Buddhacarita-sūtra-saṃgraha, 5 fascicles (composed by the Bodhisattva Aśvaghoṣa; also called Fo benxing jing).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Dharmakṣema under the Northern Liang. Single translation.
Fo benxing jing, 7 fascicles (also named Fo benxing zan zhuan).
Translated by the śramaṇa Shi Baoyun of Liangzhou under the Song. (Single translation.)
The Great Zhou Catalogue mistakenly catalogued the above two under Mahāyāna retranslated sūtras, stating that they were different translations of the same text as the sixty-fascicle Buddhacaritasaṃgraha-sūtra.
The above two anthologies, making 12 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Avadānaśataka-sūtra, 10 fascicles. 1 wrapper.
Translated by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian under the Wu.
Found in the Neidian lu. Single translation (supplemented).
Avadānamukha-sūtra, 20 fascicles (also called Chuyao lun; or in 19 fascicles).
Translated during the Fu Qin dynasty by the śramaṇa Zhu Fonian of Liangzhou under the Yao Qin. Single translation.
Damamūkanidāna-sūtra, 13 fascicles (also in 15 fascicles, 16 fascicles, or 17 fascicles).
Translated in Gaochang Commandery by the śramaṇa Huijue and others of Liangzhou under the Yuan Wei. Found in the Fanjing tu. (Single translation.)
(Careful examination of the Liang śramaṇa Sengyou's preface to the Xianyu jing shows that Huijue and eight other monks from Hexi traveled in search of the Way to the Great Monastery of Khotan, where they happened upon the quinquennial assembly. The eight individuals divided up to listen, each recording what they heard, and upon returning to Gaochang, they assembled it into a single work, which is the above Damamūkanidāna-sūtra. The catalogues of earlier dynasties all classified it in the sūtra basket. Now, seeing that it is a collective compilation of things heard and not the original recitation of Ānanda, what difference is there between this and other anthologies? Cataloguing it among canonical sūtras would indeed be improper; hence it is now transferred to the catalogue of anthologies and biographies. The two texts Chuyao and Baiyuan are also distinct compilations and likewise not the original recitations, so they are appended here as well.)
The above two anthologies, making 33 fascicles, occupy 4 wrappers (8 fascicles in each of the first three wrappers, and 9 fascicles in the fourth wrapper).
Daodi jing, 1 fascicle (sometimes with the character 'Da' prefixed; an excerpt of the Xiuxing jing; without a condensed foreign text).
Translated by the Parthian Tripiṭaka Master An Shigao under the Later Han. Supplemented. Second translation.
The above single sūtra is a variant translation of a small portion of the later Xiuxing daodi jing. (According to Master An Daoan's preface, the śramaṇa Saṅgharakṣa compiled the essentials of the scriptures into a single work of twenty-seven chapters. Shigao selected seven chapters from what Rakṣa compiled to render into Chinese. Since both the chapter names and their number correspond, we know this was translated by An Shigao. This scripture's seven chapters total eighteen sheets; the various catalogues all claim it has two fascicles, which is an error.)
Xiuxing daodi jing, 6 fascicles (or simply called Xiuxing jing; or in 7 fascicles).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Dharmarakṣa under the Western Jin. Third translation. Of the three translations, one is lost.
The above two sūtras are different translations of the same text, composed seven hundred years after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa by the Western Regions śramaṇa Saṅgharakṣa (Saṅgharakṣa is rendered Zhonghu in the language of this land).
It is unreasonable that older catalogues classified them as sūtras. There is no difference between its author and that of the subsequent Saṅgharakṣa-saṃcaya-sūtra; how could one be recorded among canonical scriptures while the other is placed among anthologies? Since precedents exist, they are appended here.
Saṅgharakṣa-saṃcaya-sūtra, 3 fascicles (composed by Saṅgharakṣa; or in 5 fascicles).
Translated under the Fu Qin.
The above three anthologies, making 10 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Śatāvadāna-sūtra, 4 fascicles (composed by Saṅghasena; or in 5 fascicles).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Guṇavṛddhi under the Xiao Qi. (Single translation.)
Bodhisattvāvadāna-sūtra, 3 fascicles (composed by Saṅghasena; or in 4 fascicles, or 2 fascicles).
Translated by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian under the Wu. Single translation.
Mahāyāna-prayogamukha-sūtrasaṃgraha, 3 fascicles.
Translated by the śramaṇa Shi Zhiyan of Zhixiang Monastery under the Great Tang. Newly entered into the catalogue.
The above three anthologies, making 10 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Fu fazang yinyuan zhuan, 6 fascicles (or without the word 'yinyuan'; or in 4 fascicles, or 2 fascicles).
