second translation.

Assembly 7: The Assembly of the Armor-clad Adornment, 5 fascicles.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang.
The above new translation is a single version. Fascicles 21 through 25.

Assembly 8: The Assembly of the Non-differentiation of the Dharmadhātu's Nature, 2 fascicles.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Mandrasena of the Liang; second translation; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above old translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the Fajie tixing jing translated by Kumārajīva of the Yao Qin. Fascicles 26 and 27. (The Qin translation.)

Assembly 9: The Assembly of the Ten Dharmas of the Mahāyāna, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Buddhasānta of the Northern Wei; second translation; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above old translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the Dacheng shifa jing translated by Saṃghabhara (Zhongkai) of the Liang (the one that opens with "Bhagavat"). Fascicle 28. (Attributing this version to Saṅghapāla is an error.)

Assembly 10: The Assembly of Mañjuśrī's Universal Gate, 1 fascicle.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang; second translation.
The above new translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the old Pumenpin jing, etc. Fascicle 29.

Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang.

Assembly 12: The Assembly of the Bodhisattvapiṭaka, 20 fascicles.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Xuanzang of the Great Tang; recorded in the Neidian lu; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above earlier Tang translation is a single version. Fascicles 35 through 54. (As for this Assembly of the Bodhisattvapiṭaka, the Great Zhou Catalogue classifies it under duplicate translations, taking it as a different translation of the same text as the three-fascicle Pusa zang jing, which is a gross error. Although the titles are the same, their lengths are completely different; upon checking the text and meaning, they diverge even further. That three-fascicle Pusa zang is also incorporated into this collection: namely, it is the Assembly of Pūrṇa. It has now been emended from the old [listing] and definitively taken as a single translation.)

Assembly 13: The Assembly of the Buddha Explaining the Dwelling in the Womb to Ānanda, 1 fascicle.
Newly translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Bodhiruci of the Great Tang; second translation.
The above new translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the old Baotai jing. Fascicle 55.

Assembly 14: The Assembly of the Buddha Explaining Entry into the Womb, 3 fascicles.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Yijing of the Great Tang; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above earlier Tang translation is a single version. Fascicles 56 and 57. (This Assembly of Entry into the Womb was originally titled Fo wei Nantuo shuo chujia rutai jing, found in fascicles 11 and 12 of the Mūlasarvāstivāda Vinaya Kṣudrakavastu. The Tripiṭaka Master Yijing extracted it to circulate separately. Now Bodhiruci has collated it with the Indic text and, matching it, incorporated it into the assembly sequence. Since it was not re-translated, it is a single version. Furthermore, with regard to the story in the Zabaocang jing of Nanda being pressed by the Buddha into leaving household life, although the beginning is slightly similar, the subsequent text is completely different; it is improper to consider it a duplicate translation. By its text and doctrine, both this assembly and the preceding assembly properly belong to the Śrāvakapiṭaka; now, having been incorporated into the Ratnakūṭa, they are comprehensively subsumed under the Bodhisattvapiṭaka.)

Translated under the Heavenly Empress of the Great Tang by the Tripiṭaka Master Śikṣānanda of Khotan; third translation; collated, matched, and incorporated.

Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Narendrayaśas of the Northern Qi; collated, matched, and incorporated.

Assembly 17: The Assembly of Pūrṇa, 3 fascicles.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva of the Yao Qin; second translation; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above old translation is a duplicate version, originally titled Pusa zang jing or Dabeixin jing, being a different translation of the same text as the Pusa zang jing translated by Dharmarakṣa of the Western Jin. Fascicles 77 through 79. (The Jin translation is lost.)

Assembly 19: The Assembly of the Elder Ugra, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Saṅghavarman of the Cao Wei; third translation; collated, matched, and incorporated.
The above old translation is a duplicate version, being a different translation of the same text as the Fajing jing and Youjialuoyue wen pusaxing jing, etc. Fascicle 82. (Attributing this version to Kang Sengyi is an error.)

The above older translation of a single version forms the 93rd and 94th fascicles. (Regarding this Subāhu Assembly, the Great Zhou Catalogue states that it is a different translation of the same text as the *Chiren pusa jing* and the *Chishi jing Shanjian pin jing*; this is incorrect. When one now investigates its textual meaning, its purport is utterly different from the *Chiren jing* and the others. That *Shanjian jing* was excerpted from the *Subāhu-sūtra*, being of the same class as the "Universal Gateway Chapter" of the *Lotus Sūtra*. Since there are such differences, it is counted as a single translation.)

The above newly translated duplicate version is a different translation of the same text as the two older translations of the *Xumoti jing* and Bodhiruci's earlier translated *Miaohui tongnü jing*. It forms the 98th fascicle from the beginning to the middle. (That earlier translated copy of the *Miaohui jing* was in the Eastern Capital; a search for it has not yet recovered it.)

The 31st Assembly: The Upāsikā Gaṅgottarā, in the same fascicle as the preceding.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang.
The above newly translated single version forms the 98th fascicle from the middle to the end.

Translated by Buddhaśānta, Tripiṭaka master of the Northern Wei; fifth translation; compared, matched, and included.

(The attribution on copies of this sūtra to Dharmarakṣa is an error; the *Litoushi nü jing* was translated by Dharmarakṣa, as is shown below.)

The 34th Assembly: Bodhisattva Guṇaratnasaṅkusumita, together with the following, in one fascicle.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang.

