Kawano argues that a portion found in the "Yaowang rulai pin" but absent from the "Fashi pin" seems to be Dharmarakṣa’s own insertion. The inserted part concerns the Dharma offering 法供養 of Prince Shangai 善蓋太子, which bears a resemblance to the "Fa gongyang pin" 法供養品 in the Weimo jing 維摩經. However, it is certain that it is not a direct citation from Zhiqian’s 支謙 Weimojie jing 維摩詰經 T474, an earlier translation. Kawano concludes that it is more plausible that the insertion in T263 is adapted from Dharmarakṣa’s own Weimo jing rather than from Zhiqian’s T474, considering that Zhiqian’s "Fa gongyang pin" and Dharmarakṣa’s "Yaowang rulai pin" are alternate translations of the same text 同本の異譯.