Translated jointly by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka Master Kiṅkara and Tanyao under the Yuan Wei. Third translation. (Of the three translations, two are lost.)
Zuochan sanmei jing, 3 fascicles (also named Pusa chanfa jing, or Chan jing; or in 2 fascicles).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. First translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.
Furthermore, in various catalogues there is an Aranya-xichanfa jing in 2 fascicles, said to be a variant translation of the same text as the Zuochan sanmei jing and also translated by Master Kumārajīva. Upon examining its phrasing, the beginning and end are completely identical; it was divided into two works merely because of different titles. Since it is not a distinct translation, it should not circulate concurrently.
Fo yi jing, 1 fascicle (also called Fo yiwang jing).
Translated jointly by the Indian śramaṇa Zhu Luyan and Zhi Yue under the Wu. Supplemented. Single translation.
Weiri zanan jing, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Yuezhi upāsaka Zhi Qian under the Wu. (Supplemented. Single translation.)
Fo ban nihuan Mohe Jiaye fu Fo jing, 1 fascicle (also called Jiaye fu Fo ban niepan jing).
Translated by the Western Regions śramaṇa Zhu Tanwulan under the Eastern Jin. Single translation.
Pusa he sexū fa, 1 fascicle (also called jing).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. First translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.
Sipin xuefa jing, 1 fascicle (or without the character 'jing').
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Guṇabhadra under the Song. (Single translation.)
Fo ru niepan miji jinganglishi ailian jing, 1 fascicle.
Translator lost. (Now appended to the Qin catalogue. Single translation.)
Jiachanyan shuofa mojin ji jing, 1 fascicle (Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation noted by Master Daoan).
Now appended to the Western Qin catalogue. Single translation.
Fo zhishen jing, 1 fascicle (or called Zhishen jing).
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation noted by Master Daoan. Now appended to the Western Jin catalogue. Single translation. Supplemented.
Zhiyi jing, 1 fascicle (or called Fo zhiyi jing).
Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anonymous translation noted by Master Daoan. Now appended to the Western Jin catalogue. (Supplemented. Single translation.)
The above 11 anthologies, making 18 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Saṃyuktaratnapiṭaka-sūtra, 8 fascicles (or in 12 fascicles).
Translated jointly by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka Master Kiṅkara and Tanyao under the Yuan Wei. Single translation.
Nāgasenabhikṣu-sūtra, 2 fascicles (or simply called Naxian jing; or in 3 fascicles; translator lost; placed in the Eastern Jin catalogue). First text. (Of the two translations, one is lost.)
The above two anthologies, making 10 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Wumen chanjing yaofa, 1 fascicle (composed by the great meditation master Buddhamitra).
Translated by the Kashmiri Tripiṭaka Master Dharmamitra under the Song. Supplemented. Second translation.
Dharmatrāta-dhyāna-sūtra, 2 fascicles (also named Aśubhā-dhyāna-sūtra: Xiuxing fangbian).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Buddhabhadra under the Eastern Jin. Single translation.
The above text was composed by Dharmatrāta and Buddhasena, who were men of Kashmīr. Buddhabhadra's master was a meditation instructor in that country. When Zhiyan traveled to the Western Regions, he also studied meditation under Buddhasena.
The fourteen scriptures from the Zuochan sanmei jing onward were catalogued under canonical sūtras in the Zhou Catalogue. Because they are not the spoken words of the Buddha, they are now transferred here. Although the Saṃyuktaratnapiṭaka-sūtra collects words of the Buddha, it is intermingled with other narratives and is not entirely spoken by the Buddha, so it is entered among the anthologies.
Chanfa yaojie, 2 fascicles (also named Chanyao jing).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. (First translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.)
Chanyao heyu jing, 1 fascicle (said to be the 'Heyu' chapter of the Chanyao jing).
Translator lost from the Later Han. Supplemented. (Single translation.)
Neishen guan zhangju jing, 1 fascicle.
Translator lost from the Later Han. Supplemented. Single translation.
Faguan jing, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Dharmarakṣa under the Western Jin. Supplemented.
Siwei yaolüe fa, 1 fascicle (sometimes with the character 'jing' added).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. Supplemented. Second translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.
Shi'er you jing, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Western Regions śramaṇa Kāludaka under the Eastern Jin. Supplemented. Second translation. Of the three translations, two are lost.
Jiu za piyu jing, 2 fascicles (also called Za piyu ji jing).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Kang Senghui under the Wu. Supplemented. Single translation.
Za piyu jing, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Yuezhi Tripiṭaka Master Lokakṣema under the Later Han. Supplemented. Single translation.