The 35th Assembly: The Devaputra Suvicintitamati, in the same fascicle as the preceding.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang; second translation.

The 36th Assembly: The Devaputra Susthitamati, in four fascicles.
Translated by Dharmagupta, Tripiṭaka master of the Sui; appears in the Neidian lu; seventh translation; compared, matched, and included.
The above older translation of a duplicate version is a different translation of the same text as the *Ruhuan sanmei jing* and *Sheng shanzhanyi jing*, and others. It runs from the 102nd fascicle to the 105th.

The above older translation of a duplicate version is a different translation of the same text as the *Huishang pusa wen da shanquan jing* and others. It runs from the middle of the 106th fascicle to the end of the 108th fascicle. (The label on the sūtra text giving "Western Jin" is an error.)

The 39th Assembly: Elder Bhadrapāla, in two fascicles.
Translated by Jñānagupta, Tripiṭaka master of the Sui; first translation; compared, matched, and included.
The above older translation of a duplicate version was originally titled the *Yishi jing*, and is now newly retitled the Assembly of the Elder Bhadrapāla. (The original *Yishi jing* had no preface of credible attestation; the one now in the *Baoji* was newly added.) It is a different translation of the same text as the *Xianshi jing*. It forms the 109th and 110th fascicles. (When this Bhadrapāla Assembly was compiled using the *Yishi jing*, some copies of the sūtra had been changed to incorporate the *Xianshi jing*. Although the Indic texts of the two sūtras do not differ, to substitute them arbitrarily is, in my humble opinion, impermissible.)

The 40th Assembly: The Maiden Śraddhā, together with the following three assemblies, in the same fascicle.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci of the Great Tang.
The above newly translated single version forms the beginning of the 111th fascicle.

Translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Northern Wei; second translation; compared, matched, and included.
The above older translation of a duplicate version was titled *Mile pusa suowen jing*. It is a different translation of the same text as the *Dacheng fangdeng yao hui jing*. It forms the middle of the 111th fascicle. (For this Eight Dharmas Assembly, there is a translated treatise in five fascicles; the text of the *Yao hui jing* merely contains minor corruptions and omissions.)

The 42nd Assembly: Inquiries of Maitreya Bodhisattva, together with the preceding three assemblies, in the same fascicle.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang; third translation.
The above newly translated duplicate version is a different translation of the same text as the older translated *Mile pusa suowen benyuan jing* and others. It forms the end of the 111th fascicle. (In the sūtra

20.22.3

those titled as translated by Dharmarakṣa of the Western Jin are erroneous; the old *Original Vows Sūtra* is indeed the translation by Dharmarakṣa, as shown below).
Assembly 43: Assembly of Samantaprabhā Bodhisattva, one fascicle. Old translation.
Now appended to the Qin catalogue. Compared with the Indic text and incorporated. Third translation.
The above is an old translation of an alternative version, originally the single-fascicle *Mahāratnakūṭa-sūtra*, newly retitled *Assembly of Samantaprabhā Bodhisattva*. It is an alternative translation of the same text as the two sūtras *Moheyan baoyan* (*Mahāyāna Ratnālaṃkāra*) and *Fo yiri moni bao* (*The Sun-Left Mani Jewel of the Buddha*). It corresponds to fascicle 112. This old Ratnakūṭa sūtra has an explanatory commentary in four fascicles.
Assembly 44: Assembly of the Heap of Jewels (Ratnarāśi), two fascicles.
Translated by the monk Shi Daogong of the Northern Liang. Compared with the Indic text and incorporated.

It extends from the middle of fascicle 115 to the end of fascicle 116. Those manuscripts titled as translated by Saṅghapāla are in error.
Assembly 47: Assembly of Ratnacūḍa Bodhisattva, two fascicles.
Translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master of the Western Jin.
The above is an old translation of an alternative version, also called *Sūtra on the Pure Practices of Bodhisattvas*. It is an alternative translation of the same text as the *Ratnacūḍa Chapter* of the *Mahāsaṃnipāta* and the *Sūtra on the Pure Practices of Bodhisattvas* produced by Kang Senghui. It corresponds to fascicles 117 and 118. This Ratnacūḍa Assembly has an explanatory commentary in one fascicle.
Assembly 48: Assembly of Queen Śrīmālā, one fascicle.
Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang. Third translation.
The above is a new translation of an alternative version, being an alternative translation of the same text as the old *Śrīmālādevī-siṃhanāda-eka-yāna-mahā-upāya-nirdeśa-sūtra* and others. It corresponds to fascicle 119.

Newly translated by Bodhiruci, Tripiṭaka master of the Great Tang. Second translation.
The above is a new translation of an alternative version, being an alternative translation of the same text as the old *Vyāsa-paripṛcchā-sūtra*. It corresponds to fascicle 120 (when comparing this new translation with the old sūtra, the latter part of its text is incomplete, lacking nearly one sheet; some have spliced the old sūtra into it, intending to make its meaning fully complete).

Translated by Dharmakṣema, Tripiṭaka master from India, under the Northern Liang. Taken from the Fashang Catalogue. First translation.

The above single sūtra is an alternative translation of the same text as the Ratnakūṭa's tenth assembly, the *Assembly on the Universal Gate of Mañjuśrī* (the Zhou Catalogue took it to be an offshoot extract of the *Lotus Sūtra*, which is an egregious error.

Translated by Dharmarakṣa, Tripiṭaka master of the Western Jin. First translation.
