Bodhisattva-bhūmi-dhāra-sūtra, 10 fascicles (also called the Bhūmidhāra-śāstra; or 8 fascicles in 1 case),
Translated in Guzang by Dharmakṣema, Indian Tripiṭaka Master of the Northern Liang.
(The above single sūtra begins with verses of refuge and homage, drawn from the Bodhisattvabhūmi in the Maulībhūmi of the Yogācārabhūmi. In former times, the Śramaṇa Fashang, Superintendent of Buddhist Clergy of the Northern Qi, replied to a Koguryŏ monk: "The Bhūmidhāra was received by the Bhikṣu Asaṅga from Maitreya." Asaṅga is indeed the Bodhisattva Asaṅga. Furthermore, according to the Record of the Bodhisattva-bhūmi-dhāra-sūtra by the Liang Śramaṇa Sengyou: "The Bodhisattva-bhūmi-dhāra-sūtra in eight fascicles has twenty-seven chapters divided into three sections: the first section has eighteen chapters, the second section four chapters, and the third section five chapters. The text does not give alternate titles, yet the present copy is sometimes titled Bodhisattva-bhūmi-sūtra." Now, upon examining the end of the sūtra, there are indeed multiple titles; the text also says: named Bodhisattva-bhūmi, named Bodhisattvapiṭaka-mātṛkā, named Mahāyānasaṃgraha, named Indestructible Manifestation, and named Root of Pure Unobstructed Wisdom. Sengyou's assertion that it does not give alternate titles is incorrect. Furthermore, upon examining various catalogues, the separate Bodhisattva-prātimokṣa-sūtra preserved from Dharmakṣema's translations is mistakenly called the Bodhisattva-bhūmi-sūtra by some).
Bodhisattva-kuśala-śīla-sūtra, 9 fascicles (also called Bodhisattva-bhūmi; or 10 fascicles),
Translated by Guṇavarman and others, Tripiṭaka Master of Kashmīr under the Song.
(The various catalogues all state that the above single sūtra is an alternate translation of the same text as the Bhūmidhāra-sūtra. Now, examining the text and doctrinal meaning in detail, they are by no means without difference: the Kuśala-śīla-sūtra has an introductory chapter at the beginning and an upholding [conclusion] at the end, while the Bhūmidhāra-sūtra has neither. In the Precepts chapter of the Bhūmidhāra, there is the text for receiving the bodhisattva precepts and the Bodhisattva-prātimokṣa, whereas the Kuśala-śīla-sūtra lacks them. Beyond this, the textual meaning is largely identical. The Bhūmidhāra also originates from the Yogācāra[bhūmi], and various catalogues have catalogued it under the treatises. Since there are discrepancies, we do not venture to make a definitive judgment. Furthermore, according to the Record of the Bodhisattva-kuśala-śīla-sūtra by the Liang Śramaṇa Sengyou: "This is named Kuśala-śīla, named Bodhisattva-bhūmi, named Bodhisattva-vinaya-mātṛkā, named Tathāgatagarbha, named Root of All Wholesome Dharmas, named Land of Peace and Bliss, and named Collection of All Pāramitās—having seven titles in all. The first fascicle first presents Upāli's question on the ritual for receiving precepts; the second fascicle only then begins with the title 'Thus have I heard.' Listing the chapters in sequence, there are thirty in all. There is also an alternate text titled Bodhisattva-bhūmi-sūtra." Now, upon checking the text of the sūtra, it differs from Sengyou's record: the beginning of the sūtra immediately has "Thus have I heard" and lacks Upāli's question on the ritual for receiving precepts, having only nine fascicles. That Upāli's question on the ritual for receiving precepts is precisely the later single-fascicle Bodhisattva-kuśala-śīla-sūtra. If this is taken as the first fascicle, it accords with Sengyou's record. However, this text has long been separated from the Bhūmidhāra-sūtra; suddenly combining them into ten fascicles might cause doubt. This Kuśala-śīla-sūtra, like the Bhūmidhāra, is also divided into three sections: the first section is named Bodhisattva-bhūmi, having twenty chapters; the second section is named According with Abiding, having four chapters; the third section is named Ultimate Bhūmi, having six chapters. Sengyou's statement that the chapters are listed in sequence was likely made without thorough investigation).
Sūtra on the Purification of Karmic Hindrances, 1 fascicle, translator lost; now appended to the Qin catalogue; single translation.
The above two sūtras in 10 fascicles are in the same case (As for the Sūtra on the Purification of Karmic Hindrances, Fashang's catalogue states it was translated by Dharmarakṣa; upon examining its phrasing, its tenor is completely different from the sūtras translated by the Venerable Dharmarakṣa, hence it is classified as a lost translator).

newly entered into the Zhenyuan catalogue.

Sūtra on the Deportment of the Upāsaka's Five Precepts, 1 fascicle,
Translated by Guṇavarman, Tripiṭaka Master of Kashmīr under the Song.
(This Sūtra on the Deportment of the Upāsaka's Five Precepts was mistakenly catalogued in various catalogues among the Hīnayāna vinaya. Its beginning consists of the bodhisattva precepts, and its end consists of the ritual text for receiving bodhisattva precepts and methods for relinquishment and confession; since it is not Hīnayāna, it is now moved and catalogued here).

(Note: In the older catalogues, the Ratnarāśi-sūtra and Kāśyapa-sūtra were classified under Mahāyāna vinaya; they are now catalogued under the Ratnakūṭa assembly and therefore are not listed again. The Mahāvaipulya-trisaṃvara-sūtra is the same text as the Trisaṃvara Assembly of the Ratnakūṭa, and the Vinayaviniścaya-sūtra is the same text as the Upāli Assembly of the Ratnakūṭa; they are now all catalogued under the Ratnakūṭa section and thus are not recorded here).