The above 10 anthologies, making 13 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Za piyu jing, 2 fascicles (also named Pusa duren jing).
Translator lost. Placed in the Later Han catalogue. (Single translation; supplemented.)
Za piyu jing, 1 fascicle (compiled by the bhikṣu Daolüe).
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. Supplemented. Single translation.
Aśokāvadāna-sūtra, 1 fascicle.
Translator lost. Now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue. (Supplemented; single translation.)
Aśokarāja-sūtra, 10 fascicles (sometimes with the character 'Da' prefixed).
Translated by the Funan Tripiṭaka Master Saṅghapāla under the Liang. (Supplemented; second translation.)
The above 4 anthologies, making 14 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Aśokarājadāna, 7 fascicles (also called Da Ayuwang jing; or in 5 fascicles).
Translated by the Parthian Tripiṭaka Master An Faqin under the Western Jin. First translation.
The above two works are different translations of the same text. King Aśoka appeared in the world more than one hundred years after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa, and only then was this chronicle produced; its classification among Mahāyāna scriptures in the Great Zhou Catalogue is erroneous. (Catalogues such as that of Fei Changfang further state that Saṅghapāla made another translation of the Aśokarājadāna in five fascicles, which is an error; the previous sūtra is this very chronicle, and should not be entered twice.)
Ayuwang xi Huaimu yinyuan jing, 1 fascicle (also named Wangzi Fayi Huaimu yinyuan jing).
Translated during the Qin by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Dharmanandin under the Fu Qin. Supplemented. Second translation. Of the three translations, two are lost.
Si Ahan mu chaojie, 2 fascicles. Composed by the arhat Vasubhadra.
Translated by the Western Regions śramaṇa Kumārabuddhi and others under the Fu Qin. Supplemented. (Single translation.)
The above 3 anthologies, making 10 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Dharmapada, 2 fascicles (also called Fajuji; composed by the Venerable Dharmatrāta).
Translated by the Indian śramaṇa Vighna and others under the Wu. First translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.
The Abhidharma-vibhāṣā-śāstra, fascicle 1, states: 'As in the Dharmapada, the World-Honoured One preached in various ways in diverse towns and localities for the sake of sentient beings. After the Buddha's nirvāṇa, the Venerable Dharmatrāta (meaning Fajiū) collected these various teachings: regarding the meaning of impermanence, he established the Chapter on Impermanence, up to establishing the Chapter on Brāhmaṇas for the meaning of brāhmaṇas.' Therefore, we know this scripture was composed by Dharmatrāta. The Zhou Canon Catalogue catalogued it both under Mahāyāna sūtras and within the anthologies and biographies; recording it redundantly before and after is a grave error.
Dharmapada-avadāna-sūtra, 4 fascicles (also named Faju benmo jing; or in 5 fascicles, or 6 fascicles).
Translated jointly by the śramaṇas Shi Fali and Faju under the Western Jin. Second translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.
The above work clarifies the similarities and differences with the preceding Dharmapada. The former merely compiled the verse stanzas without including prose commentary. This latter work, however, also recounts the origins of the verses: under what circumstances the World-Honoured One spoke them. Compared with the verses of the former text, this version is somewhat abridged and incomplete. Furthermore, there are additions and omissions between the two sets of verse text. The Zhou Catalogue's classification of it among Mahāyāna sūtras is mistaken.
Kāśyapa-saṃgīti-sūtra, 1 fascicle. Translated by the Parthian Tripiṭaka Master An Shigao under the Later Han.
Supplemented. First translation. Of the three translations, two are lost.
Zhuanji sanzang ji zazang zhuan, 1 fascicle.
Translator lost. Now appended to the Eastern Jin catalogue. Single translation. Supplemented.
Sanhui jing, 1 fascicle (Sengyou's catalogue lists it as an anomalous Liang-territory scripture noted by Master Daoan).
Now appended to the Liang catalogue. Single translation. Supplemented.
Abhidharma-pañcadharma-caryā-sūtra, 1 fascicle (also called Apidan kuhui jing, or without the character 'xing').
Translated by the Parthian Tripiṭaka Master An Shigao under the Later Han. Supplemented. Single translation.
Āgama-mukhavyākhyāna-dvādaśāṅgapratītyasamutpāda-sūtra, 1 fascicle (also simply called Ahan koujie jing, or named Duan shi'er yinyuan jing).
Translated jointly by the Parthian upāsaka An Xuan and Yan Fotiao under the Later Han. Single translation.
Xiao daodi jing, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Western Regions Tripiṭaka Master Zhi Yao under the Later Han. (Supplemented.) Single translation.
Mañjuśrī-praṇidhāna-sūtra, 1 fascicle (sometimes with the character 'ji' added).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Buddhabhadra under the Eastern Jin. Supplemented. Single translation.
Names of Six Bodhisattvas, 1 fascicle (Fei Changfang's Canon Catalogue lists it as Also Names of Bodhisattvas, and It Should Also Be Recited and Upheld).
Translator lost from the Later Han. (Supplemented; single translation.)
Śatapañcāśatka-buddhastotra, 1 fascicle. Composed by the Venerable Mātṛceṭa.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Yijing under the Great Tang. Newly entered into the catalogue. Single translation.
Zan Guanshiyin Pusa song, 1 fascicle. Translated by the śramaṇa Shi Zhihui of the Foshouji Monastery under the reign of Empress Regnant Wu of the Great Tang.
(Recorded in the Great Zhou Catalogue.) Supplemented. Single translation.
The above 12 anthologies, making 16 fascicles, share a wrapper.
Wuming luocha ji, 1 fascicle (also named Wuming luocha jing; or in 2 fascicles).
Supplemented. Single translation. Now appended to the Qin catalogue. Translator lost.
Biography of Bodhisattva Aśvaghoṣa, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. (Supplemented; single translation.)
Biography of Bodhisattva Nāgārjuna, 1 fascicle. Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin.
(Supplemented; single translation.)
Biography of Bodhisattva Āryadeva, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Kumārajīva under the Yao Qin. (Supplemented; single translation.)
Biography of Dharma Master Vasubandhu, 1 fascicle (here translated as Tianqin).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Paramārtha under the Chen. Supplemented. Second translation. (Of the two translations, one is lost.)
Longshen pusa wei Zhanduojia wang shuofa yaoji, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Kashmiri Tripiṭaka Master Guṇavarman under the Song. Found in the Old Tang Catalogue. First translation.
Quanfa zhuwang yaoji, 1 fascicle. Composed by the Bodhisattva Nāgārjuna.
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Saṅghavarman under the Song. Supplemented. Second translation.
Nāgārjunabodhisattva-suhṛllekha, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Yijing under the reign of Empress Regnant Wu of the Great Tang. Newly entered into the catalogue. Third translation.
The above three works are different translations of the same text. (The first two texts of verses were combined into one fascicle in various sūtra canons; they are now divided into two rolls.)
Piṇḍola-bhāradvāja-rājā-Udayana-deśanā-sūtra, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Guṇabhadra under the Song. Single translation.
There is also a Binduolu wei wang shuofa jing in 1 fascicle, the text of which is identical to this; hence it is not entered redundantly.
Method for Inviting Piṇḍola, 1 fascicle (sometimes with the character 'jing' added).
Translated by the Song śramaṇa Shi Huijian. (Second translation. Of the two translations, one is lost.)
Fenbie yebao lüe, 1 fascicle. Composed by the Bodhisattva Dayong (sometimes with the character 'ji' added).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Saṅghavarman under the Song. Supplemented. Single translation.
Jiading biqiu shuo danglai bian jing, 1 fascicle.
An anonymous translation listed in Sengyou's catalogue. Now appended to the Song catalogue. Supplemented. Single translation.
Great Arhat Nandimitra's Record on the Abiding of the Dharma, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Xuanzang under the Great Tang. Found in the Neidian lu. Single translation.
Sāṃkhyakārikā-bhāṣya (Golden Seventy Treatise), 3 fascicles (also called Sengqu lun; or in 2 fascicles).
Translated by the Indian Tripiṭaka Master Paramārtha under the Chen. Single translation.
The above treatise was composed by the non-Buddhist sage Kapila, elucidating the twenty-five truths. This is what is meant in the scriptures by the Kapila treatise of the Sāṃkhya. (Fei Changfang's and the Neidian catalogues both list Jin qishi lun in two fascicles and Sengqu lun in three fascicles among Paramārtha's translations; retaining both titles is an error.)
Daśapadārtha-śāstra, 1 fascicle.
Translated by the Tripiṭaka Master Xuanzang under the Great Tang. (Found in the Fanjing tu. Single translation.)
The above treatise was composed by the Victorious One Candramati, elucidating the ten categories. (Ulūka the sage originally established only six categories; Candramati added four more to complete the ten categories. Since the work discusses both the origin and the additions, it is titled Daśapadārtha-śāstra of the Vaiśeṣika.)
This is what is called the Vaiśeṣika treatise. (Neither the Sāṃkhya nor the Vaiśeṣika treatises belong to the Buddha-Dharma, but among non-Buddhist systems these two are paramount. They are explained here so that broad learners may thoroughly know the doctrines of heterodox paths.)
The above 15 anthologies, making 17 fascicles, share a wrapper.
